I have been so tempted over the years to set up scams for crazy people. Homeopathy, SovCits, crystal healing, Trump fans. My greed is slightly less powerful than the self-loathing I’d endure having to have more contact and immersion in these worlds - to do a good scam, you have to know the domain, talk the talk, and I just can’t.
But I don’t hate the people scamming these suckers. It isn’t like not scamming them is going to help them be less stupid.
