It’s wildly funny to me to see how many people are finally able to get their blue check on IG and Facebook.
.
Here’s the deal…
.
You DIDN’T earn it.
.
You DIDN’T create a big enough impact to have gotten enough attention to be in the news.
.
You DIDN’T do something big enough that got media outlets to notice you.
.
You DIDN’T share enough value, enough of your message, or your creativity to have fake accounts make of you, requiring you need to be verified.
.
What you did…
.
Is pay $14.99.
.
THATS IT.
.
And now you’re flaunting your checkmark on your stories and posts, all excited about it…
.
But deep down inside…
.
You’re trying to get the smallest rush… the smallest taste… about what it feels like to be famous and have a blue check…
.
You’re chasing that dopamine hit that’s actually never going to hit…
.
It’d be the same feeling you’d get putting on a Fake Rolex, or wearing a “dupe” LV bag, or scoring some fake Jordans.
.
You didn’t EARN IT.
.
You paid for it.
.
You can’t “pay your way” into buying the item that gives you the feeling of accomplishing something big or impacting millions.
.
You gotta earn that shit.
.
PS…
.
Yes… I did buy the blue check mark.
.
But it’s because I understand that you need to play the game by their rules.
.
Sadly if you don’t… you’ll be wondering why your engagement is dropping, your views are dropping, and your account is “shadow banned”
.
It’s just how these companies operate 🥲
