You're wrong.

was never popular

I didn't claim this. Far right conspiratards are not popular - generally within the US - but QAnon is popular within the far right consipirard audience.

nor did it boost numbers nor did it do anything.

Numerous studies show that Cambridge Analytica, Russian hackers, US evengelical groups, Trump, gravy seals, and many Republicans were sharing the Qtard consipracies among them (and I heard this from close Repuglican associates who claimed to know the same QAnon material from ex-CIA folks). So, yes, QAnon helped boost Repug voting numbers. Perhaps you were too young to notice in 2015-20.

It just hijacked already popular theories

Now you're admitting that their theories were popular, by association with early theories. But this too is problematic. For example, the pizza shop basement sex trafficking ring run by Hilary was QAnon from the outset, and not at all popular among Repugs until QAnon made the claims.

I AM THAT AUDIENCE and no it was never popular anywhere.

No, that's what you don't get and this is how you're being mislead. Most of the conspiracies within QAnon are real conspiracies that the far right DO often believe in BUT, and that's the crucial point for you to get here, not the QAnon version of it. QAnon is a psyop. It works as a vaccine to discredit far right conspiracies such as pizzagate and many more.

You are believing the media version of reality instead of asking ME or others like me who the media is describing lol. I know all those conspiracies and followed them before QAnon was propped up in the media and we laughed at it because we knew what it was from the start.

You cannot understand QAnon as an independent group of theories. It's irrefrangibly, ineluctably, inexpugnably within the misinformation engine of the political 'right' and 'alt-right. Anyone referencing their conspiracy theories are automatically referencing their system of theories that include QAnon in some form or another. That's the whole point of the misinformation campaign: to gain followers who eventually forget the significance of - or agree with - the lies that indoctrinated them as believers of right wing candidates.
