continued Thatfucker discussion

Since we've been kicked off FFA for the week, please feel free to continue the anon discussion here. Apologies if this is a big flop - I've never made a DW community before!

The rules are vaguely the same as they are over on FFA. Please refrain from being too much of an asshole, making personal attacks, posting identifying information or engaging in transfail.

ETA: If there's information you'd like to see archived (journal/blog posts related to Andy, etc.), please dump it here and link to it from the main post for discussing.

In fact, they tell believers the opposite: that they shouldn't believe and should be skeptical, but if it works, hey, might as well use this "technology" and go with it. So they become invested in bettering themselves and once they are in too deep belief starts seeping in and being required.

I think Andy is similar: at first, it is all, of course it is just fiction, just enjoy and have fun with my work, ignore the lies, not relevant to the enjoyment of the thing. Then he drops hints of, but doesn't it "feel" real? it can't all be fake, I'm not that clever, etc. once you are invested, you stop noticing the little things, then the big things.
