But that's where we are, a politial party has been taken over by Q Anon conspiracies. There are full fledged Q-Anon folk in Congress, and the GOP party leaders use Q-Anon conspiracy theories regualrly to try to gin up hate against their opponents.

“Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.”
― Voltaire

That's where we are, the atrocities phase. It's why you're catching these people outside of the Obama's house, why they tried to overthrow the government, why they're increasingly openly talking about terrorism including strapping bombs to themselves. When you're leading people to believe your political opponents are murding and eating children, violence against those opponents is certain.
