How QAnon and Pizzagate Conspiracy Theorists Got a ‘Trolls’ Doll Pulled From Stores

The story of the Trolls 2 doll being removed from shelves was covered by mainstream publications across the country, from the Associated Press to Huffington Post. What few of these stories noted was that the campaign to remove the doll actually took root among conspiracy theorists, including QAnon and Pizzagate believers, who have co-opted the anti-trafficking cause to promote the theory that a cabal of pedophiles is running a massive child sex trafficking ring.

 

The video was initially uploaded by Jamie Cornaby, a mother from Utah, earlier this week. But it didn’t go viral until it was reposted by @redpillbabe, an Instagram influencer with 116,000 followers who has the QAnon phrase #WW1WGA (“where we go one, we go all”) in her bio. “In what morphed dimension of the simulation IS THIS OK?,” she wrote in the caption accompanied by the hashtags #pizzagateisreal, #billclintonisapedo, #whatisQ, and #wayfairgate. The video has received 1,493,466 views on her account alone.

 

The Change.org petition created by McManis includes the hashtag #SaveTheChildren, which has as of late been heavily used by conspiracy theorists of all stripes, but especially QAnon and Pizzagate proponents. “#SaveTheChildren is basically QAnon reskinned for Instagram activism,” says Travis View, cohost of the QAnon Anonymous podcast, who recently attended a #SaveTheChildren march in Hollywood and saw countless signs referencing QAnon and Pizzagate. “It’s more activism-focused and downplays the whole ‘secret codes’ element of those conspiracy theories in favor of a more palatable but vague protest against child abuse and human trafficking.”

This is nuts. I mean, the positioning of the button was dumb, but there have been similarly stupid things before. Some examples here: https://www.boredpanda.com/funny-toy-design-fails/

The question is though, how many troll dolls can I fit into my Ikea cabinets?

I see what you did there....

Seriously though, have these people not discovered LOL Dolls? They have actual anatomy going on.

If you are in the grip of a fantasy that there is a shadowy cabal of Satan worshipers running a massive child sex ring by shipping kids in Wayfair cabinets when they aren't working to unseat Trump, you might have a lot on your mind right now, to be honest. They might have missed the LOL Dolls that way.

I was under the impression that the doll made sounds of arousal when the “secret” button was pushed, perhaps my sick twisted mind added that detail

I saw a video. The button is where the lady parts are, and it makes excited and giggling noises when pressed. Uh. Nooo

 

I have no idea what pizza gate is and not

 sure what QAnon is.

 

Remember when Cory Feldman said Hollywood was infested with pedophiles and everyone thought him crazy. Not so crazy anymore

I heard this on Armstrong and Getty last week.  The moans from the doll did seem a bit disturbing.  Not sure how the OP mentioned groups had anything to do with this.  Were these groups responsible for the dolls?  Needless to say, just make sure the parents that buy these dolls know what is there, they can make the decision and I imagine a lot of folks would not spend their money on them.

I am the pilot light that keeps this collection of misfits,  toxic testorone cowboys. California hippie girls, night stalkers with a bad sense of humor and domesticated mods interesting.
