Ask any person above the age of, say, 40 (I’m not looking this up, but in Western countries that should suffice to qualify for ‘most’ pople) what an app is, exactly. I wonder what the response will be.
40 is ridiculous. I'm 49. Our generation essentially invented the internet, cell phones, etc. you may have been born to the darkness but we created it.
Idk, but I think you'd have to go a lot higher have that. Like, your parents know what an app is. Maybe your grandparents don't, but mine do. So I think it would basically have to be like people over 70 or something
So you're saying, when Trump says "most people" he means "me " but has to make it sound like he's not alone in any thinking ?
100% of the time he means himself but not for that reason.
he does this because he hasn't developed theory of mind. because he doesn't care about other people enough to do that.
Yes exactly. When he says "people," e.g. "people are saying, everyone says, etc" or "you" or whatever, he means him. Additionally most accusations are admissions. People are eating cats? He's probably eating cats. People are committing sex crimes? He's committing sex crimes. People don't know what an app is? He doesn't know what an app is, etc.
a 40 year old is a kid in 2000. their formative years were spent on the Internet.
Lolol above 40? Look up when the first iPhone came out.
I think your comment says more about how young you are than how out of touch "old" people are.
Lol, 40 years old elder here. Last year, my college mandated me to create a new course on how to use a computer because most of our new students can't figure out how to install a plugin. The young generation is way less tech-savvy than they think they are, trust me on this.
Yes, those who grew up with smartphones are lost, too.
