Your takes on the nature of actors are spot on, it's good to see that other people out there understand this. Professional liars, whose job it is to make you believe they are a different person, in a different place/time, doing a different thing, displaying an emotion evoked by an event that's not actually happening- this is what all actors do. They're extremely conscious of themselves at all times, at the "highest of levels" like these assholes.
You think a lot of actors might be psychopaths or sociopaths? I think so; I think the job attracts narcissists and other personality types that tend to be... fucking crazy, basically. They say a lot of CEOs and top politicians are psychopaths, and they are only able to get where they are because they are willing to step over the bodies of other people and do things that normal people would feel wrong doing. So why wouldn't this apply to a significant amount of the top "celebrity personalities" that are shoved in our fucking faces all the time? We already know actresses will do anything, and there's a lot of strange and disturbing shit about male actors getting into some kind faggotry in exchange for a push in their career (like Arnold Schwarzenegger).
