Nothing to link to, but lately I've been considering some of the crazier QAnon nonsense in comparison to one of the more shameful events in the not-too-distant past, the McMartin pre-school nonsense.
Anyone remember that? For several years in that bygone era of Reaganesque good feelings (sarcasm) it was common knowledge that horrible things were done to the children (more sarcasm). Of course it was a horrible fabrication.
Nutty people will believe nutty things, and will very easily and happily ruin other peoples' lives.
A halfway decent press might not keep the Kool-Aid drinkers from drinking the Kool-Aid, but would be helpful in pointing out that, hey, maybe it's been laced with lunacy...or poison.
