@dalias @kdekooter Makes it no less a lie. In fact, it’s what makes it a honeypot.

If I say I do X (while I exist due to X’) and I attract (and have money to pay) people who also care about X, I am effectively taking those people out of the equation. I can ensure they cannot actually harm X’.

Moreover, I can suck all the oxygen out of the room for people actually working on X. And can even make them unwelcome on platforms that I sponsor with money from X’.

PS. None of this is theoretical. It’s lived experience.
