    I think it’s analogous to the joke where you say: “I’d call you a monkey but that’d be an insult to monkeys”

    MLMs are legal and pyramid schemes are not. I don’t know the legal details but I imagine it’s because of the tricky pay scheme and that people are losing money and that the fact that MLMs can’t be called pyramid schemes due to some weird rule is laughable because they seem worse.
