Supporters of then-President Donald Trump fly a U.S. flag with a symbol from the QAnon conspiracy theory as they gather outside the Capitol on Jan. 6, ahead of the insurrection.
The insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 was predictable if you were following message boards on shadowy corners of the internet. Yeah, I thought Jan. 6 was going to be really bad, Cullen Hoback, director of the documentary
Q: Into the Storm, told NPR in a recent interview. I got hardly any sleep the two nights before it. I was very anxious going into that day.
Hoback followed the growth of the QAnon movement for three years and unravels the twisted knots of the conspiracy theory in a six-part series on HBO. He focuses on the interpersonal drama between those behind the website 8chan (later 8kun), where an enigmatic Q posted false conspiracy theories that convinced millions there were nefarious Democratic actors involved in child-trafficking rings.

A look at HBO Max s Q: Into the Storm, QAnon, conspiracies and sovereign citizens
Back in late 2018, my best friend, Frank, sent me a text message with one line of letters: “WWG1WGA.” At initial glance, I thought it was simply some bastardization on the old “What would Jesus do?” acronym. On second pass, I thought it was potentially a reference to World War I. I was confused and not so busy that I had the opportunity to ignore the message.
I responded with something short, and Frank’s answer was equally as cryptic as his first text: “The storm is coming.”
