#Coronavirus lockdowns have united the far-right and left in Germany. Data from public QAnon Facebook groups in Germany also suggests that there's been a surge in activity since the government began enforcing quarantine measures.

Most of these posts came from just two Groups with less than 35,000 combined members. This is a sample though and only contains data from public Facebook Groups. (Note that a few Groups are not exclusively German, but German users post in them).

So what have these Groups been sharing? Around 57% of content comes from Facebook and YouTube.

This includes documents about the Bilderberg meetings, studies about the efficacy of masks, and this print-at-home "medical certificate" so you don't have to wear a mask in public.

Cross-posting is apparent with YouTube videos, and the German QAnon community leverages it well, with videos traveling outside of their groups. These videos are, by now, pretty familiar: elites using COVID-19 as control, Bill Gates as evil mastermind, vaccine fear-mongering.

This network graph shows which QAnon groups shared similar Facebook content (reposts) over the last year. It suggests a bit of interaction between German-speaking countries and other international QAnon clusters.
