and the fact that youth is basically never an indicator of "savvy"

In the area of computers, particularly things related to computers that appeared relatively recently and which youths are more inclined to use, it often is such an indicator.

Putting internet sales on par with a revolutionary movement spanning several countries?

You're making a strawman. Internet mobilisers for the Arab Spring weren't all George Washingtons. There are countless others who helped in whatever small way they could that was neither trivial nor grandiose at an individual level, as you're implying with DK.

but your track record so far on LessWrong shows that you barely manage to break even with your karma, and that you lack the level of self-awareness of a socially well-adapted person.

I post on LessWrong that which I won't post elsewhere. It's not that I'm exceptionally deviant, it's more that I can compartmentalise all that odd thinking in one place, here, as a testing ground. That which makes it into the realm of the world I wholeheartedly accept, and those that make it to bank of things I'll signal is far more restrictive and mainstream.

I don't mean for this to be a pointless ad hominem attack

It doesn't seem ad hominem at all. It's an insightful analysis which I appreciate.

prompter that you need to get out of your own head and think more clearly about matters involving yourself, or how you come off as.

Well the whole point of the thread is to do that. That's why I posted it.

The fact that self-promoters, salesmen, and slacktivists on FB tend to piss off people more than anything else, and the fact that youth is basically never an indicator of "savvy" are two things that should be obvious to everyone who has even a modicum of experience with the internet or life in general.

I don't agree with that generalisation. I suspect you're just projecting your own feelings about those categories of people. Feel free to update me with a more generalisable fact that you can back up with evidence I'll have reason to believe is transportable to my facebook audience, while noting how you found that evidence (i.e. don't search for 'facebook sales people piss people of', search for 'facebook sales peoples attitudes'.

... Just out of curiosity, how old are you?

See before you weren't ad hominin, but I suspect now you're going to stereotype, discriminate or vilify me based on my answer or whatever you expect it to be.

How would you like it if I asked you at the end of highly critical post:

....Just out of curiosity, are you homosexual?

...Just out of curiosity, do you even lift?
