Competitive Insincerity

is a game played by people who don't know themselves
where they assume an acceptance by other people
on the basis that that other folks don't know who they are, either.

Since it is a competition there has to be a winner
and that winner is the person who knows themselves least
who can become the most popular by the process
least recognized as being intended for that purpose.

The one rule this game relies upon
is that nobody mentions four things
Sex, Money, Religion, or Politics,
all of which-for not being mentioned-
are the divisions by which the game works.
