Jeez, that was good. In my professional work I have long bemoaned the disappearance of authenticity into artifice, driven by what you describe here. Your reference to "culling themselves" has inspired me to write a piece about this with an analogy to suicide, which I deal with daily.

I'll be sure to give proper attribution, of course, but you've hit on something I thought only a scant few of us in the mental health world were noticing, which is the overall bunting of human experience.

Thank you.
