I feel like we should run honeypots like this, and anyone who falls for it goes right to, like, therapy and "how not to be scammed" training.
Paid for with the money they sent.
That... Is honestly not a bad idea!
That entire article (and website) is trash, that site shouldn't be used as a source
Its literally a complete phrase title, then a single phrase summary, then an article consisting literally of only two single phrase paragraphs, and on to the next article below! Which... Is the same crap
You know, some scams are so obvious that if you fall for it really thats your fault. So really whoever actually falls for a scam like this, its your fault.
Most functioning societies have laws to protect the most vulnerable among them, and most consider being an uneducated, credulous rube to be a vulnerability. Unfortunately, many modern societies are having trouble functioning these days, leading to the predatory financial hellscape we find ourselves in.
Such a society would ban onlyfans, since it exists solely to exploit vulnerable lonely people.
If you take it a step further, such a society would also have very little content on OnlyFans in the first place, since many of those creators surely do so for lack of other options to make a living, which is caused by many of the same societal ills.
That said, marketing sex appeal is not, in itself, one of those ills. For example, a prostitute is not necessarily exploitative, but a pimp almost certainly is, especially in a black market.
Within your statement lies a claim that requires proof, without which the rest of it carries no weight whatsoever.
It's a Moorean fact.
Some of those in power wouldn't be so were it not for the uneducated credulous rubes. They believe lies so readily and lack the ability to think critically. It can be difficult getting these people the help they need when they, and their current condition, are vital to the overlords.
Well said. They are a leading cause of the circumstances that lead to their plight. It is a vicious cycle that does not correct on its own, requiring a major external event to shake up the current status quo. I wonder what that event will be this time.
Came here to say the exact same thing
