I believe this is perhaps partly the result of a generational rift as I myself have grown up in a time where social media is the norm, narcissism is actively encouraged, and the standard photo is one of oneself called a fucking "selfie"
Whereas the generation most other siccness members grew up in followed message boards for topic and discussion rather than obsession over oneself.
This is linked into everything, even down to your generation buying albums and following artists, while my generation mostly never heard a full album before in their lives, they don't care about artists, they pick and choose which songs to illegally download focusing purely on their own interests as they are able to get it all their own way.
Although I actively try to avoid some of this conditioning by attempting to adopt cultural and behavioral aspects of a previous generation, I still unwillingly portray some undesirable characteristics of my generation which are ingrained into my personality.
