The LaRouchies probably hate him too...and they have a vested interest in subverting the dominant paradigm, too. Along with every other competing political dogma along the spectrum, ever so slightly different from the other.

RU Sirius...if you read him, Robert Anton Wilson, Principa Discordia, the book of the Sub-Genius, Temporary Autonomous Zone...you'll come to understand several things...one is that it amuses some small subset of the population to invent wacky religions with themselves as transparently silly overlord...part of the joke, of course, being that they aren't very successful & never get any real traction...

They know what they're doing...I really think. The goal is not to be L Ron Hubbard, it's to mock him. Which isn't to say they wouldn't take the money & run if they became the next pet rock.

I can speak at length about Star Wars, Micronauts and Dungeons & Dragons as well.
