I was an actor. I was surrounded by ego and delusion all the time.

There were even a few that would act as those slimeballs are acting.

But today, we have a generation of 'influencers' who are literally 'whores for clicks'. They have renounced their ethics and their humanity for a few dollars and some groupies. That type will do anything to get attention.

ANYTHING.

So, we need to be vigilant and we need to be ruthless in our ridicule and exposure of anyone who is playing this game to get attention while literally damaging the social contract in the name of a few clicks.

Which is 99% of them.
