I've always found something profoundly deceiving about all these "just create value posts", as if absolutely everyone could simply by some hard work actually create significant value for others.

The barrier to being able to add any value along the supply chain is shriking daily, meaning that very few people can actually add value.

The people that have managed to get on top of the system by these mean rarely aknowledge that their methods don't scale, which is a terribly irresponsible and ultimately narcissistic way to use their ideological influence.

If you give advice to a group, it should either scale to most of the group or aknowledge up front it's exceptionalistic.
