There's a really obvious psyop that I never see anyone talking about. Faces in thumbnails and pfp's.

I truly do not think anyone cares to see your face. Randos on the internet don't know you and don't love you, and never will, and seeing your face won't change that. In fact, seeing faces on a video thumbnail actually repels me - it tells me the person has an ego, and that ego will pollute the value in the video.

Who does your face serve, in these situations? Not you. It can hurt you. The world we live in violates our privacy at every possible moment. You never know what camera may be catching your face, and who might be interested.

Influencers think their face gets clicks. They're wrong. They have no way of knowing if the view numbers reported are correct. The simple truth is, the state wants to know who you are if you have influence. But if you give it to them, you give away your power, and you prove you're not a serious person. Idk if xyz random internet psyop theory is really a psyop ; but I know THAT is.
