Some of them are just tall tales -- crude fiction writing. Others are
carefully orchestrated polemics of the conspiratorial sort. An
increasing number are just lies with numbers and statistics, larded so
thick that few people would be able to untangle them.

When I see someone who'se pasting them here, the one thing I know for
sure is that the person doing the pasting is suffering from some
emotional weakness and grasping for support, usually not very smart,
with problems organizing information and communicating it on their
own, and unconcerned about anyone else. Beyond that, I don't think too
much about it anymore.

Not to suggest that our malcontents approach their caliber.


g Right. Ours are more of the garden variety, the kind that used to
join the John Birch Society and who were members of the Conservative
Book Club.

Now they have a 24/7 tap into the big barrel of halucinatory
conspiracy theories, and they drink deep.
