Fakelore refers to invent folklore, but in a way that presumes that inventing folklore is somehow unusual or spurious. Makelore is the same idea, but understands that all folklore is invented and serves a social cultural purpose and created.

Makelore is incredibly important to memory and story and we should build our own personal and shared makelore in order to remember the stories that tell us who we are and who we want to be.
