milennials turned the net away from anonymity though-- they are the ones who fattened facebook, and the old people followed them. even moot eventually showed his face & name. this as he went on ted to champion anonimity (oh the irony). all of reality happens on twatter now.

but the currents always return-- it's not like forces & ideologies ever go away completely. e.g. "punk" was a boomer minority creation in opposition to rockstars, but became a mainstream thing with genxers. then we had avril lavigne. currents ebb & flow.

i know this sounds like a pathetic consolation prize, but there is some satisfaction in identifying & following some of those currents as they attract your personal interest. maybe some of those currents look big now but will turn to nothing. maybe some look insignificant now & will be huge in the future. it's a bit like the stock market.
