> As a result of this history and success, there is a certain sense in which Mark Zuckerberg has been cast as the spokesman for the Millennial generation — as the single person who gives voice to the hopes and fears and the unique experiences of this generation

LOL I'm just a bit older than "Millenials" but I don't know anyone in that age range who thinks Mark Zuckerberg, of all people, has the lived experience, and the same shared hopes, dreams, struggles, and fears of that generation at large, to the point where he can speak for that generation. I haven't even gotten through 1/4 of the article and Thiel seems so lost and out of touch.

EDIT: This is why you should read the whole article before posting. Right after that part, Thiel admits that Zucc is actually not that representative of his generation. Pulled the trigger too soon on this one!
