Well, you live in an affluent era where all your bartenders and service types are MIT dropouts, so yeah, they're probably smarter than your average bear. Though, maybe to your finer point... many of them are not using the "look at me" special media. They're using snapchat, the dating apps, the more private of the "socials." But make no mistake, theres still a great deal of their real lives happening online.
All that aside, back to the original thesis: Twitter is a dinosaur in the path of an asteroid and Elon Musk is a chode.
