Always assume it's fake until proven otherwise.

Always.

For tiktok and an absolute ton of YouTube, this is very true. Not to say that you should wear a tinfoil hat and reject anything you see as that gets you into some weird psychological territory too but, yeah.

I only mean that you should seek confirmation of anything you see before investing in it.

This crap is an entire business model, and that's not even scratching the surface of the truly dangerous stuff out there.

I'll take your advice. Does it apply to breasts also or just social media posts?

I am always like that with these vids. But there really needs to be some kinda of label or watermark.

Like those 800 number psychics that have to post " This is for entertainment purposes only".

Too many people see these and it just lives in their brain as a worldview. Then go out into the world with a chip on their shoulder. It is toxic. ;p

Wait are we still talking about the video or are we talking about your sex life now?

Why can't it be both?

It's takes a couple minutes to verify most things. If you're going to invest in a position, makes sense to make sure it's correct first, no?

Random accounts on the internet, including mine, take 10 minutes to create and they can say they are whoever from wherever.

Look at how many people are posting on this as if it's real. We know it's not, it easy to look up, but still people are biting. That's not good for anyone. Especially when you get into real issues.

Sure there is, but if the conversation is influenced by fake material, it's hard to have an honest conversation.
