"The government is putting Bill Gates' microchips into people with those vaccines!"
These people ARE serious about secret microchip implants to track them, and they also think the vaccine somehow changes their DNA.
Do you know, where that all comes from?
"The X-Files" - SERIOUSLY!
Before FOX ever got bought by an Australian media mogul to get into the "news" business, they were strictly entertainment. Then Rupert Murdoch started buying them out. Their stations had no news, but in the early nineties they started to experiment with misinformation and how much B.S. they could get away with. First with "The X-Files" (aired 1993 to 2018), and then the infamous "Alien Autopsy" (1995).
People took both at face value as completely true, hook, line, and sinker! Even after Jonathan Frakes (Star Trek Next Generation's Cmdr. Riker), who had narrated "Alien Autopsy", stated officially it was a fun hoax, people said "yeah right, it was REAL!"
Most of the QAnon madness is straight from the X-Files, and people believed back then it was real, and now they believe it is true as retold by QAnon.
It was a chore slugging through all 217 episodes in month long binge this spring (back in the 90s I had lost interest, as they were trying to feed me too much nonsense, and I am a total SciFi freak!), but it was eye opening to watch all of the X-Files series episodes ad-free on Hulu. The movies are streaming somewhere else. You can get it done with a free trial in a month. Just have plenty of beer/wine/schnaps and chips/dip/hot-dogs/pop-corn/pizza or whatever next to you, and a stash of headache pills, because too much of that stuff is so bonkers, it is beyond suspension of disbelief.
