The one thing that actually is fascinating about the Q threads is their example of an exercise in social influence/engineering; but it’s distressing when you realize that it’s at the expense of some decent people. There have been times when there was so much slavish Q worship and effusive kissing-up over there that I had to stop reading. It’s sad to see otherwise smart people falling for such misdirection and manipulation and beginning to act like cult victims.

But, at least they seem to be having fun with it. They seem to especially enjoy it when one of the Resistance shows up and they can get off a self congratulatory bon mot or two; hurl a little invective; or give an oily, preacher-like speech on how pitiable the fallen Others are for refusing the altar call.

And that's about where I have to leave it.

With so much going on in the real world, I find it hard to fix my attention on the Q thing for very long. I'll register my opinion of this silliness now and again, but it gets tiresome going round and round with the true believers.
