Last week, the internet exploded after a small Nantucket shop posted a simple sign reading "No Influencers." What started as a local controversy quickly became a national debate about influencer culture, old money, quiet luxury, class, authenticity, and the future of social media.

In this bonus episode of Power User, I'm joined by freelance reporter Andrea Domanick, co-host of The Culture Journalist podcast and newsletter, to unpack the most cursed discourse of the summer. We get into why this fight is not actually about one sign or one influencer, and who gets to define status, taste, and authenticity in America's most exclusive spaces.

We explore:

  • The Four Winds Craft Guild controversy

  • Paige Lorenz and Dairy Boy

  • Quiet luxury and the old money aesthetic

  • The rise of influencer culture

  • Why "influencer" has become a loaded word

  • The history of influencer bans

  • Social media, class, and cultural capital

  • Why privacy has become the ultimate luxury
