On January 6, 2021, the world discovered a shirtless man horns on the head, posing proudly in the heart of the Capitol of the United States. As poisoned millions of Internet conspiracy theories, the “QAnon Shaman” (Jake Angeli, whose real name) believes in the prophecy that Donald Trump, supported by “Q”, a mysterious entity expressing itself in aphorisms Internet, fight against a pédosataniste network at the White House. And the fact that despite the election victory, in their flight, Joe Biden, it will remain for a second term.
The prophecy did not materialize, and January 20, inauguration day Biden, Mr. Trump has left the Oval Office, and Mr. Angeli, who has since denied the motion and former president, was sentenced to forty-one months in prison.
