My noting as much should not be taken as an opinion on whether or not this should be actionable.
I would also suggest changing the tag on your thread title to [Discussion] to explicitly allow others to post in this thread.

I mean, we don't get tons of hardcore ISIS-y stuff either, but it's still banned? I don't think it has to reach crisis level on the forum for the mods to say "hmmm, this is bad, let's make sure it doesn't get all over our nice forums."

I get why ISIS material is banned because that's a whole different kettle of fish, as it's literal promotion of terrorism and the like.

Yes the FBI has recognised that the extreme fringes of QAnon are terrorist in nature, but largely the same could be said of any extreme fringe of a movement or group.

Except that QAnon is all extreme fringe. You can also say that only the extreme fringe of ISIS is promoting terrorism, if you so desire.

Not at all actually, ISIS could be determined to broadly advocate terrorism. The same can't be said of QAnon, and the FBI doesn't assert that QAnon is entirely terrorist in nature, instead identifying "conspiracy theory-driven domestic extremists", different from people who may just ascribe to QAnon beliefs.

Yes I'm aware, I was just using it as an example as that was the example that was given by the OP. I'm aware that if QAnon-related content was deemed unwelcome that it'd encompass both sides of the site.

You have perhaps misunderstood my point.
My point isn't that any ruling on this would encompass all parts of the site, but rather that whether it's a 'problem' in the forums may weigh less with us than whether it's a problem in the other parts of the site which have more users.
