*gestures*
Ignorant people who have lived incredibly sheltered lives getting most of their information from singular or highly curated news sources suddenly able to freely circulate conspiracies and coordinate en masse thanks to social media.
Flat Earth and Q aren't things that cropped up out of nothing. They're a natural end progression of decades of conservative policy and politics combined with the latent undercurrent of white supremacy that has always existed in America, and Trump has tapped into that wellspring with disastrous consequences.
This is not something any level of convincing individuals is going to fix, sadly. It will take something on the scale of Denazification.

Well, considering the people that were linked in that shitty article from Twitter are giant raving racist douchebags, I don't give a flying fuck about what they have to say.

Big message from SCOTUS that state election laws are going to be adhered to with regards to absentee ballot counting, etc.
Tellingly, the vote was almost unanimous, with three arch-conservatives dissenting on a side issue.
Can I also point out the innate level of farce in the whole Q thing; primarily that it's named because the source "Q" supposedly has Q level clearance in the government which is where they get their information from.
Except Q level clearance is primarily held by people working in the Department of Energy - i.e. folks working out in Nevada and New Mexico on the nuclear stockpile who have little if any direct contact with the White House. Lol.

Don't you know why? Your ignorance isn't something to be flaunted.
Faux News is touting this because their Dear Leader is essentially a terrorist with his biological weapon, infecting dozens of people a day, and they need to cover something else to help with the distracting campaign.
