How often does a post on social media make you react, "why would you post this"?

[Investigator]

Do y'all notice how many "pick me's" there are online―people who feel like it is their right to have people pay attention to them―who will post just the most inane, insufferable sh*t, just to get noticed? Posting crimes, posting GRWM (Get Ready With Me), posting themselves sitting in a car while drinking a Starbucks Frappucino or doing something else other than just sitting silence, and its all just window dressing to go on a tirade over for some stupid bullsh*t that they did or said or some other self-inflicted drama.

How often do you wonder to yourself, "yo, WTF was that? What did I just watch? Why would you POST this?" Maybe you have grievances (valid ones), but you have too much self-respect to make your issues everyone else's problem as well and call attention to yourself. So, when you see these mind-numbing rants and egregiously bad attention-seeking behaviors being rewarded, you are left in utter disbelief that supposedly "grown adults" unabashedly act this way. They're proud of it. It's not shameful, it's triumphant

Oh my gawd, all of the time! Make it stop!

On occasion

That's a thing? I hadn't noticed.

Show me the results

People who try to attract attention on social media by portraying themselves as the perfect, the best, most beautiful, most handsome, strongest, and most honest person are actually doing it because they're deeply lonely. They're very lonely and feel unloved. They're so lonely that they desperately need fake praise and compliments from ordinary people on social media. If they had even one person in their lives who loved them, cared about them, and gave them attention, they wouldn't feel the need to show off and seek attention on social media. In my opinion, the only problem these people have is extreme loneliness and not getting enough attention from the people around them.
