  • Systemic racism refers to the systems and structures that create and perpetuate racial inequality in society, affecting various aspects of life, including wealth, employment, housing, healthcare, education, and the criminal justice system. It’s not just about individual prejudice, but rather about the deeply embedded discriminatory practices, policies, and beliefs within institutions.





  • One of my favorite scam stories from Dark Net Diaries is in one of the preambles and talks about an investment “advisor”.

    You get a call from them about a stock tip about a stock going up, and they are like, you dont have to beleive me, just watch it. It goes up.

    They call back the next week with a new stock tip talking about how they were right and made so much money. Again, they dont ask for an investment, just that you watch the stock. It goes up again.

    They call back the next week with the ask.

    Turns out, they were calling 1000 people, 500 going up, 500 going down. They called everyone that they had a right prediction for the second week. Same process 250 up, 250 down. They again call everyone that they had it right for.

    Such a cool scam.
