“America’s Stonehenge,” a roadside tourist attraction in Georgia, became a magnet for conspiracy theorists, with theories associating it with a Satanic origin and message and as a recurring symbol in the QAnon conspiracy movement.
In early 2005, a conspiracy theorist writing under the pseudonym John Conner — the name of the resistance leader from"The Terminator" movies — decided he needed to warn the public about the evils of a roadside tourist attraction in northeastern Georgia.
Authorities have not identified a motive in the detonation, and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation has said simply that"unknown individuals" detonated the explosive. The agency said the monument was destroyed for"safety reasons." He is not the only public figure who has used their platform to rail against the supposed evils of the Guidestones, apparently vexed by their mysterious provenance and inflamed by strange inscriptions that appear to endorse eugenics and population control.
