The REAL problem is I’m a child of boomers. I grew up in a boomer world. We could not be granular and picky about what we consumed due to limitless supply. Therefore, I speak and think broadly. I come from a past where this worked. Today’s youth speak bluntly to narrow the vertical of every concept they express instinctively. Web 2.0 forces them to. Being like me (less targeting in how I communicate) is the same as being silent to them, when it’s actually being *silenced.* They just don’t know there’s a difference. They never lived in a world where personalized content curation was not an act-of-speech by an invisible middleman with an agenda.

i think i’m also a child of boomers: i love that my intellectual curiosity roams wild and free, but struggle with the you-must-fit-into-a-certain-box algo constraints. this is one of the reasons why i enjoyed farcaster initially — the platform and its community were both interesting and interested in a vast array of topics. i would hate to be pigeon-holed. btw did you mean to quote cast me instead of reply? also hi, we’re glad you’re here :)

It was an intentional quote-cast. I rarely type replies that don’t seem to me like logical feed posts. I’m usually invoking meaning that needs no subordination to discursive context.
