I think that true revolution is the one within ourselves when we stop being corporate consumer whores and only eat lettuce.

Ok never mind, I got the American Eagle, i thought it was funny. But anyway, when did the idea of ripped jeans become "cool"? I mean, if they get ripped on there own or if you rip them yourself, nope its not cool. You have to pay 120 dollars for them to be pre ripped.

LONG LIVE JEANS IN ONE PIECE!!

I like consuming products. Especially brand sneakers.

I was hanging out with some (totally rad, antifa) skinheads last time I was in Calgary.
I went shopping with them and they bought some like, $60 Ben Sherman shirts . . .

. . . then shoplifted some, like, $8 pain meds.

IDEOLOGY IS WEIRD.

Don't you know? In socialism, we'll all live in mansions and own Ferrari's.

Make mine an Aston Martin. I guess brand names and garbage like that doesn’t really matter. I mean, the system that produces and markets that stuff is the real problem along with the mass desire which is created like a spell by the advertisers. I do like brand name liquor over generic stuff tho, guess I'm part of the problem too.:rolleyes:

Brand names themselves dont matter themslevs, but come now, dont tell me that an Aston Martin is just like a Ford with a different label making it more expensive. Or that the Sainburys Basic Vodka i have to drink doesnt taste like ethanol.

That's because generic booze tastes like paintstripper.

This. There is a genuine difference between products, although not as much as you may have been lead to believe.
