It’s Looking Extremely Likely That QAnon Is A Leftist Prank On Trump Supporters https://t.co/cb2uxh4tku via @broderick

Oh my goodness, that would be so funny if the whole QAnon thing was cribbed from a 1999 novel by a collective of left-wing anarchists operating under the pseudonym “Luther Blisset”, someone who just happens to be a black UK footballer.

In an incredibly 2018 move, it seems there’s a chance the terrifying far-right paedolluminati conspiracy theory dominating Trump rallies is actually a leftist prank stemming from Italian activists who named themselves after former Watford midfielder Luther Blissett. https://t.co/gbWlCgin4i

Here’s a thread from the Luther Blisset Project people, who are now operating under the name “Wu Ming” (ie “no name”). You can download the novel “Q” from their site here.

Looks like our old novel Q is still (nay, ever more!) being used in the US to troll/trigger the alt-right. https://t.co/wj4NsSktIV
