90s: stay anonymous, be careful with strangers, don’t give up any more info than you have to. The internet can be a dangerous place. Also, supervise your kids and have them ask permission to go online.
2010s-2020s: livestream your life 24/7, use real names and emails everywhere when signing up for bullshit, hand your kid a phone and let them go buck wild as well.
How did we stray like this?
It’s also ironic that the same generation of parents telling us to be careful online and “don’t believe everything you see on TV” are the same ones that get their news from grifter pundits and divisive facebook memes generated by Russian bot farms.
It’s remarkable isn’t it? Now we’re the ones telling our parents to turn off the TV and get off the internet or it’ll rot their brains.
growing up these days includes realizing your parents are shameful hypocrites who are knowingly destroying the world
The funny thing is that you probably think you get news legitimately.
But the truth is that it’s all propaganda. The only difference between CNN and Fox, or reddit/Twitter/Facebook, is the angle.
But it’s all bullshit.
‘News’ doesn’t exist anymore, instead of just giving the facts, every article tries to tell you what you should think.
Oh, is this the fabled “bOtH sIdEs” argument?
There’s no ‘both sides’ it’s all ‘media’ and they all really really suck
That’s… the both sides argument.
It is decidedly proven that Fox N*ws is much less factual than any other source of news.
Even they themselves said in court that Fox N*ws is an opinion piece and no reasonable viewer would take them seriously.
So don’t compare actual news groups to something like Fox N*ws. They shouldn’t even be allowed to have the word “news” in their name.
You’re dreaming, friend
If you think somehow CNN or MSNBC or whatever is more factual you really should take a step back and have a real close look at the media. Just as anyone who thinks Fox News is ‘news’
They’re all just two sides of the same fucking coin
Boomers love to give advice and they hate to follow it—even their own!
I still sign up for websites with the following credentials:
Joe Blow 6969 Penetration Ave Beverly Hills, California 90210
I usually use the email “[email protected]”
People got mad when they didn’t know who insulted them online
governments and politicians got their hands on it
I miss the 90’s, a better time for sure.
Feels quite dystopian at the moment.
