I realised how important attention was many years ago when we held a children's party in our garden. All children were equal until it came to food time then one child announced that she was vegetarian. Everyone became aware of that child and much running round was done to ensure she had vegetarian food to eat.
In the days following, one of our own children decided that she was also vegetarian. I believe that it was purely for the attention. She soon changed to a vegetarian who could eat chicken, then chicken and fish etc. She reverted to being an omnivore as soon as the novelty wore off.
The pretty ones always get attention. The less so need to find another way.

I think you nailed it.
Makes sense why the alphabet soup gang keeps adding more letters. Someone wants attention after the novelty off the previous letters wear off.
Hilarious and sad, and a case for periodically culling the weak. Be it war, famine or both.
Hey wait…
I think they have a shot for that now ...
It really might be the purpose of this entire charade.
Swap out vegetarian with trans and it is still the same story.
