A lot of these people are boomers. Rushkoff is much younger and I think Gen X. Where are the Gen Y/Z versions? Are there more Gen Xers to check out?

Anyway, who are the next batch of these type of people? Are there websites/forums that follow them?

(This is another in a series of my “High Weirdness” kind of questions. )

    Not familiar with Rushkoff but the rest of those guys lived in a different world than the one we are in now. So their modern counterparts wouldn’t be doing similar things. People share info with each other more directly now, and there is not really hip consumerism any more. Also, print media is now as good as dead.

      Right, I would expect the form they take and the medium they use to (possibly) be different. For instance, and especially after Covid, using videoconferencing in addition to/instead of an in-person speaking circuit.
