Soph is a 14-year-old YouTuber comedienne with over 800,000 followers and a proud exponent of Generation Z (the cohort born after 2000). She is the latest target of the Millennials who run BuzzFeed, who’ve been working feverishly to get her de-platformed her over her unfiltered, salty language.
If they succeed, there will be no love lost between her and those who she calls the “Technological elite, aka the sociopathic 30-somethings that reside in the entrails of Silicon Valley.”
She explains the generation gap thus: “Millennials grew up with MTV and nowadays watch Colbert. We, on the other hand, grew up with the Internet, so we have no centralized source of information that controls what we think. We filter out the truth for ourselves; we’re not lazy. No one is brainwashing kids. Kids are simply learning from having free access to information, and there’s nothing you can do about it.”
There may be hope for humanity in the long term but at the rate things have been going in recent weeks, the BuzzFeed Commissars could succeed in their task at any moment – so get a load of Soph’s completely unchained riffs while you still can!
