My Facebook news feed has become clogged with people trying to either recruit you, sell to you or give testimonials on how their particular pyramid scheme product has changed their lives. Plexus people seem to be particularly fanatical because of Plexus's bogus health claims seems to draw in the desperate, diabetics, those with nerve pain, ect. I looked into Plexus and saw that the FDA and issued statements for them to stop advertising their products as medicine, but they have not.
I actually started to play a game to see how angry I can get these people who clog my news feed with that drivel. I point out the fact they are participating in an illegal pyramid scheme, they of course deny it, so, I send them a link on the characteristics of pyramid schemes. They typically are still in denial and state something about how they do not care and Plexus has changed their life. I tell them they were probably eating like crap before and they are more conscience of what they eat now. By the way, Plexus' protein drink is about triple the cost of what you can find elsewhere. At this point they cry fowl and state some study the company did. I then ask them to show me a study published in a peer reviewed journal. And then they block me or start ignoring me.
