Anyone else watching this? Because it's absolutely bonkers.
First off, the series so far is way less political than you might think. It's not so much about QAnon followers and the Q phenomenon (though all of that is definitely covered) as it is about the batsh*t characters at the center of 8chan - a trio of owners and administrators, specifically - as the director examines their history building the site and ultimately hosting Q, in his attempt to try and unravel the mystery of Q's identity.
It's incredibly well done, so weird, at times disturbingly hilarious, and shows just how insane this whole thing is without, again, making it *too* overly political (though, it's obviously political by nature).
Of the six total episodes, four have released so far - two last Sunday and two this Sunday. I'm through episode three and cannot get enough (saving/savoring episode four for tomorrow night). Admittedly, the last 15-20 minutes or so of the first episode can get a little dense in terms of info, and can be a bit hard to follow, but episode two then takes a step back and expands on it all and explains the history/connections in detail, to the point where everything makes perfect sense (relatively speaking), you really get to know the players, etc.
If anything, there will 100% be a movie about these weirdo, sociopathic knuckleheads at the heart of the story. It's all just so compelling, not only how so many people fell (and continue to still fall) for this sh*t, but how it all came to be in the first place, the crazy dynamics and relationships behind the scenes, and who's potentially pulling the strings.
Definitely check it out if you get the chance...
