KAYFABE UNIVERSITY | Rod Palmer & Richard Greaser
- Kayfabe—the concept that modern life, especially online, is performative theater where everyone knows the rules are scripted but plays along anyway.
- Role of social media algorithms and fake engagement (bots, inflated follower counts) in manufacturing reality and controlling narratives.
- How clinical psychopaths and sociopaths use kayfabe as a survival mechanism to retain power and exploit others across institutions.
- Generational differences in kayfabe adoption: millennials reactionary, Gen Z proactive and monetizing suffering before it happens.
- Authenticity as a superpower in an environment where everything is fake; small, engaged audiences outperform massive bot-filled followings.
- Communist kayfabe in the West: how ideology spreads through university professors and NGOs without real stakes until policies materialize with real consequences.
