Remember:
Threats are the cornerstone of nearly all of this year’s most effective scams
Nearly all effective scams starting with threats
Phishing scams, IRS scams, extortion scams
— All starting with a threat that you better do what they say immediately, or else you lose your account / get arrested
You become too distracted with trying to defend yourself to realize that you’re falling for their scam
Beware any over or implied threats you receive of any type
Threats = scam

Really it’s right out of the VCs playbook
Just like big tech, their favorite trick is to just play retarded
But they’re not retarded at all
Seen it in person myself when dealing with VCs many times

Honestly shocking how anything in memecoins that’s openly asian-themed over the past year has turned out so incredibly ruggy and scammy
Have avoided publicly saying this for months, despite the overwhelming percentage of cases
Too overwhelming to even sound believable
Just wild

Asian man’s research and theorizing on Asian lying:
“Europeans are generally more honest than Asians, despite the fact that honesty and intelligence correlate.”
“I ran a BMA a year ago to detect which variables were the most robustly associated with honesty between races. Individualism was the trait most linked with honesty, not intelligence or any other of the variables I tested.”
“About how this relates to conformity: on the surface, Asians are more conformist than Whites. More likely to wear masks, be quiet in class, and whatnot. But that's external conformity: Asians are more comfortable with inconsistencies between the inside and outside.”
“But Whites are more likely to conform internally, to adopt values, beliefs, or religions that involve sending more reliable and costly internal signals than simple external ones.”
“re the individualism thing, I don't think honesty causes individualism or vice versa, rather they're part of the same underlying phenotype, which is discomfort with inconsistency between the internal and external.”
—
Imo, pretty compelling.
Those of us who deeply care about truth have a terribly hard time even conceiving those who don’t at all.
You can see it all the time, e.g. when someone says “why would that person even lie?”
— They ask why someone would do something so painful, not realizing that for some people, lying brings zero pain at all.
Clearly, just as the 1st law of behavioral psychology predicts, it’s highly biological.
And clearly, this is an extremely political-correctness-sensitive question, but this also one of the most fascinating.
Are far more people than we realize, simply wired to lie, and experience lying entirely different than we do?
Yes, sure looks like it.
