Business Insider: “Peloton has removed tags related to the QAnon conspiracy theory from their at-home fitness platform in accordance with policies prohibiting ‘hateful content,’ a spokesperson told Insider. QAnon is the baseless far-right conspiracy theory that claims President Donald Trump is secretly fighting a ‘deep state’ cabal of human traffickers.”
“Questions surrounding whether Peloton permitted QAnon rhetoric on its platform came about after Drew Goins, an assistant opinions section editor at the Washington Post, tweeted a picture on Tuesday of class tags — which allow riders in Peloton’s virtual classes to connect — for ‘Q’ and ‘WWGOnePelotonWGA.’ The conspiracy theory movement’s slogan is ‘Where we go one, we go all’ or ‘WWGOWGA’ for short. According to Goins’ photo, the ‘Q’ tag had 63 members, while the other had only one. Within an hour of his tweet, Goins said in a subsequent post, the tags were unusable, meaning they had zero members.”
