An individual whom on account of a meager internet following, is under the delusion that other people actually give a shit about what they have to say.
Did you hear Mark just hit 1000 views on his YouTube channel? He’s now calling himself an “influencer”

Get the Influencermug. Not to be confused with "power", influence can be broken down into two dimensions. First we have "direct" influence which is "I tell you to do something. You do the thing I tell you to do." The motivating principle can vary and include Monetary gain (I pay you to do things), status (You respect me or my station and want to please me), allegiance (We are on the same team and/or I have elevated status within a group). Secondly we have "indirect". This happens when a "credible source" posits a "school of thought" or a "framework of conceptualization". As soon as an individual accepts the framework; they are effectively "under the influence" of the source (albeit indirectly) and will then act out the tenets of the framework without needing to be told what to do. This influence can be Benevolent, Malevolent, or Benign.
Iam "Ok. So, yeah. That, I think, kind of vaguely ties into the 'influence' concept that I've been trying to flesh out (i.e. Purple-Man theory). So, let's say I posit a "framework of conceptualization". I outline the tenets of the framework and you accept it as "truth". This framework (now) becomes the lens through which you view the world and you will likely act out the framework and the tenets as outlined without the need for me to use "direct influence". This raises several questions. The first of which being 'Are you the framework you've adopted or the ego that adopts the framework'? You could also ask 'to what degree does the framework usurp the ego (if at all)'? So... I guess we'll start there."
Hym "They are the framework. That's the presupposition of the NPC (Non-Player Character) nomenclature that I coined in the earlier stages of my work. By adopting the framework you become the framework and act it out completely."
Iam "Well, no... Not entirely. There is always some deviation from the framework and through argumentation and conversation you can get people see the nuance that exists outside of the framework."
Hym "But they always default to the framework after the conversation ends. We've seen it many times. Cognitive dissonance prevents the actor from adding or subtracting from the initial framework."

Get the Sphere of influencemug. Power-hungry sub-human garbage who think they are societies "normalizers" and extra-judicial "accountability police."
Hym "Now... I wonder why it kept saying 'servers down...' after I tried to post that 'Biased Lawyer' bit... But when I deleted the 'YouTube Influencers' part it went through... Let's see..."

Get the YouTube Influencersmug. A self absorbed narcissist thats most of the times stuck in their delusion of a dystopia that revolves around them. The reason this breed has money is by selling their body on social media and stepping on each other every chance they get. Also involved in lots of nefarious scandals/scams.
If your too stupid to make a decent living and is desperate enough consider being an influencer at the cost of your morals and self respect.
Shes an influencer don't take her seriously shell probably try and get you to sign up for her 30day instagram program.

Get the Influencermug. A probable description towards certain but not all, however most is a tool who believes their following size is their absolute bank account. Look down on those who has average followers. Preaches on humility when they genuinely only engage with other influencers on identical social capital. Use their position to market products blatantly with minimal creativity and maximum superficiality so that they get more reach. The problem with this strategy, delivery is that audience usually have poor memory lifespan on the product and the person themselves when they become irrelevant.
I can't talk to John anymore. We used to be friends but now that he's an influencer, he won't talk to me eventhough I'm a Senior Executive of a local bank and he's some ordinary Sales Assistant outside.
