Haha! If only. One by one the more intelligent Qers are waking up. However, the lower IQ Qers probably never will figure it out. It does require a smidgen of independent thought.

Since you know your way around philosophy, perhaps you’re familier with philosophy of science? Thomas Kuhn rocked that world with his epic, The Structure of Scientific Revolutions.

There is a fascinating study of perception recorded in Kuhn’s masterpiece. It involves test subjects and playing cards. The subjects were shown a card—the ten of spades, for example—and asked to identify it as quickly as they could.

At first all went well. Then the researchers started interposing anomalous cards in with the standard set. I.e.: the researcher would display, for example, a red ten of spades.

At first no one hesitated. They simply identified the anomaly through the standard lens. I.e.: the red ten would either be identified as a ten of hearts or a ten of spades.

As the card-displaying slowed down, some of the subjects experienced confusion. They would say things like, ‘That was a ten of spades, but something was wrong with it.’

As the cards slowed down further, the subjects began to catch on. They would begin to accurately identify the anomalies, such as, ‘That was a red ten of spades.’

But some subjects couldn’t make the paradigm shift, no matter how slowly the cards were displayed. A red ten of spades simply didn’t fit the template, and so they never successfully identified it.

The trust Sessions crew is the same. As Sessions’ betrayal becomes more and more clear, some are waking up. But some never will. They are locked into a perception template that glorifies Sessions and cannot see past it. They will trust Sessions forever.
