False Popularity

False popularity is the illusion of being popular. This is when supporters do not actually believe in the person/thing they seem to be supporting. This is often caused by the supporters feeling forced or as if they have to support someone.
*Photos*on*Facebook* "LIKE AND SHARE IF YOU LOVE GOD; KEEP SCROLLING IF YOU WANT TO BURN IN HELL". This makes most people feel like they have to like and share the photo, thus making this false popularity.

False Leadership

Similar to False Hustle in its blatant vomit inducing cosplay, False Leadership is typically seen in the work place, specifically in company meetings, emails with many people cc'd, or over-thanking people to their superiors.

The main goal is to portray one's self as a great leader, specifically in the eyes of their bosses.

It elicits rage from people who witness it on a consistent basis.
*In a Weekly Team Meeting*

Carly: I had Neil run some data tests for me, and then had Ignacio compare them to the other dates.

Neil: Ugh, false leadership. My JOB is to run data tests, I did them on my own accord. We have not spoken in 2 weeks.

Carly: *Looking at her boss Mark* Neil, that work really helped the team alot and helped me with my presentation. Thank you.

Neil: Kill me now.

False respect

When somebody tries to make it seem like they respect somebody they don't really respect to get them to do something they want them to do (to get the best of somebody). Not everybody will pretend to respect somebody, but a lot of people will.
Lucky for you, you never needed the guy's false respect (or true respect) to keep going.

False metal

"False metal" is a term created by Manowar in the 80s to describe glam metal music.

Nowadays it also includes nu metal, deathcore, metalcore and similar genres. Some people also include DSBM (depressive suicidal black metal).
Me: These idiots seem to be sure it's metal.

DSBM guy: It is? Why, what, eh?

Me fr: Go listen to some Aura Noir. Death to false metal!
