The work presented here is part of an ongoing BA thesis project investigating the conspiracy theory QAnon. This project is intended to demonstrate some of the challenges, opportunities, and strategies available to ethnographers as they investigate online communities and online media. To comply with IRB protocol, as well as to avoid making preliminary claims about ongoing and temperamental research, I will focus primarily on the methods at work, rather than conclusions one can make about QAnon. The group is acting primarily as a stand-in for any Internet-based community.
