A fuaxtist is an indivdual who pretends to be a full fledged artist despite the fact that their creativity is more of a hobby, not an occupation. Close association to fauxhemians, bobos and yipsters.
Rogers Park in Chicago is a neighborhood with many fauxtists who work 9-5 jobs, but claim to friends and family that they are in fact artist. Rarely make any art.

When a person claims to be on the autistic spectrum despite having no diagnosis, minimal or no tendencies and increasingly behaves as if they’re severely impaired in order to gain something; whether that be financial aid, sympathy, a following or excuses for poor behaviour. Usually adorned with badges, lanyards or car stickers proclaiming themselves as autistic, often self diagnosed from seeing other fauxtistics on social media, and typically make a huge dramatic announcement about their non existent or fraudulent autism diagnosis. As if they were coming out.
He claims to be on the spectrum and unable to tolerate strangers or loud noises under any circumstances, hence why he can’t go on any errands. But these pictures of him crowd surfing at a concert on Saturday suggest he is fauxtistic.
