Pretend

They don't want to pretend! You hear that? They don't want to pretend.

Hym "As they actively pretend I didn't just create A.I. at a whim to demonstrate my abject superiority to all men, women, and children... They don't want to pretend trans women are female... As they pretend a fat man is breaking in to the house one a year to give their piece of shit kids presents (even though they are bad and don't deserve presents)... They don't want to pretend."

Pretender syndrome

When someone has no idea of how a subculture works and has no willingness to lurk but still pretends to know everything about said subculture. Commonly seen on various forums, large and small.

People with Pretender Syndrome have no will to assimilate to the forum culture and will instead attempt to force their own ideals onto the community. They will take basic surface level knowledge (ie memes) and spout them with very little knowledge of the memes themselves. Often completely misuse the memes as a result.
Attempts to name the jew will result in autistic screeching.

Hey, that tranny's got Pretender Syndrome. He's completely shitting up our forum with his ideas of diversity and equality. Let's ban him before he ruins it

Pretending I don't

Pretending I do so you can keep pretending I don't.

Keep Pretending

THAT is what they want to do. It doesn't matter what they call it.

Hym "They want to keep pretending. They keep pretending that when a kid in Wausau murders his own parents... That MY THING wouldn't have stopped it from happening. They are going to HIDE whether or not it was the result of the weaponized schizophrenia because they don't want to have to give up on the idea of CONTROLLING OTHER PEOPLE'S MINDS in a way that THEY KNOW does not work. It doesn't matter how many people they have to sweep under the rug, as long as they can keep pretending that their minds are not inferior. This is and always has been about PROVING ME WRONG, regardless of whether or not I actually AM wrong, and then covering up evidence that I am right so that the public doesn't turn on them and take THEIR shit away. AS THEY SHOULD. These people are mentally retarded garbage and the deserve LESS THAN NOTHING. It isn't about protecting kids or morality or anything that I did. It is about NOT HAVING TO LIVE BENEATH ME... IN SPITE OF THE FACT that it is WHERE THEY BELONG."

Pretend-planning

Plans are made but only exist as mere ideas. These plans never take place. This does not mean that anyone disapproved of the plans; in fact, those involved usually have fun working through the planning process. However, usually, it is silently mutually understood that the plans are significantly more likely NOT to take place than to follow through.

Individuals that were involved in the initial planning usually stop committing after the excitement surrounding it has died down & reality has set in.
This is a tale-old occurrence that many of us will experience in our lives: the process of pretend-planning

Ex: The type of plans that you & your out-of-state boo make every other weekend, except they never follow through. The reality of the long distance between you 2 makes it difficult to commit.

While on their weekend hiking trip, their pretend-planning lead them to opt for brunch and bottomless mimosas instead of hitting the trails.
