I really wonder what is going on in their head when they 'shop themselves into oblivion. On some level I feel sorry for them, because they must have serious mental issues. But on the other hand they are a-holes promoting a toxic culture to a wide and often very impressionable audience.

Some of these filters are ridiculously fake looking, do these people actually think they make them look sexy? Also, level of denial of when some of these 'influencers' get called out is ridiculous.

It's really sad that so many people feel the need to contrive themselves into something that barely looks human.

I feel sorry for them, and for the society in general. They wouldn't do that if they didn't feel like they had to

Very sad to see how some people distort their reality to such extent.

This is a really sad state for society :(

Some of these are so outrageously bizarre and over the top that you can’t help but laugh a little, but some of the others are honestly disturbing and quite sad.

some of these are probably becuase of insecurity an unreleasistic expectations but people obviously go way too far and look like their eyes are gonna pop out their heads and that they clearly have no internal organs

Quite a few of these make me really sad. People skewing their appearances to such an extreme is troubling.

I think about the misguided efforts. Hours and hours devoted to sitting and editing these fake things. Not for being taken as fake but as real. It's worse then bragging about it. Here you've made up an entire narrative to support a lie (the travel pictures) on top of worrying you'll be asked a question about "that place" at some point. On the other hand these people are so deluded and fake they could get away with it with a histrionic wave of a hand. Pathetic. In their old age theyll look at these photos of their youth "fake spent" in Mexico and think how they were behind a computer one saturday afternoon. Not a moment. Not an experience. Nothing learned. Just time wasted....

I weep for our children.

We have a very insecure generation coming to be.........it is really sad

This article tells you everything you need to know about people and how fake they are... if this is what they do to the images of their likeness in order to convince people who they are, then what does that say about the words that come out of their mouths?

So many of the edited pictures look like anime or comics--it makes me wonder if that was the intention with them. They just don't look like photos anymore. So I guess I am thinking of giving some folks the benefit of the doubt.

A lot of these are fine. Sometimes very little difference and within the bounds of acceptable editing (the kind professionals do all the time). Others.... 🤢

You dummies. Only take selfies on a plain white or black background so you can liquify all you want without the bendy lines in the background. Then do us all a favor and never leave the house.

If they spent as much time eating healthily, working out and getting some much needed therapy they'd be much happier and feel better about themselves.

I blame the Kardashians for all this mess. Ladies, it's a minority of men who prefer that fake look. But hey, maybe they're trying to do it to impress other women, and not to impress men.

In my opinion,just sad.

Well enough about me, what do you think of me?

Anyone who thinks that these people actually look like that have spend way too much time on line.

People are really sick in their minds, in a not normal and acceptable way. Thanks for the nightmare.

I feel like getting angry about this is just as toxic as the environment that makes these people think they need to look like this. It almost feels like bullying to me to "call out" people for changing their appearance. These are obviously extremely insecure people.

Snapchat, instagram, tiktok, etc....users need to chill out with the filters/photoshopping. Quit turning to strangers on the internet to validate yourself. Also...who do influencer's actually influence? What do they "influence" us to do? Please go get a life and a real job that actually contributes to society in a positive fashion.
