These editorials all have a common fault which is that they fail the sniff test of “would you actually do this”. I don’t know if you would call it classism, or an attempt at manipulation, or what, it’s just weird.

It’s like - okay, I’ll have a wife and kids, go fishing with the boys, a house with a garden, a car, will fly on holidays etc, but “we” (real meaning: you) should use all of these weird technological bad substitutes.

The literal embodiment of the “eat bugs and be happy” meme.
