That’s odd, because your own reply explains why this is different (the weaponisation / manipulation). The technology is qualitatively different or “generational.” Growing up with it has given this generation a different experience and different behaviours.
- inopinatus 5y agoI never said it was different. Quite the opposite. I said that the behaviour is the same. The technology it attaches to is different, that’s all. Making a dispositional inference at all is the error. Or more bluntly, every generation complains about the next one, but most old farts don’t realise they’ve sleepwalked into the cliché.
