We live in a capitalist world, scamming is objectively how we base how successful and smart someone is.

Celebrating selfishness and deception is just that, no matter how warped the perception of a theoretical majority of people might be. Perpetuating such nonsense will only cause more harm in the future. It's not a sign of good behaviour or even mental health to be well adapted to a broken system.

So yeah, not "smart". Disgusting.

I can agree with you but also recognize that's contrary to the entirety of modern human society except ~7 countries representing just under 1/4th the GL bal population. But even then not really. I agree with the idea, but that's not going to be the world we live in without truly ridiculous amounts of violence (which I am not advocating)
