How long till the next-gen ~~grifters~~ thought leaders begin filtering into sneerspaces en masse and claiming that they saw the collapse coming before anyone else?

Honestly, I don't see a way for grifters to wedge themselves into sneerspaces - not easily, at least.

Grifters require some degree of uncritical hype to get by in a space - given sneerspaces are built to make fun of such uncritical hype, building it up here would be very difficult, if not damn-nigh impossible.

Besides, there's much more lucrative spaces for grifters to venture into, like venture capital.
