We all saw and read the news about celebrities, like we know things about their private lives 24/7 and even though we said that we don't want to know, the news and information just keep being forced to us. And for someone who chronically online all the time, seeing the news about celebrities sounds like we are part of their lives and when they fucked up we feel to obligated to say something about it. I don't know yet what the scientific name for it but I like to called it 'involuntary parasocial behavior' because we thought that just because we followed them on social media or we consumed and knows about their private lives, somehow it gives the right to called them names or even canceled them. It makes us like the judges, the juries, and the executioner when in fact we are no one in their lives, we are strangers that happen to be in the same internet ecosystem with them. And the worst part is, their problematic behavior dictates our lives. Like, we based our daily even life choices from those celebrities. We let the news about them effects us daily. Honey, we keep saying don't let other people ruins our day, but we let those celebrities, those influencers to ruins our day with their problems. Their private problems ffs. We called them problematic, well there's news to you: we are all problematic in someone else's lives. Please stop letting celebrities (and/or influencers) dictates your life. They're human, just like you. Stop treating them as moral compass or something above. Human are messy. We are messy. Let's live this messy life without worrying or even angry over someone else messes.
