Reality T.V. has led to an acceptable "Jerry Springer" like train wreck that as a culture, we apparently accept like a kid accepts candy even though they're diabetic.
As a child I watched as the 60's brought awareness, experimentation and revolution. By the late 70's the punk rock movement reminded us that things were not right and if we weren't careful we'd wake up prisoners. Little did we realize, the 80's would wage a classist war on our psyche, programming in the notion that we must have the appropriate material possessions to be socially acceptable. Most importantly, credit cards will help you get there! Mouse gets the cheese and BOOM the box is lowered!
The 90's brought us the grunge movement a direct answer to the bulimic Reaganomics. It screamed of intellectual starvation, it begged for organic earth-grown substance! Mass suicide, we gave up all hope and while we were weak and burying our sorrows in wine, we were assaulted and taken hostage. Held in a cell, like a scene out of a vintage sci-fi movie...media streaming in every direction, the lies it needs you to believe...about yourself, about the world but it is all a lie. And the "lie" is this: This is NOT acceptable! This is NOT how the Creator intended us to live....THIS is a man-made capitalistic prison and the corporate industrial and military complex has us brainwashed with the help of the media, into believing that THIS is the American Dream? This is no dream and it is not American, more like Draconian Nightmare...Resist!
