It isn't QAnon. It is the plot of a book published in 1836: The Awful Disclosures of Maria Monk, or, The Hidden Secrets of a Nun’s Life in a Convent Exposed.
In the book, the "cabal" was the Catholic Church & claimed this happened in a Montreal convent.

The book stirred outrage. The Canadians investigated it (Monk was Canadian) & found it to be a hoax. Even Protestants who wanted to believe it dismissed Monk as a fraud.

What happened to Maria Monk?
She moved to Philadelphia. Americans embraced her book (it was one of the most popular books of the late 1830s, 1840s). She wrote a sequel.

Americans didn't think it was a hoax. They thought it was real. To Monk's lurid tale, they added all sorts of gruesome details including rumors of cannibalism and international sex trafficking.

But it wasn't just a ghastly sort of fan fiction. The story moved off the pages of a book to the streets.
Convents were burned, churches attacked, priests assaulted, and Catholic neighborhoods besieged by Protestant militias.

That's bad enough - but the anti-Protestant gangs coalesced into a political movement: the American Party. In the early 1850s, they sent 70 adherents to Congress.
Their platform? Only native-born Protestants should be able to vote.

I’m not entirely convinced that history repeats itself. But here we are: Joe Biden is a Catholic, one of the few Catholic candidates for president in American history. And what do we have?

QAnon is American conspiracy theory at its worst. But it isn’t terribly original. We’ve been here before.
