Article literally states that 1 out of 5 posts are from overseas.

Hardly "fueling"

Thanks, though I think it's significant.

It's nearly 20% of the QAnon Facebook activity, not counting all of the other forms of engagement elsewhere. That's 33,364 posts during almost 423 days, which is approximately 79 posts per day. That's massive, especially when you consider how much of those posts were shared, and the level of 'engagement' in Facebook advertising terms. They reached 10s of millions of users each day in the US, and much more than that worldwide, of their 2.8 billion monthly active users.
