Comment on What ever happened to QAnon?

QAnon appeared to me to be a LARP that wanted to convince people that pedos are the Democrats running local pizza shops, rather than the anti-trans people demanding to inspect your child’s genitals to play sports.

It’s my theory that QAnon was being controlled by Republican election strategists. Steve Bannon has bragged about this.
It was no coincidence that Pizzagate started immediately after the news broke that Trump used to go into teenage dressing rooms.

I don’t doubt the a MAGA crowd leant into the Q conspiracy and were happy to co-opt it’s adherents into it’s electoral base. However is there any evidence that links its genesis to the like of Banon? Most of what I heard (from across the pond, indirectly) was more traditional wedge issues like anti-DEI and anti-trans rhetoric.
