It's sad...
They're told what opinions to have, who they can be friends with, what to say and do...
They have no free will of their own, no ability to lead free lives anymore...
And for what? Fame? Wealth? That's it?

Maybe the future of "stardom" will be different, with people having control over their own popularity online, the future of all media is the internet.
For now it's mostly controlled by the individuals themselves, though with the advent of sponsorships on YouTube and Instagram etc., it's gotten faker as the years have gone by.
Seems like an inevitable degradation of everything...
Seems like things which start out good and free end up being infiltrated by negative forces.
The fakery will not be tolerated in the future at least for a decent amount of time...
Fakeness that has pervaded hollywood etc. will be rejected, looked down upon.
The only thing people will respect and want to emulate will be realness, naturalness.
It'll be a good time... won't last, but it'll be good while it does.
Fuck being controlled by handlers, stripped of your individuality all for the sake of money/fame...
We're gonna do something else.
