    You call the man a marketing genius while simultaneously believing all marketing is just a grift. Why would you use such an honorable term to refer to him instead of just calling him a genius grifter, then?

    My man, just don’t use the word marketing for things that are not marketing. It’s not hard, specially if you believe they’re synonyms. Use grifting instead.
