I'm just always left wondering, all this effort that so many young people pour into building their social media influence.. What does society get out of that in the end?
It feels like "not much" on a good day (and a lot of social debt on a bad day)..
And maybe this is just me becoming an old man (I'm in my early 40s), but it seems like a waste of a generation's energy and inspiration..
- jedberg 8y agoI too am in my 40s. But you could say the same thing about us 80s kids and our obsession with video games. Back then adults were asking "what does society get from a generation that plays video games all day?" They even made comics with jokes like "make $250,000 a year playing video games!!". And guess what? There are people now that make a lot more money than that playing video games, and a bunch of people our age who get a ton of money a year to make those games. So who knows, maybe it will show it's value later. Besides, society has had famous people for quite a long time, so there must be some value in it.
