A Sydney psychiatrist who posted bizarre alt-right conspiracy theories he claimed were the directives of US President Donald Trump to his practices official website has been struck off the medical register.
The Dee Why doctor Russell Everard McGregor claimed Trump had taped evidence of a global Satanist paedophile network, that 9/11 was faked, and that the ABC was part of an international deep state network covering up the crimes of the elite.
Many of the 300-plus posts from 2018 onwards related to the debunked QAnon conspiracy that suggests Trump is leading a crusade against deep state forces who protect satanic paedophile rings.
The tribunal agreed, finding McGregor was exposing his vulnerable patients (Many of whom had schizophrenia or paranoid beliefs) to harm with the posts and was mentally unfit to continuing treating people. His perception is not the reality, NCAT said.

Be sure to read the whole article... especially about the part when he was called to account for what he was doing and started talking about Trump's statements are actually secret orders to the QAnon army.
Just wow.

IMO part of what makes them dangerous, is they appear normal. There was a photo of a bunch of them floating around a few weeks ago, you could have switched out their Q signs, for Resistance signs and they would look just like us.
