In any scam, any con, any hustle, the big winners are the people who supply the scammers - not the scammers themselves. The kids selling dope on the corner are making less than minimum wage, while the respectable crime-bosses who own the labs clean up. Desperate "retail investors" who buy shitcoins from Superbowl ads get skinned, while the MBA bros who issue the coins make millions (in real dollars, not crypto).

@[email protected] Last week at work I got an email from a sales manager asking if we'd like to be hooked up with "green" printer toner. As in, an "eco" product whose entire existence depends on us cutting down trees. I couldn't believe it.
Their parent company's website had a little box labelled, "You're in good company" - Google, Tesla, McDonalds, and A P P L E.
A scam ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ a bullshit job: having to pretend you're doing your bit to avert catastrophe, yet knowing your product would be a net harm.
