we HAVE TO ask ourselves what that says about those who bought this shit from the get-go, and willingly (even eagerly) swallowed it whole without even chewing it up first.

What does this say about them, then? Seems to me there’s been enough time by now, to come to at least some partially informed and realistic conclusions.
