QAnon's Newest Target Is Huggies Diapers for Some Reason

[Jilly_in_VA]

QAnon has a new obsession: Huggies diapers.

Over the last week, the cult’s latest baseless conspiracy theory—that Huggies diapers feature secret symbols linked to pedophilia—went viral after a QAnon influencer on Twitter, recently reinstated on the platform by Elon Musk, tweeted out the wild claims.

The conspiracy theory racked up millions of views, going viral so quickly that the diaper company was forced to publicly denounce it. But despite this denial—or maybe because of it—the conspiracy continues to percolate on social media sites like Telegram, Reddit, and Truth Social.

The conspiracy theory began last week when a QAnon supporter who uses the screen name “Vincent Kennedy” and has over 265,000 followers, tweeted a picture of a Huggies diaper featuring the character of Simba from “The Lion King.” The picture had circled a number of symbols that feature on the diaper design, alongside the caption: “Once you truly awake you ain’t going back to sleep.”

While the reference will be lost to anyone except those deep down the QAnon rabbit hole, Kennedy was referencing the similarity between the symbols on the diaper and those featured in an FBI document from 2007, published by WikiLeaks that claims certain symbols, like triangles and circular swirls, were used by pedophiles to identify their sexual preferences.

When will this ridiculousness just STOP??????????????????????

[Sky Jewels]

1. I'm so sick of the abject stupidity of millions of Americans.

And apparently they think being "woke" is just fine and dandy in this case. ... Dipshits.

[JCMach1]

4. Not just Americans... This has spread worldwide...

My wife had to cut off a lifelong friend from Kenya who had immigrated to Sweden that had fallen down the rabbit hole.

[ananda]

20. That happened to me a couple of years ago.

A friend from college, now living in AZ, went down
the conspiracy theory rabbithole.

No facts I gave her would change her mind.

She literally went insane.

[TheBlackAdder]

24. They are so enlightened they have transcended conventional wisdom.

[fargone]

2. Just upset

I think they are just upset that they cannot find them in their size.

[underpants]

8. Ooh. Good one.

[TheBlackAdder]

23. I bet they wear them on their heads to stop all of the shit leaking out of their brains.

[LoisB]

3. These people are in need of serious intervention.

[MLAA]

5. And in need of a lawsuit from the maker of Huggies!

[LoisB]

10. Indeed.

[randr]

6. I'm begining to suspect that the "Q"

is a group of hash heads just making shit up and rolling on the floor laughing all day.

[Initech]

11. Oh god remember they accused Wayfair of human trafficking?

The CEO actually had to issue a public statement that said that they don't traffick humans in $10,000 filing cabinets. It was definitely then that I thought these idiots couldn't be for real.

7. Proctor & Gamble was a target of Satanic panic in the 80's

I remember hearing something about that. I think there were also conspiracies about the Starbucks logo too

https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/procter-gamble-satan-conspiracy-theory

If you were alive in 1982, you might remember a very special episode of Phil Donahue’s talk show. On that day, the President of Procter & Gamble went on the program and admitted that the company supported the Church of Satan and that its logo contained Satanic symbols. Oh, it happened in 1985? Actually, others remember the episode airing in 1989.

The truth is, this never occurred. P&G has never had any connection to the Church of Satan. The Church itself describes the claim as "completely false." But the truth has never stopped a good rumor from catching on.

When the first article on the P&G rumor, “Rumor Giving Company a Devil of a Time,” appeared in The Minneapolis Tribune in March 1980, Satanic panic was hitting its peak. The story detailed an accusation of Satanic imagery hidden in the company’s logo—a man in the moon looking out on 13 stars. But as a spokesperson from P&G, Tressie Rose, explains, this claim was without merit. “[It was] first developed by wharf hands to mark STAR candle crate boxes,” Rose writes in an email. “We then decided to formalize it, created the graphic, 13 stars for the 13 original American colonies. It was officially trademarked in 1882 but the incorporation of a face in the moon happened before that. It was the logo created in 1930 that created the rumor but not until the 1980s, 50 years after its creation.”

9. Unfortunately it won't stop

Remember the “satanic”craze in the 80s and 90s? Same BS, different day. Probably some of the same nuts. Humans are weird.

[moose65]

12. Does anyone remember this?

Back in the early 80s when I was in high school, one of those urban legends (what we used to call conspiracy theories) was that either Bubble Yum or Bubblicious bubble gum (I can't remember which one) was made with spider eggs, and if you chewed it, the spiders would hatch inside your body and eat you from the inside out!

Ridiculous, yes. But I swear, if Q said something like that today there would be millions of believers!

[mzmolly]

13. Hopefully Huggies will follow Dominion's lead

and sue the bastards for defamation.

[usonian]

14. They "flood the zone with shit" to shut off rational thought among the cult members

which might lead them to realize that their delusion is self-destructive.

[Midnight Writer]

16. Bingo!

[Initech]

15. It will never stop until we start ignoring the trolls.

Or we declare 4chan / 8chan / 16chan / whatever a terrorist group.

[Irish_Dem]

17. They seem to be obsessed with children, children's genitalia, sex.

Doesn't take a PhD to see what that might mean.

[inthewind21]

18. That

there is even something in existence that is a "QAnon Influencer on Twitter" says all we need to know about why things are the way they are.

[Wounded Bear]

19. There are plenty of reasons to hate disposable diapers...

the decorations printed on the outside of them isn't one of them.

[TheBlackAdder]

21. Must be those 5G microchips that track BMs and films parents getting peed on in the face.

[Chakaconcarne]

22. Great way to take a poke at your competitors....

Or... Send us money or we'll QAnon the shit out of you.

[Hortensis]

25. Qers are also saying Senator Fetterman's been replaced with a body double.

This was apparently sparked by information that he's preparing to be discharged from care for depression after his stroke.

Believe it or not, some QNuts are embarrassed that this latest will impair their credibility:

But others in the conspiracy and MAGA worlds are now pushing back, claiming that the “body double” conspiracies are damaging their reputation and hiding the real conspiracy— which is that Fetterman is, in fact, “braindead.”

“Those who don’t know how to critically think through situations and spout whatever conspiracy theory aligns with their confirmation bias are fueling the [mainstream media] attacks against all of us,” Jordan Sather, a QAnon promoter and grifter, posted on Telegram on Sunday.

[inthewind21]

26. And

still waiting for the return of JFK to appear!

[Mosby]

27. I don't think it's right to even call this stuff CTs.

Honest conspiracy theories have some meat to them, free fall speeds, Carcano rifle reloading times, misaligned shadows, but the qanon stuff has none of that, it's just creative writing.

[IronLionZion]

28. Supposedly 15% of Americans believe in Qanon

that is disturbing since many of them are likely projecting their own crimes.

[Takket]

29. there is a simple explanation for why these people see "symbols of pedophilia" everywhere they look

I'll just let you all figure it out

[Montauk6]

30. Perhaps, they're just being overly protective of their fuhrer based on recent rumors...?
