Why? They're erasing the kids' futures, then boasting about doing so.

(Or close enough, from the kids' PoV.)

Yeah, is that it? I really am curious. Aren’t the youngsters supposed to be enthusiastic about new tech? It must be ant establishment sentiments then. Don’t get me wrong I do love seeing the passion of youth united against big tech, or perhaps, loss of control. But I don’t understand it atm.

Sadly the question in the title is not answered (satisfactory).

  • The first comment here answers it perfectly.

    • So they really feel their futures are erased by a technology? Or by Big Tech? I'd say rage against the system (machine), not the tech. Sure captilism as we have it is rigged, money makes money, success depends on which family you're born into (this is even happening in the most socialist countries). It's far from fair. But to blame a specific technology? Meh.
