i mean, for now we guess.
it was wild last night talking to the sharty folks, and seeing just the general consensus to zoomies on reddit.
I dont think Ive seen a more lost and hopeless lot. They grew up on an online already established by the big fagman with total conidiation. they found lurking youtube at young ages what things were like, but came to visit and found them nuked and hollowed out by moderators.
this completely rootless and homeless and cultureless group is growing up into a modern day sea peoples that will possibly collapse the electronic bronze age as we know it, and to be fair - who can blame them? we all bemoan the loss of 4chan, and yet do any of us want it back in its current state? And further, really - can it be brought back into a state that satisfies us? Is this even possible?
I dont believe it is. I think this thread and us here is proof we have our ritual mourning over a loss but a readiness to move on. For us older and more experienced, who were alive to see the golden years all collapse, for us this is survival.
For the zooms? Damn man, just hollowed husks and apocalyptic nothing in companies, in media, in tv, online. even in person.
This is an absolute zeitgeist were seeing and experiencing. This is much more important that a simple one liner shit post can convey.
