>What a miserable feeling, chasing numbers, producing and contributing nothing real to humanity. Yeah. This isn't exclusive to social media influencers, though

  The thing is, the people who do it don't know that's all they are doing. It's meaningful to them. False hope is a terrible thing.

    Again, nothing special about social media/influencers here. Are not most modern jobs like this?

      This is what honestly terrifies me more than anything - being in a dire enough financial situation to need to do bullshit work and waste my short time on this Earth for food and shelter. In my experience meaningful jobs are in insanely high demand - they substantially underpay, require substantially more qualifications, and are much more scarce than adding another cog to the cancer of finance, advertising, or business service.

    #authentic <- I don't think that means what they think it means.
