Digital nativism
mistaken belief that young folks who were born immersed in things digital are somehow in a state of grace and older folks are cursed by their age and lack of digital conditioning. arrogant and insulting division of generations into different camps first proposed by marc prensky but unfounded on any survey data.
with an insulting tone worthy of the original american nativists who hated immigrants (especially catholic ones), marc prensky speaks of pre-ipod humans (digital immigrants) contemptuously. this is simply digital nativism, a kind of generational prejudice that is ill founded and unsubstantiated.
