[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does this have to do with grifting?[/quote] Grifting in this respect involves audience capture. A lot of online commentators like to follow the money and parrot talking points that get them more views. [/quote] Thank you. So then is the assumption that none of these views are genuinely held? Would these essays and articles need to have no pecuniary benefit in order for them to be deemed more legitimate? How do you distinguish between audience capture for pecuniary benefit and audience capture because you genuinely hold these beliefs and feel they should be spread as far and wide as possible? I guess the meta question is how do you distinguish between a grifter and a genuine advocate in a way that is principled? I see people being labeled grifters on the right, left and in between. It's almost become a proxy for any public figure that is not part of MSM.[/quote]
