"quidam"

Sorry, catching up over here and feel the need to go back to comment.

I was not a Quidam follower and missed it other than the tail end. I was unknowingly parallel digging. Q asks everyone to participate personally yet directly says nothing encouraging followers to find provable information and evangelize the message. The Quidam culture was quite different. The most of the disciples felt that they were somehow special and like the impatient Q followers waited for the most part to be spoon fed information, the adherents treating it more like a secret club. When their superhero didnt end the series with an episode they felt befitting their image of an appropriate finale they had a breakdown, "he lied." They felt betrayed.

Had they been digging they would have seen that there was some small evidence of things going on behind the scenes. Whether Quidam actually knew something or played any part in what little did happen, I dont know.

This was somewhat odd for the time. Citizen investigators were more common here then as evidenced by legacy works such as people like Alamogirl left for us. Somewhere amongst the purges and forum splinterings many of those people left for good and havent returned leaving us the "barf"ing snarkfest the board devolved in to where digs are mostly ignored or attacked.

Those attacking Q on the basis of their Quidam experience are merely addmitting that they felt embarrassed and didnt bother looking for things themselves. Its emotional much like those who claim cigarretes cause cancer and that guns are responsible for shootings. Ignore them and let them wallow in their ignorance of the facts behind either of these events. Worst case Q scenario still has value in awakening a new crop of citizen investigators and for the well being of this country thats not a bad thing.
