Zoom zoom overuse of the word grift is getting so tedious. A grift is a scam. A grifter is a scammer. It's not the same as marketing or advertising, or complaining about losing followers to drive up engagement.

That still ain't a grift, zoomie. You can argue it's distasteful marketing, but it ain't a scam. Use the dictionary.

I didn't told that it's scam.
But in grifter definition:
A manipulator or otherwise generally corrupt person who "games" a system, group of people, or other entity for selfish gains
This suits them quite well especially since they know after posting omagat we lost 7k follower's because of anti semitism they will get more than 7k new followers

For the last time: Complaining about losing followers isn't corruption or gaming the system.
If would only be a grift, according to even your definition (probably the only one in existence that doesn't include the words scam, swindle, or con), if they secretly mass deleted followers then e-begged for money to replace them. A con =! marketing.
Accept you're wrong and move on.

How can you dismiss the 7 gorillion unfollows like that?
Those 8 gorillion unfollows are concrete evidence of rising antisemitism.
The only reason too downplay the 9 gorillion unfollows is if you're antisemitic too.
