Am I the only one thinking it's delusional to believe Mark Zuckerberg is some kind of spokesperson for Millennials? Is he a likable or even a liked figure among millennials?

It does seem to be the delusion of someone who considers themself to be a sort of philospher king. I am sure he really does believe that Meta really is on a mission to give "people the power to build community and bring the world closer together." You'd be hard pushed to argue however that their ecosystem of apps has had a net positive impact on the world given how much it's destabilised politics and mental health. Everyone seems to see it except for those at the heart of it.

I have to disagree. I remember that ten years ago I called my family once a month because it cost me money to call on another continent. Today I talk with them every day. I gained a friendship on Facebook. A lot of positive change makers met on these platforms. It's hard to measure that impact but we can't deny it.
