Same. Sometimes it takes removal from a situation to see things clearly.
Were they always this bad, or are they worse now?
I can tell you for a fact that it's gotten worse, and Q is to blame. It goes like this. Q hints at something too terrible to imagine, and then the TOS FreeQs [their designation, not mine] become obessesed with figuring it out.
To give just one example, Q hinted that there was more than murder involved in Scalia's death. Then one of Q's more highly esteemed 'interpreters' stated as fact that Scalia was murdered by a 14 yo boy he was abusing. Instantly some of the Freeqs believed it, while others feverishly posited that it MIGHT be true. The speculation went on and on; the FreeQs treated the malicious, baseless smear-gossip as if it were too delicious to leave alone.
Do the math. When you have a site owner not merely tolerating but encouraging that kind and degree of gutter filth, what is the inevitable result?
More and worse sewer garbage, guaranteed.
[To be fair, the Freeqs are equal opportunity smear merchants. They also accused Billy Graham of being a pedophile rapist. And again, those are just two examples. The number of innocent people they've smeared with unfounded accusations of pedophilia and child sacrifice, and as pedovores [a term they taught me] is incalculable.]
