I was born and lived in the Era of the Scam. Scams big and small as far as the eye could see.

Elon Musk’s SpaceX bought tens of millions worth of Cybertrucks Tesla can’t sell
As demand for the Cybertruck can’t reach more than about 10% of Tesla’s planned production capacity, Elon Musk used his privately owned company to try to boost demand.

Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.
She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”
