I just don't get parasocial relationships.

Do people honestly convince themselves some stranger performing on the internet in a very one way relationship somehow truly cares about them and not their ability to monetize.

I think it's a case of the conscious mind knowingly tricking the subconscious mind. Because doing so feels good. Compare with artificial sweeteners.
