Looks like our old novel Q is still (nay, ever more!) being used in the US to troll/trigger the alt-right.
Our novel was successful all over Europe but isn't very well known in the US, that's why media pundits are failing to recognize the (deranged) influence, see the connection and understand that someone's probably taking the piss out of fascists.
4,5k comments under the WP piece, people making all kinds of guesses and wild hypotheses, and no-one, no-one gets it. A conspiracy involving the church, dispatches written by an anonymous state agent who simply signs as «Q», tongue-in-cheek references to the book... 
Here's what we wrote about this QAnon thing about six weeks ago.
Maybe it started as an alternate reality game in order to troll those nazi creeps, but of course they would believe anything, if you troll them, you trigger them.
And those who don't really believe this bullshit are using it all the same, in order to spread confusion and baffle the media. Classic alt-right irony.
For those who don't know what the fuck we're talking about, here's a summing-up written by people who know little more than you (and we!) do. nytimes.com/2018/08/01/us/…
(Jeez, look at that pic, the «Blacks For Trump» signs are even more weird than the QAnon T-shirt)
The only way to defuse this whole moronic thing before it's too late: denounce it as a gigantic leftist/anarchist prank exploiting the right's gullibility for unknown, unspeakable purposes. An experiment in social engineering using fascists as guinea pigs.
Which probably it is.
