They play numerous recordings of speeches from people preaching the ideas of taking responsibility for your own success and comment on them like they are crazy far right wing zealotd


Yes they do and I agree people should take responsibility of their own success (and failure), but they do it in a manner in which they are telling people that if they do not succeed in that company, no one else is to blame. Yet statistically, they telling this to a group in which statistically, 99% of the group will likely not have success in a company.

So they are telling people "hey, join our company. you can have success, but if you don't.. it's because you are a failure". It's feeding vulnerable people bullshite.

I do recall that comment, but if I do recall she was saying it in a "statistically speaking" type way.

There are numerous jabs at Trump throughout the show


They do mention Trump a few times. But the one I recall was a man who called in to give his story in dealing with a MLM. The company the person who was trying to recruit him was a company Trump endorsed.

That was stating a fact. He endorsed a MLM named ACN. He also sold his name to a MLM that wanted to use the Trump name.. Trump Network. If you are going to do an 11 episode show on MLMs, then because of his involvement in these and several other MLMs, he will be mentioned to some degree.

It takes a leftist approach to the ideas of success and personal responsibility. In other words, it's outright hostile to those ideas.


Yeah because we don't get enough of that already.
