I mean when the people faking a fake life can’t even have the decency to be live people isn’t it a little extreme? Why does America have an obsession with the fake and how can it be mitigated?

There is a perception that americans tend to play a part. If you come from texas odds are you will wear a stetson, cheer leaders wear the work out kit all the time. If you are a christian they can be aggresively christian. An old boss of mine met an american christian whose first interaction with him was while shaking his hand to say "are you sharp for the lord?" so americans are seen as tending to be more shallow, or as one french girl friend I had said when some brash tourists went by, (as we drank wine outside a cafe in Paris) "America is a nation of children"
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
