Go ahead and share this with your QAnon conspiracy theorist friends and family.
QAnon theorist: I'm very concerned about pedophilia and I want to save kids!
Me: Ok, so the sexual abuse of children is indeed very bad. Because it's so bad, we wouldn't want to simply direct our efforts at random nonsense. We'd want to be careful to assure we're actually stopping it, which entails carefully and correctly identifying who the pedophiles are and what they're doing. So, where did you get your evidence?
QAnon theorist: From 4Chan and 8Chan--you know, the websites notorious for starting internet pranks such as the "recharge your iPhone using the microwave"--and my most ignorant friends. The Deep State may be dark and secretive, but my random neighbors unconnected to Washington or Hollywood somehow have uncovered their deep dark secrets.
Me: Hmmm. Not a promising start. And how are you proposing to stop all this Satanic pedophilia?
QAnon theorist: Sharing dank memes on Facebook.
Me: What about, say, donating some cash to Kidsafe or another charity which helps abused children? Or volunteering at such charities?
QAnon: Nope, I'm not planning to do any of that. Just the dank memes, thank you.
Me: And who do you think the pedophiles are?
QAnon: Pretty much every prominent Democrat in business, politics, and the media.
Me: So, basically, in order to justify demonizing and hating the people you disagree with about politics, you're baselessly accusing them all of being pedophiles. It sounds to me--based on the lack of genuine research or evidence, the use of laughably bad sources, the political one-sidedness of your accusations, and that fact that you haven't sacrificed any of your own income to help the children you say you care about--that you don't actually care about children. Instead, you simply want to justify hating Democrats.
QAnon: The Storm is coming!
Me: Cool. Give me a date and a description of the Storm; we can place a bet on whether it will happen.
QAnon: I don't know exactly when and what it will be, but you'll see.
Me: Oh, okay.
