I think people are overpromorphazing humans. What's does it mean for a human to "know" they are seeing "Halle Berry". Well it's just a single neuron being active.

It seems like people are giving attributes and powers to humans that just don't exist.
overpomorphization sounds slightly better than I used to say: "anthropomorphizing humans". The act of ascribing magical faculties that are reserved for imagined humans to real humans.
