I spend a fair amount of time in conservative Christian spaces online.
One of the biggest developments in recent years, especially in the Southern Baptist Conference, is a move towards acknowledging widespread sexual abuse & coverups.
So here's how SOME men are takin' it:

To be clear, I have no indication that this particular dude is a QAnon fan. He's just an obnoxious little piss-streak of a man.
But also, note his reflexive defense of patriarchy -- his need to go on the *attack* and say that advocates for sexual-abuse survivors are Satanic.

This is 100% a QAnon behavior -- and not JUST because he's going "anyone who I am ideologically opposed to must be a Satanic monster."
Rather, I think it's the way he *deploys* the accusation, defending patriarchy against a threat from a population that "should" be subordinate.

Does he care about actual sexual abuse? Of course not, and neither do most QAnon adherents.
They care about *what they can use as a cudgel.* Because QAnon & this brand of reactionary bullshit, share a wellspring:
a need to dominate, to scour dissent from the face of the Earth.
