Yeah, but then again, we didn’t all have little computer/TVs in our pockets that could give us directions when we’re lost, so there’s pluses and minuses.
That’s the ideal. The problem is there is so much disinformation and poor information that finding reliable accurate information is more difficult and requires effort that the majority don’t make.
Having the world’s information at your fingertips is great, but having people actively trying to dilute or distort it is not.
I literally can’t, I wasn’t alive, wasn’t for 9/11, or columbine either.
If anyone ever wonders why Gen Z is the way it is, that’s why, those events and more (hehe climate change) have plagued our lives since birth.
They’ve plagued the lives of Millennials, too, just more directly. Even old Millennials were still children when Google was first created.
Gen Z is what you get when people grow up with the ubiquity of the internet and a bleak outlook. It’s a recipe for people who know how to mobilize, and I’m here for it.
I can’t believe I didn’t mention how important the internet and 21st century technology is to Gen Z. While it certainly has its harms, it’s been vital for the spread of information, and we kind of just grew up using it daily like most, but since almost birth.
Just to epitomize that, I learned the windows shortcuts (control c, control v, etc) before I learned how to tie my shoes or ride a bike and I had classes that taught Java coding in junior high.
Gen Z is what you get when people grow up with the ubiquity of the internet and a bleak outlook.
Only Gen Z that’s hyper involved in certain forms of politics(and you’d find people of any generation are pessimistic when they’re involved in those same forms) like most Gen Z on here. I’m Gen Z, and of course so are most of my friends- we’re pretty optimistic. But, I guess, generalizations based on generation have always been pretty meaningless.
Imagine a world without Apple, Facebook and Google!!

Tiny screens that can access almost the totality of human knowledge and creativity.

That and Trump speeches, but still…
Also SO MANY TITS
We had that before smartphones
While also tracking everything you do.
I would change the word “almost” to “some of”
It would have happened without them.
Yeah, and those companies would turn out just like them.
