7:36Now PlayingYou know you're in a cult when the cult leader reveals the entire thing is actually made up, but you keep on culting anyway. That's what just happened with the QAnon conspiracy theory. In a recent HBO documentary "Q: Into the Storm", Ron Watkins – the man who happens to run Q's favorite social media site for posting 8chan – low-key admits to the filmmaker that he's been leading on a bunch of QAnon followers. He cracks a smile after saying that he posts conspiracy theories about politicians and the 2020 election, trying to look like an intelligence outfit. That smile is a near dead giveaway. And the filmmaker has been trying for three years to get Ron Watkins and his weird Dad to admit they've been posing as the mysterious Q for years.
Of course, none of this matters to QAnon supporters. They're too busy figuring out where Pelosi and Tom Hanks hide all the children!!! None of the regular Q watering holes are talking about this bombshell revelation, because once again, cults are based on the truth. They're based on the possibility of a lie one day becoming true by believing it hard enough.
