Maybe this was all WL's own psychological projection, projecting his own feelings or traits onto others. At any rate, what he spoke against is suspiciously similar to who he really was. Perhaps that is why members failed to see who Lee really was, and what the LC really was. He spoke so strongly against things that members would have never guessed that he, or the LC was exactly what was being spoken against.
