    A little passive-aggressive entertainment for this evening...

    As cult members, I think we need to know exactly where we stand; to be sure of what our duties are, as parishioners in the Church of Stef. So, I thought it might be fun to define ranks for those of us enlisted in the Grand Molyneux Army. Wink

    Would it be based on the number of posts? Or, on the level of passion which is deployed, in our defense of the Great Leader?  Or, would it be based on a "proof" of intellectual loyalty? This will all certainly have to be worked out, but in the meantime, here are the categories I could come up with:

    Top level:     Minion

    The Minion is angling for his chance, come the day that the Great Leader gets capped, and so he has developed the capability of disagreeing with the Great Leader, but in such a way that it sounds like there is actually agreement. He delegates his marching orders to his own favorite drones, and on occasion, acts as a stand-in for the Great Leader.

    Level 2:        Drone

    Takes all his marching orders from either the Great Leader, or from a Minion, and never, ever disagrees with the Great Leader (unless he has secretly allied with a Minion). He has developed a solid confidence in the doctrine of the Great Leader, and preaches it without fail, to everyone he knows.

    Level 3:        Sycophant

    Still building his confidence in the doctrine, the sycophant parrots the the Great Leader often, but isn't quite sure of himself yet. The sycophant will often pick fights with the Drone and the Groupie, testing his resolve in the doctrine, as he progresses toward Drone himself. Sycophants fear minions, and will avoid them at all cost, unless they are trying to win the grace of a minion, for the sake of advancement.

    Level 4:        Groupie

    Groupies are budding sycophants, often over-enthusiastically declaring their love for the leader, and mischaracterizing the Great Leader's doctrines in broad simplistic terms, in an attempt to get noticed by the Great Leader, or his favorite Minions. Sycophants act as mentors to Groupies, schooling them in the basics of the doctrine, and punishing them, for their mis-steps.

    Level 5:        Initiate 

    These are the lowest of the low. Groupies and Sycophants have the job of luring initiates into the cult just enough to make them think they are here of their own free will. Once initiates are convinced they WANT to be here all the time, they advance to Groupie, where fellow Groupies encourage their development toward Sycophant.
     

    This is all very complicated stuff, of course. Only a well schooled Drone, or Minion, should really have a full understanding of the various layers of psychological and philosophical conditioning that are necessary for the advancement and growth of the Molyneux Nation. For, if this information spread to the broader society, it would surely be a deadly toxin, capable of melting your eyeballs and rending your flesh. Wink
