a mechanism of identity creation which Hans-Georg Moeller and Paul D’Ambrosio in You and Your Profile, have termed profilicity, is closer related to sincerity than authenticity. profilicity is other-directed and reliant on the reactions of an audience. With sincerity, one’s family and community are the audiences that cast judgment on how sincerely, or properly, one plays the pre-determined roles.
Online social media being the audience instead of family and local community causes people to be less authentic and more conforming to online profile expectations. temptation is to do what gets likes, subscribers, and followers.
Authenticity is not other-directed because your mirror is the audience. self-creation is independent of pressure to get likes and subscribers and followers. The more humble self-creation is creating the authentic self. Lead me not into temptation.
sincerity is not as authentic because the audience is others and unknowingly we all wish to conform and be accepted so we adapt to what is expected. Success at being sincere builds EGO and shrinks humility for it comes with the praise of the audience.

Get the serial profiler mug.is the inclusion of previous criminal history or convictions when determining whether a person is considered likely to commit a particular type of crime or an illegal act or to behave in a "predictable" manner. It should not be confused with the more comprehensive Offender Profiling, Psychological Profiling or Racial Profiling. It is believed that as we move deeper into the 21st century, the practice has the potential to become more controversial among the general public. The practice of Felon Profiling is commonly abused by law enforcement as they interact and come into contact with the ever increasing number of convicted felons, many of whom harbor harsh feelings of felony disenfranchisement and social out casting due to their treatment in main stream society as felons.
