Q: Into The Storm
I get fascinated in a weird way with cults/cultish behavior, along with belief in outlandiah (and harmful) conspiracy theories. Recently Qanon documentaries have replaced the Scientology documentaries I'd watch out of my morbid curiosity. QAnon: The Search for Q was pretty good, but I think Into the Storm might be a bit better in some regards. This one fixates on the Watkins' a *lot* more, and even suggests they are the main individuals behind Q. Fascinating stuff. The other one seems to lead more with the idea that it was a LARP/ARG that got out of control. This one mentions that too, but there is more of an idea that there is or was a deliberate voice behind it, rooted in the 4/8 chan split. Oh yeah "internet cultures" in themselves interest me as well. 8/10.
For those interested, this was on HBO
