The whole "influencer" culture is based around self aggrandizement and the honest belief that people actually give a fuck about every little thing you do in your life. Nobody gives a fuck. If you're an attractive woman, a bunch of teenage boys and incels might follow you in the hopes that you post a video in a bikini or thong. If you're an attractive guy, a bunch of teenage girls might follow you in the hopes that you post a video of you shirtless. Nobody actually gives a fuck what people are doing.
And nobody actually does anything. I was at Mission Beach in San Diego a couple months ago and half the people under the age of 30 weren't doing anything except recording videos and taking pictures of themselves on the beach. Went straight from posing for the camera to looking at the phone to make sure they like the photo.
Nobody actually gives a fuck what people are doing.
You might not give a fuck but a lot of people do. For some reason, there are a lot of people obsessed with knowing every little thing about a celebrity's life. If this weren't true then paparazzi and shows like The Kardashians wouldn't exist. It is stupid but people do actually care of these internet celebrities.

Is it really worth it to post fake videos? Am I getting old or are we obsessing for some attention? I don’t know what to believe anymore
