That's it.
You raise a whole generation with social network interactions squeezed in 140 characters, videos squeezed in 30 seconds, short stories that disappear after a few hours, songs that start directly with the main hook so people won't skip them after 10 seconds of streaming, and this is what you get.
Every single product made by every single business in the past 10 years has rewarded short attention span, low-quality interactions, scroll-and-move-on behaviour, immediate over delayed rewards, and this is what you get.
A completely fucked up, self-entitled and spoiled generation with the attention span of a goldfish who dares to say that a song should never be longer than a TikTok video.
Fuck you, shallow Gen-Z.
