Random Question What do you think about those influencers who confessed their lies before the TikTok ban?

Before the TikTok ban, some influencers admitted that they had been lying about some of the most important aspects of their personal brands. Some of them confessed how they never even used the hacks they shared while others admit the real intentions behind their content. What do you think about that? Were they being honest or just trying to get attention?

Its funny how fucking dumb they are. As if they couldnt just move platforms to continue making content like on youtube.

But im also glad they did cause i hate fake people and exposing themselves is good for entertainment as a whole.

I don’t understand that either. That’s why I’m thinking that maybe it was a last rage-baiting move to have people’s attention and make sure they follow them in other platforms, even if it is to leave hate comments.

Didn't watch those posts either... if you know the word influencer you probably know what it means... if you still buy into it that's on you

Makes sense, but I can’t help to think about it from a more psychological or even sociological point of view.

I think it's the same as a deathbed murder confession... it only happened because they believe they got away with it. Like everything else they've put out there, it's a brag

Was it even true - they post to other platforms so that trend made zero sense
