I think the thing with Q is that most of the people who followed it weren't habitual conspiracy theorists.

It was more like a meme or a viral SM trend.

It was not a meme, but indeed a social media trend. We know now that Russian hackers, at Trump's request, hacked DNC emails, after which pro-Trump groups spread the PIzzagate theory, which is the foundation of QAnon theories:

This is why anyone claiming QAnon is NOT an anti-DNC campaign is promoting disinformation.
