The Capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them.
― Vladimir Ilich Lenin
This comment is not legal advice.
Sell the people torches and pitchforks, which they promptly use to stab and char you. As they say, sell them shovels in a gold rush.
Except today, it would be a shovel that is designed to break at around 100 uses so that you have to come back to buy a new shovel every few days or so.
You rent the shovel and it's geotagged to your region.
Nah see, the trick is to first convince the buyers other average people are the enemy. Double the sales, none of the consequences.
Great quote, gotta keep that one in pocket for when this “hypocrisy” is pointed out every few days
I am the walrus?

—Major George Racey Jordan
