But so many of them will do the first step right in disengaging from social media...but then will only ever be able to make the next step be bragging about step one and trying to shame anyone and everyone who is exactly what they were not too long ago.
And one crazy effect I've seen is that it's no longer stratified by age.
I rarely get on Facebook anymore but lately when I do, it's full of people in their 50s and 60s, who are totally absorbed in that social media life and have their own strange cultural bubble among similar users, that I'm totally unable to relate to beyond observing it for what it is.
