through the false light

I've become so disenchanted with the internet; people who think their words online truly change their ego. Small men in large cages with the masks of lions and tigers and bears. So many people use the internet to flex their ego, and it's such total bullshit.
It seems to me like people go so far out of their way to insult, belittle, begrudge others and put themselves across as so confident, so amazing, so god-fucking-damned breath taking and witty that you just must bow down to them because they are that wonderful.
The manipulators of the world have known it since the dawn of time - the big secret - if you project yourself as a king, those with a weak ego will look up to you as if you are one.
All it takes is telling people that you are amazing for them to believe it, if their own ego is weak enough, but online this whole system shifts. It is much more simple to project yourself as something you are not, and it's much easier to get people to follow you and believe you because all they see is that which you allow to be seen.
As such, they see no flaw, they see only perfect confidence.
It's total bullshit.

Down with Internet Egomaniac Syndrom!

You've always been well-spoken (at least in writing, so would that be
"well-written"?....oh fuck it.)

People can be asses Thats all I have to say about your entry, really.

Have you seen all the "video bloggers" on youtube? This guy cracks me up sometimes:
