“man-boys,” which was not nice, I know, but it was true for these people who felt half-formed and opaque to me with no discernible edge or interesting bits. Worst of all, they were different in ways that made no difference.

In contrast to the shark babies who tried to feign cuddly, Zuckerberg openly craved power and historical significance from the get-go.
