This was so disappointing, yet I got sucked into it and watched the whole thing. It raises many questions but doesn't attempt to answer them, like: how did McAfee get into this situation? Why are people sucked into his orbit? How much of what he's saying does he believe? Was there a conspiracy against him? What was wrong with him? Why on earth did the videographer go back for a second round?

It left me feeling icky and then I had weird dreams after watching it.

Why are people sucked into his orbit?

Because America has a bad habit of mistaking self-absorbed and unjustifiably self-confident narcissistic sociopaths as free spirits to admire; see also, Trump, Charlie Sheen.
