Of all money making ventures, from every corporation, to every politician and campaign, even down to things on Kickstarter and Tik Tok.
But if you're going to be so skeptical you'll need to understand the rules of evidence, and have a reasonable criteria for changing your mind. Otherwise you'll become a paranoid anti-vaxxer who believes Lizard People are in control.
Also skepticism isn't necessarily a happy life, so you might want to keep that in mind!
I aim for contentment through awareness, because happiness is a state I can't maintain. This leads to good moments of happiness that outweighs the unhappiness though.

You're an intern
On wikileaks

Come and knock on the door we've been waiting for you

Reclusive aggressive
Yingin and yanging noided
Info warrior jack the hacker
The rolling stoner
Profit on disaster
My existence is a
Momentary lapse of reason
Got the DNA of gothic lemons
Shred it thirteen times
Out of eleven
Your bad ideas are the ATM
Shed my skin
Leave it for the homeless
To sleep in
Prodigal, fuck that nautical
Teachin bitches how to swim
