But that's the weird thing about calling QAnon a conspiracy theory: we label something as a "conspiracy theory" when it's presumed to be based on information which is...hmm, untrue? Hard to pin it down.
Jim Jones was not a conspiracy theory. It was a real belief system. By admitting the existence of the beliefs, we don't automatically recognize correctness. So why should QAnon be flat out labeled as a conspiracy theory when its existence as real as Jim Jones?
