QAnon has been widely described as a cult by researchers and former cult members alike. What’s more, the estimated number of people who have expressed belief in some of the core theories of the movement is around 30 million, suggesting it is about as popular as some mainstream religions.
It is a matter of fact that these quasi-religious ideas have become extremely popular, even if the exact character of the beliefs is hard to pin down. While there are non-Christian adherents to the Church of Q, the overwhelming majority appear to root themselves in Christian theology. Dominionist, gnostic, and millenarian elements are intermixed with New Age-y ideas and delivered with an evangelical fervour. Those who are drawn into the movement are able to interface with it like one would with a Rorschach test. They can see what they want to see while ignoring the rest of the picture.
