I took it more as the strange pointlessness of the children of the global elite. They have enough to survive, be hip, hang out, but no motivation to do anything with it. It’s the modern problem of the wealthy’s progeny — but unlike the 1800s there is no social structure for them to fit into. They want to be “normal” but don’t need to do the work or be a part of the normal working/family world. So they are adrift in places like Brooklyn.
