Fictional Image Projection


Posts: 517

Ever since the first day you joined this website and made your first post, you have slowly attempted to project a fictional image of yourself. There are no real facts in a website like this. Over time, you can convince some weaker minded users you are who you say you are. But in reality not even your sex can be concrete evidence, if you play your cards right.

So many of you put so much effort into what you say, when you say it, and how you present it. That alone is obvious fiction. Not unlike a puzzle everything you say is a piece of who you WANT to be seen as in the eyes of others here.
There are a lot of you who have become lost in this imaginary world, not just on this site but many others. To the point of believing that this website is just as much reality as the life you live outside of the internet.

Online you are merely a series of words, images, and a specific name you have chosen to build this fictional image around. This website is only as real as you make it to be in your mind. But yet you all try so desperately to defend your image when it is questioned or challenged. Why is it so important to you that everyone believes without a question of doubt who or what you are? Do you see, let's say, doctors going online desperately seeking confirmation from others that they are indeed doctors?

The only logical explanation is that most of you have lost touch with reality and have become lost in this fictional online world. So desperately seeking to convince others through different means of communication that you are who you say you are either directly or indirectly. Step back and see the reality of who you ARE and not who you want to be seen as.

The members who wish to defend themselves because of this entry are the ones I'm speaking of. Subliminally you will be threatened by this post. Because of the fact it attacks you and your outlook of this and other social medias. Some of you will agree with me for the most part. But will use my post as a foot step to question my beliefs in order to again project this fictional image you have spent so much time creating.

Just remember there is no logical reason why someone who is in fact a specific label, would go online and attempt to prove to strangers they are in fact who they claim to be. That in a fact is and will always be fictional.

Try and find an angle to debunk this fact with. :)

There's always meeting people here in person to see how much does and doesn't fit the reality.

Any person with even the tiniest shred of social skills adapts to the group they're in. They're always projecting a version of themselves, wherever they go. Online is no different. The beauty of this place is that people will choose some very specific ways to project themselves.

They can larp as sociopaths, showing the darker sides of themselves.

Or, they can try to genuinely show their real selves, how they believe to be deep down.

Obviously some people might have other purposes, and present themselves differently because of those. But most people here represent one of the two above, or an overlap of them.

 

You're just presenting a view of things. You're not making a point here. You accuse us of something we're doing, as if it's wrong to do it. "Step back and see the reality of who you ARE and not who you want to be seen as.", Who am I even? Suppose there is such a real self of mine, I wouldn't project it more than I'm trying to project the second mask I talked about.

 

"Just remember there is no logical reason why someone who is in fact a specific label, would go online and attempt to prove to strangers they are in fact who they claim to be. That in a fact is and will always be fictional.

Here's an angle: because for whatever reason, they want to be seen as having that specific label. They will even exaggerate the traits of their personality which give them this label. That's a reason as logical as any.

Why do they want that? For whatever reason they would want such a thing, I don't know them to know why they want it. I can just observe that they do.

 

Edit: Gee, replying to this thread, on this forum, presenting myself how I present myself on this forum, helps cement the way I want to present myself on this forum. I have truly been seen through. This is definitely not a tautology, but rather a piece of valuable insight. 

 

A shadow not so dark.

It is too much of a messy, time consuming investment into the online interactions of others to pick apart what exactly is their projected image from their actual self. 

I take people as they present themselves, the discrepancies matter little to me. My interest in these places is to trade ideas and to conversate

I am with you, even unto the end of the age

This isn't universally true but in a different context Spite could have probably been spot on.
