> Nobody wants to go up against a very charismatic phony It's not the charisma that's a problem, it's the zealotry, usually driven by uninformed press looking for the right "type" of story. > They build up cult followings Which came first? The cult or the charlatan? > Do you want to expose this person? Which, in my estimation, is why people usually fail at the task. Your goal isn't to denigrate the other person for being a liar, your goal is to ensure that people can see the truth regardless of their lies. And the very last thing you want to do is engage of lies of your own to pursue the former goal.
