I would not call them idiots. They are cultists. I am a former cultist. I promoted Stevie's world at every turn. Her lyrics made it into my world history thesis presentations in school. I worshipped at the alter with posters all over my room. I spun around the house in shawls. I drank a bottles of tequilla and Jack Daniels and did copious amounts of blow. When she grabbed my hands during an edge walk, I almost fainted and lost my way home driving that night leaving the concert.
Then one day I left the cult.
