One year ago, I met Justin, a heavy QAnon believer who had lost friends, his job, and nearly his mind to the conspiracy theory movement. QAnon brought him to the steps of the U.S. Capitol on January 6th. Fortunately, that's not where his story ends. nbcnews.com/tech/internet/…
Over the last year, as Justin crawled out of a very dark place, we kept in touch, meeting for coffees and chatting on the phone. Stories of followers who escape the QAnon delusion are so rare. But people need to see a way out. nbcnews.com/tech/internet/…
@BrandyZadrozny I’m a fallible woman thankful for the 14yrs with the Mother God gave me, she told me about the rock and lead me to him. Throughout the 10% of what happened and the 90% of my choices, I’ve always known God loves all that he’s created and I’m his creation.
@BrandyZadrozny Brilliant read! Thank You. #TheresAlwaysHope
@BrandyZadrozny This story reminds me so much of something I heard on @CultExpert podcast — survivor stories are incredibly important in getting folks through this. Justin is brave in his vulnerability ❤️
@BrandyZadrozny @swin24 Excellent piece of journalism. It was fascinating to read. Thanks. 🤩👏 🏆 (I could relate; I have a close friend like this.)
@BrandyZadrozny The story about which wolf you feed... Surround yourself with goodness. Being an informed citizen does not require more than 20 minutes of news (reputable sources pls) per day. Curate your headlines. Turn off the ads. Learn to show love, broaden your capacity to build bridges.
@BrandyZadrozny @NBCNews I wish more people would pay attention to the first sentence of this article. “He was there for the Storm.” That crowd was full of people who were there to murder members of Congress and Trump knew it.
