Sanctioned pyramid schemes
@lunch @wattdefalk @joshmillard @grahamsleight I mean only the 1% at the top of it are reaping the rewards....
@kc @wattdefalk @joshmillard @grahamsleight that's just capitalism though
@lunch @kc @wattdefalk @grahamsleight folks we gotta stay focused, this is an awful pun thread not a confrontation of the extractive horrors of capitalism thread

Oh. Like, recapitulating means sewing back on the head of someone decapitated?
