"Futurist" isn't an insult. It's a name I have for anyone who thinks newest is the best and tries hard to convince others to believe the same. They show up in public and online and deride anyone who dares prefer the older stuff. I can't find a more appropriate name for the behavior.

It's not something I would see as racist, denigrative, or insulting. They love 'future' tech and that name seems fitting.

If someone has a more fitting name for anyone who's into everything modern, 'the cloud' and flat UIs forever, newest is best and EVERYONE SHOULD BLINDLY BUY NEW NEW NEW then I'm open to suggestions.
