while making fun of peoples appearances hurts as collateral anyone who looks vaguely like them I must wonder
how was this dude running a sex cult. He looks fine basically unremarkable either way but aren't there better sex cults ran by more attractive dudes who don't talk about cryptocurrency all the time
Literally every dude running a sec cult is like the last dude you'd think could pull it off. Look at the NXIVM dude or the guy that made The Family International/Children of God.
it is unfair how little effort men put into the running of sex cults versus what is expected of the women
Are there women-led sex cults? Not asking for a friend, just curious because I don't think I've ever heard of one.
I meant women in sex cults and not knowing much about cults I was working off the assumption that the dudes running sex cults were creepy and demanding
Has there ever been a major sex cult run by a lady? All the ones I can think of have been run by dudes
she was pretty famously working for her boyfriend who was running everything
her father was british intelligence
but i was mostly being facetious
They're somewhat common in very very invested fandom spaces but those generally don't grift nearly as much money before snowballing into profound personal tragedy
He can't help his face but no one forced that haircut on him
physical attractiveness has only a small effect on personal charisma. how you convey yourself and intimate yourself to others is almost all of it. people will literally not see your unattractive qualities if you convince them that they know you, like you, identify with you. this is also the beginning of abuse.
I can confirm this. Any woman who was initially physically attracted to me are almost always immediately repulsed by my God awful personality.
this is true but him being a crypto currency guy I extrapolated him being extremely boring and obnoxious
if you listen to him talk, especially before FTX crashed and burned, you'll notice that he's extremely smooth. and that's just pure audio. it's why the journalists are all horny for him. he's the conman in its purest form - he exudes confidence and control and it's actually hard to notice that it's affecting you unless you have a prior reason to distrust him. always go after these people by pointing out their verifiable lies.
reminder that Caleb Maupin was somehow running a sex cult in its early stages
Do I look like the kind of crypto banking tech prodigy with a plan?
This dude has a negative chraisma score. I don't understand how this dweeb finessed his way to the top. Not a single cell of charm, magnetism, allure in his body. The dude is utterly lifeless in his own fluff piece, like an alien trying to blend with humans by doing y'know human things like standing, having skin, and breaking oxygen through their looks at hand mouths. .
True! Then again I just know enough techno-dweebs, like Master's degrees and PH.D types to know they are all like kinda morons but equipped to deal with a certain subsection of a certain type of problem.
That’s what everyone thought this guys thing was! Turns out SBF was just very good at bullshitting about crypto.
Throwing this through a few filters and turning it into the next Russian sleep experiment creepypasta pic
Mt. Gox was how many years ago? Zero excuse for not knowing better by now.
"sounds like something you might want to regulate going forward" lmao
