I think if you told him his ideas were underdeveloped in the essay, though, he'd probably reespond with an already-thought-through set of ideas about how consumerism, diversity, and distraction all tie together--and he'd also tell you that he didn't develop them more thoroughly in the article because he just assumed his audience would understand those relationships, perhaps through intuition or experience or (I think more likely) the ambient absorption of thinkpiece boilerplate.

LOL at "Marx must have had something to say about this."--this in the middle of his complains about GH and the internet fostering pseudo-mastery.
