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

sad slow-paced

2.5

probably informative if you didn't know anything about qanon and its predecessors, but won't give you a deeper look if you're already aware. also, as someone on the left-wing side of politics, giving governments control of information and discourse is an awful idea and journalists shouldn't encourage it without giving serious coverage of all the incredible harms it could do.   

still, i found a few interesting things i didn't know (the full extent of scomo's involvement is crazy), it covers the australian angle in a way i've seen few books do and, if nothing else, the book is so well-sourced i found a bunch of other things to read on the topic.
