      That person is the same who sells it, nobody is so stupid to waste that money in that stupid picture, and if they actually did it thinking there's an even stupider person out there to who sell that garbage, that's impossible, nobody is that stupid.

          Honestly, respect the hustle. Separating rubes from their money is less morally bankrupt than being a capitalist at least

            yeah sure, but i would respect the hustle a lot more if they werent also boiling the oceans

            and everyone is vulnerable to being conned on something, and the people who really get hurt by all of this (as always) are going to be a bunch of poor suckers who are so desperate for a break that theyll fall for smoothly-sold bullshit, and who absolutely could not afford to spend eight thousand dollars on a jpeg

              I don't have 8 thousand dollars, and if I did I would not spend it on a doodle

                we are all vulnerable to cons of some sort, though in our cases its obviously more likely to be a political than a financial con-artist that gets us

                nobody is immune to being taken advantage of

                    *gestures broadly at just about every cult ever*

                    plenty of cons arent about money

          I explored that site and people spent half a million dollars on 'Crypto Punks?!' Can someone please pour a can of Buzz Cola on this simulation and end it?
