Fifteen percent of Americans agree with the central false tenet of the QAnon conspiracy theory: that the government and other entities are controlled by Satan-worshipping pedophiles running a child sex trafficking ring, according to a new poll.

Among Republicans the survey, released Wednesday by the Public Religion Research Institute, found that 23 percent of respondents agreed with the statement that “the government, media and financial worlds in the U.S. are controlled by a group of Satan-worshipping pedophiles who run a global child sex trafficking operation.”

That number declines to 14 percent among independents and 8 percent among Democrats.

The survey also found that 20 percent of Americans believe another central part of the conspiracy theory, that “there is a storm coming soon that will sweep away the elites in power and restore the rightful leaders."

Twenty-eight percent of Republicans surveyed agreed with the statement, compared to 18 percent of independents and 14 percent of Democrats.

The poll also found that 15 percent of survey respondents said that “because things have gotten so far off track, true American patriots may have to resort to violence in order to save our country.”

Twenty-eight percent of Republicans polled said that they agreed with the statement, along with 13 percent of independents and 7 percent of Democrats.

Approximately 4 in 10 Americans who say that they trust far-right news outlets like OANN and Newsmax said that they believe the false theory that the government and other institutions are controlled by “Satan-worshipping pedophiles.”

White evangelical Protestants, Hispanic Protestants and Mormons are the most likely among religious groups polled to agree with any of the central beliefs of the QAnon conspiracy theory.

The survey was conducted online between March 8 and March 30 among 5,149 adults in the U.S. The margin of error is plus or minus 1.5 percentage points.

As opposed to the vast majority of people who believe Epstein killed himself, the Wuhan Flu was caused by a bat in a wet market, Biden won the election fair and square and has a 62% approval rating.

I think it is bunk and always has been.

NP. Really. Just continue with normal family life, work, friends, hobbies. You need not go to it, it will come to you. It would be better, IMHO, to know now... but it is your personal choice.

I'd advise minimizing, if not eliminating, your intake of MSM news.

If you change your mind, start with the link to the Q thread mentioned earlier.

The only way to be sure is to infiltrate them and document their activities. To do that, you have to BECOME them. A decent person is not able to do so.


Or you can listen to the decent people who are out there telling their stories, who were brought up in it and were fortunate enough to have escaped.

“You represent “the right” as much as McConnell and Romney”

And here we have a newer iteration of failed logic. And fantasy.

Just as the neocons accuse those who do not support their wretched beliefs of being Putinistas.

Each individual that escapes has their own story.

One is - Stanley Kubrick. Even made a movie about it, called "Eyes Wide Shut". It was the last movie he ever made, though. Before he "passed", he was adamant on retaining a critical 24 minutes to the film. He "died", and the 24 minutes was NOT included.

Another: Michael Jackson. He's been pummelled in the MSM (and, FR as well, at the time). He was not a child molester. But, his story can be viewed - on some snips in youtube.

There are many in Pedowood that know what's going on, and either hint about it (to protect their lives), or speak more loudly (seriously risking it).

“ how can they quantify whether or not someone is a satan-worshiping child trafficking elitist just by asking them?”

——————————————————————-

By how much they hate them.
