2. They think it will achieve for them some associative benefit with another party.

What's saddest about this pattern of behavior is that the groups that huddle together in support of the lies spoken about another person or persons are damning themselves to lives of self-loathing and constant paranoia -- the image of rats squirming together in a barrel suits the idea.

I pray for them.
