A repost for you bozo....
Schuh is a clinical case. He defends Clinton passionately, because in the end, Clinton and he very much act alike, intellectually at least.
Their MO is similar : discarding or distorting facts that are incriminating, acting as victim, creating controversies to deflect attention, and refusing to take responsibility.
This MO is only effective with/ tolerated by/ 4 categories of people : the naive, the uninformed, the corrupt, and the cynic.
Overtime however, as facts pile up and the same tricks are used over and over, even the naive and the uninformed eventually notice that people like Schuh sound and act more and more like clowns.
Soon, these people feel duped, and realize that their trust and instinct for forgiveness has been abused. This time of incertitude is also when some of the cynic and the corrupt start looking for cover.
I anticipate that just like in the case of stocks that have been hyped by unscrupulous analysts, denial will somehow turn into general scorn, and then disgust. |
