Also, like some of the participants in chat, I am pretty curious about the significance of the “demons” and “objects” from Zoe’s post. Is it just social contagion? The elevated language makes it seem like they developed some unique theories that a lot of intelligent people found persuasive (and harmful — at least in the social context of what sounds like a toxic workplace). Has any light been shed on this somewhere?
