OK. I can't tell if you're dissembling or actually don't grok my point. When you ask
"neither of us would think that was a good argument... right?", you're not
pulling in the context I set regarding slippery slope arguments. When *is* a slippery
slope argument a good argument? You just made
The MLM is only a problem if a) they make you put in a big investment of
capital or b) you actually think you will get rich off of it. If you don't
have to outlay cash, and you think you'll get some tupperware (or whatever)
and make a few $100 out of it, and then you actually get some tupperware
Ha! There's no such thing as coincidence, only pareidolia:

Interesting take. It reminds me of Stockholm Syndrome and abusive
relationships. I've made disruptive runs at ad hominem, hume's guillotine,

Ha! No, I won't be buying any NFTs. I do still hold out some hope for
distributed computation, however naïve. My Ada is staked. And I'm sporadically
re-piqued by FileCoin and AR. But the anti-crypto rants are fantastic. Perfect
examples of healthy criticism. This one was a lot of fun:

The longer-form, less sarcastic thoughts on web3 are also good reading,
