Размах фантазии в QAnon шире, а приверженность адептов глубже.
Но преуменьшать влияние Пиццагейта не стоит - байка про сатанинские ритуалы тайных педофилов достигла большого числа людей и распространялась в числе прочих Майклом Флинном, будущим советником президента по национальной безопасности.
In 2010, an ABC News/Washington Post poll found 31 percent of Republicans said they thought Obama was born outside the United States. In 2011, a New York Times/CBS News poll had that number at 45 percent, and a Fox News poll had it at 37 percent. The Economist/YouGov poll, conducted in mid-December, also showed 49 percent of Republicans saying it was either definitely or probably true that "leaked email from some of Hillary Clinton's campaign staffers contained code words for pedophilia, human trafficking and satanic ritual abuse," as was alleged in widely disseminated fake-news stories. A Public Policy Polling survey taken about a week earlier found 45 percent of Republicans saying either they believed that Clinton was connected to a child sex ring or that they weren't sure whether that rumor was true. Yes, this is significant evidence of contemptible, toxic ignorance — the sustaining lifeblood of hatred. But no, it's not limited to Republicans. In the polls listed above, an average 14 percent of Democrats shared the Republicans' skepticism that Obama was born in Hawaii, and an average 18 percent of Democrats echoed the utterly absurd Republican suspicions about Clinton's involvement in organized pedophilia. Not only is our nation divided, it's cracked. https://www.chicagotribune.com/columns/eric-zorn/ct-polling-ignorance-facts-trump-zorn-perspec-0106-md-20170105-column.html
