I would like to thank my boy Ethan for this exclusive, breaking news story. Shout-outs to all the Hila Kleiners out there.
So, long story short: Instagram people like to photoshop themselves to be more "beautiful" to absolutely impossible standards.
While you can talk about that all you want, what I'm more worried about is why, and no, not why they commit the unspeakable crime of elevating themselves beyond their status as lowly peasant peons... But rather why they feel the need to. Who decided that it's really necessary to do this? Why is it that people want to be Greek god levels of beautiful?
Frankly, I don't think Instagram is the problem itself, but rather the culmination of this glorification of perfection. Not only are they wealthy and powerful, they're also... Bangable, because when I'm a rich powerful person, I also want people to want to have sex with me at the same time. They're American success stories... And that's what really bothers me. This? This is American success? Being an Instagram model? Being rich for no reason? Being credited as smart for mass-teasing people sexually on the Internet?
And that's not even getting into their attempts at politics, from Tana Mongeau's brand of hypocritical egalitarianism to Coby Persin's brand of pedophilic fearmongering to goddamn Joey Salads setting up a fake Trump/Pence hate "experiment".
Is Instagram a disease all it's own, or a symptom of a larger issue in America? What should be done about the fabrication of perfection? Is perfection really worth it? What is perfection, even?
Edit: at the request of His Holyness, The Rictus Erectus, Conserative Morality, an article has been procured, confirming that it isn't just "Instagram models" engaging in this activity, it is also actual models employed by actual corporations.

Excluding professional models whose job is to look perfect, why would the rest not want to look good and happy? Would you rather have instagram promote ugly, sad people instead? Or is it a problem because it happens on the internet? Do you perhaps feel intimidated by women (models or not) expressing their sexuality?
Maybe it's just not for everyone. What a concept! If good-looking people on instagram are such a strong, devilish force for you, maybe don't use that platform. Nobody's forcing you to do so. I don't and I'm not missing anything. I'd also recommend not watching something as shitty as H3H3 but that's your choice as well.Washington Resistance Army wrote:Social media in general is a cancer that has harmed younger generations in more ways than one.

Instagram vs. Reality, and The Inevitability of Communism.

Jokes aside, gone were the days when I would post some shots of myself. Nowadays, I just have a "business" account so that I can post my hobbyist shots, all for no profit, and sometimes spending a dollar or two to promote them if I took something pretty noteworthy in my eyes.
My primary account is... well, a bit empty now. I don't really follow most of the famous Instagram accounts, because sometimes, beauty doesn't have a single standard to me. People are beautiful in their own ways.
Rather than looking at perfected beauty, I think we should just spread a little positive word to those less well-known people, or even your friends. Nothing too cheesy if you don't want to, just something along the line of "Hey, man, looking great today! Have a nice day!" would cheer people up. ^^
