@Tak But do we ridicule people who lose all their money to Crypto, because they believed the obvious lies?

@Tak The counter-arguments to your point tend to, in my experience, mostly tend toward "the victims should have known better" because the counter-arguers are assuming everyone else is as terminally online as they are and so should see all the dire warnings. And while different people are vulnerable to different specific cases, anybody can be manipulated.

@Tak Okay, I'm sorry, but there are so many people out of work on the basis of the "AI can give you a workerless economy" baloney. I'm gonna save my tears for them, not the business owners who invested in economic warfare and lost. Maybe if these companies invested in actual SREs instead of automated sycophants, they would have understood the value of infrastructure resilience and how to get there.

@Tak credulous buffoons should also be able to exist without being robbed senseless, this is ostensibly why we have laws So much this! This is also parallel to why we need N95 mandates in healthcare.
