I don't know if there's a point to this but I can certainly relate.
Perhaps what has changed is the veneer. There is more meme-dropping in addition to garish status-boasting. The narrator mentions some interesting ideas but doesn't feel the need to impose himself. I laughed at the passing mention of spirituality without religion... It's hard to Do No Harm in the world that we have built.
Narcissocial media has also made people ready to assert things that are -- to be frank -- none of my interest or business.
I took it to be a bit of self-remonstration about lack of ambition or even interest in anything new.
I don't know about you, but when it seems that everyone else is meme-dropping and flaunting their exceptionalism (for which they are inevitably so croakingly thankful...), I chide myself momentarily for not being part of the scene.
But then I recall that narcissocial media is an empty barrel rolling down a monetised slope. ^_^
It’s a more subtle piece than it appears. I think you’re spot on.
It's fairly exhausting after a while.
