The ideals of Qanon were implicitly accepted into the American right, and have been working their way into the mainstream. How do you think MTG got where she is?
The Republican party is the party of conspiracy nuts. If you don't like it, then kick them out. But you can't, because a significant percentage of your group would be gone, and a larger percentage don't disagree with much of what the Q-tards believe.
MTG got where she is because she's a representative from a small, hard red district. The whole country could absolutely hate a representative and it makes no difference because it's the populations of those small districts that vote.
It seems you don't read and are the one that is fucking obtuse. Your link says 25% (not a larger percentage) agree with some "central tenets" of QAnon (as do 16% of the population as a whole), the central tenets that is mentioned in the article being a pedophile ring in the government, which to be quite honest is not that far fetched considered the whole Epstein ordeal, so not surprising to see these stats.
It's easy to see why such a large portion agree with that CENTRAL TENET (capitalizing so you can read it when you skim this).
If you actually go into the study you might even see that compared to the 25% of republicans, 14% of independents and 9% of Democrats are also QAnon believers. So to say that it's solely a Republican issue is disingenuous no matter how the media paints it (even the article you linked over exaggerating its source).
Don't be so fucking obtuse and learn to read past headlines
Now you're being deliberately obtuse, and/or disingenuous in your response.
> the central tenets that is mentioned in the article being a pedophile ring in the government
The central tenets (plural) of the study the article references are as follows:
-The government, media, and financial worlds in the US are controlled by a group of Satan-worshipping pedophiles who run a global child sex-trafficking operation.
-There is a storm coming soon that will sweep away the elites in power and restore the rightful leaders.
-Because things have gotten so far off track, true American patriots may have to resort to violence in order to save our country.
Quite obviously that's significantly more extreme than your ridiculously watered-down interpretation of the survey's questions.
More interesting tidbits:
-43% of QAnon believers are Republicans, compared to 19% of Democrats.
-QAnon believers are 2.7x as likely to be conservatives than liberals.
-QAnon believers are 4.6x to get their news from far-right sources than from mainstream news outlets.
QAnon is predominately a right-wing problem. Trump rallies were rife with Q imagery. It also permeated the January 6 riots.
In your mind, "both sides" is valid. In reality, "both sides" is complete horseshit. The right is full of morons and assholes, and imo intentionally obtuse and/or disingenuous people such as yourself fall squarely into the latter bucket.
The Republican party is the party of conspiracy nuts. If you don't like it, then kick them out. But you can't, because a significant percentage of your group would be gone, and a larger percentage don't disagree with much of what the Q-tards believe.
