Social Media As WWE

Here's what I have to think is a near-perfect example of the Donald Trump effect.


I think the probability is low that this guy actually believes what he posted. "Influencers" do this as a way to boost their "engagement" numbers, which puts money in their pockets for having brought eyeballs to their page, which means their sponsors have a chance to put their shit in front of potential buyers.

The WWE thing kicks in because there's no need for principles when all you care about is attracting the attention of the passersby.

Trump has taught these parasites well. It doesn't matter if you're the Hero or the Heel. The whole point is to get somebody to swing a spotlight in your direction.
