Two experts of extremist radicalization take us down the QAnon rabbit hole, exposing how the conspiracy theory ensnared countless Americans, and show us a way back to sanity. In January 2021, thousands descended on the U.S. Capitol to aid President Donald Trump in combating a shadowy cabal of Satan-worshipping pedophiles. Two women were among those who died that day. They, like millions of Americans, believed that a mysterious insider known as 'Q'is exposing a vast deep-state conspiracy. The QAnon conspiracy theory has ensnared many women, who identify as members of 'pastel QAnon,' answering the call to 'save the children'. With Pastels and Pedophiles, Mia Bloom and Sophia Moskalenko explain why the rise of QAnon should not surprise us: believers have been manipulated to follow the baseless conspiracy. The authors track QAnon's unexpected leap from the darkest corners of the Internet to the filtered glow of yogi-mama Instagram, a frenzy fed by the COVID-19 pandemic that supercharged conspiracy theories and spurred a fresh wave of Q-inspired violence. Pastels and Pedophiles connects the dots for readers, showing how a conspiracy theory with its roots in centuries-old anti-Semitic hate has adapted to encompass local grievances and has metastasized around the globe—appealing to a wide range of alienated people who feel that something is not quite right in the world around them.

Rechtspopulismus ist kein fehlgeleiteter Protest gegen Neoliberalismus und Postdemokratie, sondern eine Gestalt der konformistischen Revolte. Seinen Kern bilden rassistische und konspirationistische Mythen: Das Eigene werde von Fremden überwältigt, weil globalistische Eliten Souveränität und Gemeinschaft zerstört hätten. Leo Roepert analysiert, wie diese Mythen die Krisentendenzen der Gegenwart zu verarbeiten versuchen, ohne die gesellschaftlichen Ursachen wahrnehmen zu müssen. Dabei wird deutlich, dass der rechtspopulistische Kampf gegen »Globalismus« und »Überfremdung« darauf abzielt, eine Ordnung wiederherzustellen, die es vermeintlich schon immer gegeben hat.

QAnon has emerged as the defining conspiracy group of our times, and its far-right conspiracies are extraordinary for their breadth and extremity. Bringing together scholars from psychology, sociology, communications, and political science, this cutting-edge volume uses social science theory to investigate aspects of QAnon. Following an introduction to the 'who, what, and why' of QAnon, Part I focuses on the psychological characteristics of QAnon followers and the group's methods for recruiting and maintaining these followers. Part II includes chapters at the intersection of QAnon and society, arguing that society has constructed QAnon as a threat and the social need to belong motivates its followers. Part III discusses the role of communication in promoting and limiting QAnon support, while Part IV concludes by considering the future of QAnon. The Social Science of QAnon is vital reading for scholars and students across the social sciences, and for legal and policy professionals.

Objectif de l’étude : Afin de répondre aux enjeux sécuritaires qui découlent de la radicalisation des adolescents ou de leur adhésion aux théories du complot, il est primordial de comprendre les facteurs qui entrent en compte dans ces deux phénomènes. Cette recherche consiste à explorer ces facteurs, mais également les liens entre la radicalisation et le complotisme. Échantillon et méthodologie : Notre étude exploratoire se base sur un échantillon de 265 étudiants du troisième cycle secondaire de la Province de Liège. Cet échantillon a été établi par la méthode des quotas. Il s’agit d’une recherche exclusivement quantitative. Les données ont été collectées via un questionnaire diffusé en ligne. Résultats : Le degré de confiance envers les informations s’est révélé être un facteur de risque commun entre l’intention de radicalisme et la mentalité conspirationniste des répondants. Une corrélation significative a pu être mise en évidence entre la mentalité conspirationniste et l’intention de radicalisme. D’autres corrélations ont été significatives, mais ne montraient pas de liens entre nos deux phénomènes. Ces résultats sont tout de même à prendre avec précaution au vu de la représentabilité des résultats. Conclusion : Cette étude exploratoire peut servir de base pour de futures recherches plus coûteuses et plus chronophages et ainsi permettre des investigations plus approfondies sur le sujet. Objective : In order to meet the security challenges arising from teenagers being radicalized or believing in conspiracy theories, it is critical to understand the factors involved in both phenomena. This study investigates said factors as well as the links between radicalization and conspiracy theories. Sample and methodology: Our exploratory study is based on a sample of 265 students in the third cycle of secondary education and based in the province of Liege. This sample was created through a quota method. It is purely quantitative research. The data were collected through an online survey. Results: The level of trust towards the information is a risk factor shared both by people with radicalization intentions and by respondents with a conspiracy mindset. A significant correlation was established between radicalization intentions and a conspiracy mindset. Other correlations were significant, but didn’t show links between both of our phenomena. These results are, however, to be taken with caution given the representability of results. Conclusion: This exploratory study can provide the basis for the future, more expensive and time-consuming research and therefore allow for more in-depth investigations on the subject.
