Welcome to the Future Nauseous (2012)

A quite insightful essay.

Call me a sociopath, but while reading it I was - and still am - asking myself, how do I get to exit the Manufactured Normalcy Field? Because I don't want to stay in it. And after that, I started asking myself, how can we collapse the Field and shut it down altogether?

Also a potentially interesting insight to how my perspective, as a tech native, differs from general population: "We understand Facebook in terms of school year-books." Now do we? Do people really use this metaphor in their thinking, instead of understanding Facebook as it is, as a new kind of thing? Do people really shoehorn new technology into old categories instead of defining things by the collection of features and experiences they have?
