Leaving out the pretty extreme lack of morality going on here, one reason that may resonate in this community of rich programmers and capitalists is that we shouldn't do it because fraud is inefficient. It is a huge drain on your economy. It is not a good use of capital or time. If for instance it is all a scam and everything collapses to nothing, that's ten years of completely wasted human effort. If you built it and profited from it, you are to blame.

I don't have any problem cashing in my 6 figures paycheck when pezzonavantes (from any side since forever) cash out 9 to 10 figures own scams.

Honesty is for the poor.

> Honesty is for the poor.

The morality and ethics crisis in our country in a nutshell.

We're building bigger and better systems to scam and exploit each other, meanwhile China keeps on getting better at building real stuff.

Don't give me that China bullshit, the poors have been explored tough morality and honesty forever by the various churches, nobility, ruling classes/party, INCLUDING in China.

typo: explored -> exploited

Keep working hard and maybe one day you’ll be one of those upper echelon sociopaths.

[jlcoff]

Your point being ?

I've already been called Nazi, mysogynist, racist, baby killer, pure evil here (on other now-banned accounts). Do you think "sociopath" is gonna affect me the least ?

For anything it actually strengthen my no-fuck-given stance.

That’s the spirit

[jlcoff]

That your remarks are counter-productive ? Congrats, you've leveled up at being useless !

[fizzledbits]

You should aspire to be merely useless since by your own admission, you're even less than that. Every one of your posts is some dumbass movie villain cliché - "who cares that I'm a scammer, everything's a scam, maann."
