The zoomer left is infected with Web 2.0 like a zombie virus that makes them eat their own. They reason words like “capitalism,” “fascism,” “socialism” and “libertarianism” are matches to class-consciousness dynamite is that estrangement is the point of the engagement-optimized web and social media. Google isn’t search-optimization— it’s Balkanization optimization. It MUST contrive differentiation and make users believe it to fill up their intellectual real-estate—for the same reason Crest must invent twelve types of mint toothpaste to fill up shelf real-estate. Zoomers do not realize that words have lost organic meaning beyond being optimized for behavioral estrangement promoted by recommendation engines. They grow up in a lie that their individual agency is decisive movement-building speech when, in most cases, hysteria curation by techno-oligopolists ghost-writes their vocabulary. There are wonderful exceptions where leftist Web 2.0 coalition shines, but co-opting is the norm.

i'll break from you here, for 2 reasons - 1) not just zoomers, 2) not just the left. not by a longshot. i'm 36, and you can send my 70yo racist uncle into an anticommunist seizure by just saying "capitalism has flaws" (objectively true and not particularly inflamatory), but he'll sit around complaining about texas' power grid and how the greedy companies are fucking over americans. the zoomer left will have the same reaction if you say "communism has failed in the past" (also objectively true and not inflamatory), but it's not a phenomena specific to their upbringing. anyone who isn't formally educated on the terms isn't ready to hear them in healthy debate. you have a better discussion and you make more impact on your audience and you're more likely to find common ground if you dumb it down to "apes together strong".
