QAnon and On: A Short and Shocking History of the Internet Conspiracy Cults by Van Badham

emotional informative reflective medium-paced

3.5

Whilst the look into qanon was super interesting especially learning of where this conspiratorial thinking started in the modern age, the book can be a bit of a slog to read at times and can be a reminder of the doom and gloom out there in the world.

It was really interesting reading the portion about gamergate as I was an avid tumblr user at the time but I was way too young to fully comprehend what was going on other than knowing that gamergate was overall a bad thing.

Badham did some thorough research and the end notes are very helpful for those who want further reading.

Overall an interesting book but a dense one to go through!
