I know some folks don’t want to hear this, but it needs to be said. People in the QAnon conspiracy movement are, by and large, mentally ill. I say this not to mock or ridicule them. I say it because it’s almost incontestably true. And our unwillingness to say so is a danger to this society and its future.
