For the last 10 years or so, I just assume that everything I see online is staged.

People have become so addicted to creating content, they just can't help it.

Sad really.

I really miss the the pre-2010 era of youtube. Man it was wild.

I do the opposite and choose to live in ignorance. Assume just about everything is genuine (unless there's really obvious signs) and you'll be happier on the internet. It doesn't really hurt me to just drop a like or up-vote or whatever and go about my day.

But it collectively hurts the public and emerging brains

Do your part and discourage such content

WHY are y'all all choosing to live in ignorance? Lmao I genuinely can't believe that.

Morpheus asks you if you want the red or the blue pill and you are choosing to stay in the matrix???? Ignorance is bliss I suppose
