    I never understood how people like this got that title. They don’t influence shit, except maybe consumerism and the dumbing down of society.

      it’s actually already a sales term in ABM - you have the decision maker, blocker, influencer, end user/stakeholder etc

      the term has been around longer than the internet

      They pander to the less informed, shove confirmation bias into everything, and pretend to sound like an 'expert" on what they spew. Basically a con artist. And they really want to be famous, but have zero talent. Again, con artist.
