One day in June 2019, Jitarth Jadeja went outside to smoke a cigarette. For two years he'd been in the virtual cult of QAnon. But now he'd watched a YouTube video that picked apart the last element of the theory he believed in. Standing there smoking, he would say later, he felt "shattered."

ニューヨークタイムズは昨年の4月からRabbit holeという全8回のポッドキャストシリーズでQAnonの問題を取り上げていました。

Captain Christopher "Skipper" Sheldon : It builds character Mr. Preston of which you are in desperately short supply. The kind you only find on mountaintops, and deserts, and battlefields, and across oceans.
