Despite Q's long silence, QAnon beliefs have never been more prevalent
and as Donald Trump prepares to reenter the White House, excitement among the faithful is at an all-time high.
The article from WIRED discusses Kash Patel, a former National Security Council official under President Trump, who has become a central figure in the QAnon conspiracy theory community. Patel, previously known for his role in the Trump administration where he was involved in controversial decisions like the firing of the Inspector General overseeing Ukraine aid, has been portrayed by QAnon believers as a key player in their narrative of fighting a "deep state." His background includes a stint as a federal prosecutor, and he has been linked to efforts to discredit the Russia investigation. QAnon followers see him as a hero due to his actions against what they perceive as corrupt elements within the government, although there's no evidence he subscribes to QAnon beliefs himself. The article highlights how Patel's actions and the Trump administration's decisions have fueled conspiracy theories, with QAnon supporters interpreting these events as part of a grand battle against evil forces within the U.S. government.
