Honestly if you don't see the inherent problem with:
... Just straight up, you have a mental disability if you think this is fine. You are cognitively impaired, you should not be trusted with any kind of decision making.
You're just telling everyone you are a-ok with being robbed, in some certain set of conditions... any exploitative person or entity that has any experience exploiting people knows that you just have to construct a narrative/experience where the conditions of being robbed that you will accept, slowly expand and grow over time.
You are telling the world you are easy to scam and trick. And in a world where you need money to continue existing, in the vast majority of cases... this is functionally suicidality or at least self-harm/self-destructive behavior.
This is a subsection of the Great Filter. If you can't pass this test, sorry, you're fucked, you are too stupid to persist much longer in your environment.
This is such a logically dubious position to attempt to maintain and argue for that I very truly cannot see another explanation for it other than... the person that holds that position genuienly is cognitively diminished.
