@daithaigilbert Based on the unforgivingly mocking tone and the word choices that pop up in every article about Reidt during the year between Rowan's date and his own fireball prediction, I really think the NYT had a single reporter making it their mission to follow everything Reidt did.
The New York Fucking Times ran a story in January 1926 where they dubbed Reidt's car the Chariot of Doom
It'd be great if the New York Times returned to the once-noble tradition of treating these things as ridiculous hoaxes worthy only of mockery and scorn

good fucking lord Ye is reading "jokes written by Owen Benjamin about Ben Shapiro" while Alex Jones anxiously laughs and Nick Fuentes genuinely laughs
The author went out and spoke with them face to face, and so these conspiracy theorists seem nice, and normal.

The article acknowledges that this is where the movement actually exists and gets all of it information, but what exactly are they learning? It's kept pretty vague.
(for instance, 'event 201' is the belief that the United Nations planned and executed the COVID 19 pandemic)
Watch the Water, a QAnon catchphrase from Feb 2018, is trending today, a week after a new "documentary" from QAnon celebrity Stew Peters started using the phrase to promote the baseless idea that COVID-19 comes from snake venom and is being spread through water treatment plants.
"Watch the Water" has been an extremely popular Q catchphrase to cite for years, because the Drop is totally context-free, meaning it could be about anything, so believers make it about anything.
