McCarthy just said he doesn't even know what QAnon is.
So the House Minority Leader doesn't care to learn about a set of beliefs that helped inspire an insurrection at the Capitol.

McCarthy not calling this stuff out, sends the message to QAnon followers that they should continue to believe in the conspiracy, a former QAnon believer told me.

(34,852 posts)Kinda like when you look at a graduate level physics course and say, "I don't know what that is"...Same thing...
Therefore, he can get away with saying he doesn't know WHAT it is.....
Do you really know WHAT it is? It's like jello...
A bunch of conspiracy theories that do not make sense..

(6,474 posts)My 97-year-old mother knows what QAnon is, at least in general terms. I try not to give her the goriest details.
So, the minority leader is less informed than a 97-year-old who doesn't use the internet and only reads her local newspaper? I don't think so!

(34,852 posts)Nobody really knows what QAnon is except for a very small minority of adherents...
Who is Q? Who is the leader? What do they believe in?
It's like jello....
It's not a real organization....It's strange beliefs.....
QAnon doesn't make sense to most people...It probably doesn't make sense to McCarthy....
Jewish Space Lasers, cannibal cults?? WTF is that??...(Sounds like a bizarre movie) I don't know WHAT that is. He doesn't know WHAT that is. That doesn't mean he has not heard about. That doesn't mean he doesn't know that it's something bad...But he's "off the hook" because like the rest of the world, he doesn't understand it...
Do you know what this is? There are various degrees of WHAT
