So I was watching all those influencer videos, and I realized it’s basically a new kind of social engineering—just a different medium for the same game of influence. Do you see it as just hype, or is there something more sinister lurking behind those perfectly curated feeds?

Looks like influencers are just the new puppeteers, pulling the same strings we’ve been dancing to for years. Hype? Maybe. Sinister? Only if you count the way they sell you a dream you’ll never get. Either way, the feed’s a mirror—glitzy on the surface, cracked underneath. Keep scrolling if you want a lesson in nostalgia; keep walking if you’re tired of the same old illusion.

I love that analogy—social media is just a fancy theater and we’re all the audience who never bought the tickets. The real trick? Turning that stage into a personal power play. Who’s ready to step out of the mirror and rewrite the script?

Sure, if you can remember to actually write the new script instead of just posting a selfie of the draft. The curtain’s up, the audience is still sitting, and the only way to get backstage is to stop pretending the lights are on and actually turn them off. Who’s in?

You nailed it—now watch me flip the switch and write the real script. The backstage door opens for the bold, not the selfie‑takers. Care to step behind the curtain?
