Watched a show about her on tv last night.
Amazing how a young split tail with only 2 semesters of college scammed people out of millions of dollars.

A young female.
Nobody could call out her bullshite.
Any Chemist, biologist, etc could have called bullshite.
But, also would risk career.
Total group think.
Just like covid doomsday ppl.
John Ioannidis from Stanford called her bullshite.

He's also a big Covid "Truther" as he knows it's bullshite.

If it wasn't the HBO documentary you need to check that out too. it's scathing. so many layers to that story. her intentional deep voice and slew of tony robbin like lines will make you want to jump off a building

Watched documentary a while back. She had some balls to hold all that together and play it off as long as she did.

If you're interested in the subject you should read Bad Blood. She was ruthless.

There is a huge push in Silicone Valley for someone other than a straight white male to succeed in the Tech world. Facts or competencies be damned. Here you have a perfect example of how this can go wrong.

Her dad was a VP at Enron. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

The book "bad blood" is an excellent read

Her blood test fiasco was a cautionary tale on so many things wrong with our economy and society in general. Her adventures were melange of greed, hope, misplaced confidence and ignorance. Just another example of why you let technical subject matter expertise, not marketing hype drive an operation.

She knew all of the right people, she was marginally attractive and she's probably a sociopath. She fed them the right line of BS and they wanted to believe it.
I really don't think she's all that different from a lot of billionaires that actually make it as far as crossing ethical boundaries. I think the majority of them commit fraud at some point. Her scamming was just her way of business, and not a means to an legitimate end.

What was the deal with the tranny that worked for her...? The one that claimed he/she was the only one who wasn't scared to stand up to her.....Ana Arriola..
Was an IPhone designer..
You know what they say, you can paint a school bus purple, you still know it's a school bus..
Ah, was a dude... George Arriola...
