    I had a coworker before that was a flat-earther (lizardmen believer and all that shit), and one day he came into work saying “y’all ever wonder if the moon makes its own light??” during a dinner rush and the only thing that kept me from punching his lights out was the fact that it was dinner rush, or I would have pulled him by the collar of his shirt and beat him to near death.

    I didn’t think people like that really existed until him, and even then I didn’t want to accept it.

      Oh yes. You’re such a hothead and tough guy that you beat morons to near death, but not during a…dinner rush. Kay.

      And then people discovered how to exploit big data, social engineering, and social networks to begin uniting them in personality cults.
