“Open your eyes,” the online post began, claiming, “Many in our govt worship Satan.”
That warning, published on a freewheeling online message board in October 2017, was the beginning of the movement now known as QAnon. Paul Furber was its first apostle.
The outlandish claim made perfect sense to Mr. Furber, a South African software developer and tech journalist long fascinated with American politics and conspiracy theories, he said in an interview. He still clung to “Pizzagate,” the debunked online lie that liberal Satanists were trafficking children from a Washington restaurant. He was also among the few who understood an obscure reference in the message to “Operation Mockingbird,” an alleged C.I.A. scheme to manipulate the news media.
You're afraid to see something you don't agree with? You must be very delicate. Like a snowflake.
Stick it where the sun don’t shine. I’ve seen so much that I don’t agree with that it makes me puke. Where would you like me to start? HRC bugging Trump Tower & the White House, destroying her emails, killing 100+ people, Dems being in bed with China, Fake Pres Biden being in cahoots with Ukraine & China, Dems stealing an election from the American People. I won’t even start with all of the satanic Illuminati crap. Legs to stand on? YOUVE GOT NONE.
Your asshole? You want me to stick it in your asshole? That's a hard pass for me.
