QAnon and other conspiracy theories / by Roberts, Kathryn,1990-Editor(DLC)n 2017054610;
Includes bibliographical references and index.What are the origins of the QAnon conspiracy theory? -- What are the dangers of legitimizing QAnon and similar conspiracy theories in the mainstream media? -- What are other well known conspiracy theories? -- How do people come back from conspiracy theories?QAnon appeared to be yet another laughable and fairly innocuous conspiracy theory whose popularity was made possible by the powers of the digital age. But it soon became clear that its followers, legitimized by President Donald Trump, were dead serious, going so far as storming the US Capitol after Trump lost his reelection bid. The viewpoints in this resource explore the conditions that allow for such conspiracy theories to begin and take hold in an educated society, and why these theories have gone from fringe element to the mainstream, even being taken seriously by some members of the US government.

QAnon, chaos, and the cross : Christianity and conspiracy theories / by Austin, Michael W.,editor.(CARDINAL)480684; Bock, Gregory L.,editor.(CARDINAL)867797;
Includes bibliographical references and index.""What is truth?" said jesting Pilate, and would not stay for an answer. -Francis Bacon. Although Christians are followers of the Truth, many find themselves tempted by the alternate "truths" offered by conspiracy theories. Christianity and conspiracy theories have had a long, complicated relationship. But today conspiracy theories are bringing our already polarized society to the brink of chaos. QAnon, the Big Lie, and anti-vaccination theories thrive online, disrupting faith communities. This timely essay collection explores the allure of conspiracy theories and their consequences--and ultimately offers gospel-based paths forward. Accessible to all concerned believers, QAnon, Chaos, and the Cross features scholars of religion, ethics, and public life on the following topics: evaluating evidence and forming beliefs, the Satanic Panic of the 1960s-1990s, understanding scientific methodology, conspiracy theories' appeal to those searching for meaning, the consequences of social media and echo chambers, productive dialog with people who hold different opinions, intellectualism in the life of faith, conspiracy theories in Scripture, QAnon's religious rhetoric. Complete with a guide to reasoning, which outlines both logical fallacies and intellectual virtues, QAnon, Chaos, and the Cross is an indispensable resource for all Christians seeking the truth.

Pastels and pedophiles : inside the mind of QAnon / by Bloom, Mia,1968-author.(CARDINAL)469642; Moskalenko, Sophia,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Loony lies and conspiracies : making sense of QAnon -- January 6, 2021 : Capitol Hill, the failed insurrection -- Red-pilling, right-wing conspiracies, and radicalization -- Life after Q -- Qontagion -- FaQs."In January 2021, thousands descended on the U.S. Capitol to aid President Donald Trump in combating a shadowy cabal of Satan-worshipping pedophiles. Two women died that day. They, like the millions of Americans who believe that a mysterious insider known as "Q" is exposing a vast deep-state conspiracy, were members of "pastel QAnon," a subgroup of mostly middle-class educated women that answered the call to "save the children." With Pastels and Pedophiles, Mia Bloom and Sophia Moskalenko explain why the rise of pastel QAnon should not surprise us: women have been manipulated to follow the baseless conspiracy. They track QAnon's unexpected leap from the darkest corners of the Internet to the filtered glow of yogi mama Instagram, fed by the COVID-19 pandemic that supercharged conspiracy theories and spurred a fresh wave of Q-inspired violence, and connect the dots for readers. Pastels and Pedophiles shows how a conspiracy theory with its roots in centuries-old anti-Semitic hate has adapted to encompass local grievances and has metastasized around the globe-appealing to a wide range of alienated people who feel that something is not quite right in the world around them. While QAnon claims to hate Hollywood, the book demonstrates how much of Q mythology is ripped from movie and television plot lines. Finally, Pastels and Pedophiles lays out what can be done about QAnon's corrosive effect on society to bring Q followers out of the rabbit hole back into the light"--

The quiet damage : QAnon and the destruction of the American family / by Cook, Jesselyn,1993-author.(CARDINAL)894868;

Hooked -- Shadow play -- Bob & chat -- Mom told me -- Trust the plan -- Part III: Escape. Two steps forward -- Dead to me -- Ever after -- Like moons and like suns -- One step back -- The upswing -- Epilogue: dear Adam.""SHED MY DNA": three excruciating words uttered by a QAnon-obsessed mother, once a highly respected lawyer, to her only son, once the closest person in her life. QAnon beliefs and adjacent conspiracy theories have had devastating political consequences as they've exploded in popularity. What's often overlooked is the lasting havoc they wreak on our society at its most basic and intimate level--the family. In The Quiet Damage, celebrated reporter Jesselyn Cook paints a harrowing portrait of the vulnerabilities that have left so many of us susceptible to outrageous falsehoods promising order, purpose, and control. Braided throughout are the stories of five American families: an elderly couple whose fifty-year romance takes a heartbreaking turn; millennial sisters of color who grew up in dire poverty--one to become a BLM activist, the other, a hardcore conspiracy theorist pulling her little boy down the rabbit hole with her; a Bay Area hippie-type and her business-executive fiancé, who must decide whether to stay with her as she turns into a stranger before his eyes; evangelical parents whose simple life in a sleepy suburb spirals into delusion-fueled chaos; and a rural mother-son duo who, after carrying each other through unspeakable tragedy, stop speaking at all as ludicrous untruths shatter a bond long thought unbreakable. Charting the arc of each believer's path from their first intersection with conspiracy theories to the depths of their cultish conviction, to--in some cases--their rejection of disinformation and the mending of fractured relationships, Cook offers a rare, intimate look into the psychology of how and why ordinary people come to believe the unbelievable. Profound, brilliantly researched, and beautifully written, The Quiet Damage lays bare how we have been taken hostage by grifters peddling lies built on false hope--and how we might release our loved ones, and ourselves, from their grasp"--Provided by publisher.
