At its
heart, QAnon is a wide-ranging, unfounded conspiracy theory that says that
Donald Trump is waging a secret war against elite Satan-worshipping paedophiles
in government, business and the media.
QAnon
believers have speculated that this fight will lead to a day of reckoning where
prominent people such as Hillary Clinton will be arrested and executed.
It may
sound outlandish, but it hasn't stopped President Trump himself retweeting
tweets from accounts supporting the theories - and those in his circle have
posted imagery linked to the group. Since the coronavirus pandemic took hold in
the US in March there's been a surge in online QAnon groups.
As the US
gears up for its presidential election in November, BBC Population
Correspondent Stephanie Hegarty and producer Emma Ailes have been taking a
deeper look into Q-Anon.
