QAnon is a conspiracy theory that emerged in 2017, claiming that a secret cabal of Satan-worshipping pedophiles controls the world and is being opposed by former President Donald Trump. Followers believe that this group includes prominent politicians, celebrities, and business leaders. The theory suggests that Trump is working to expose and dismantle this network. The movement gained traction through social media platforms, where anonymous posts from a user known as Q sparked widespread speculation and discussion. Despite numerous debunkings, QAnon has influenced various political and social movements, leading to real-world events and actions by its adherents.
