The adbuster team rocks. I'm a fan. And if you are into consumerism commentary and sarcasm, I like the youtube channel "StillUsing". They're looking for other users who, instead of buying the latest technology, are happy to keep using older ones, for the lousy (uh, not!) reason that they still work.

They're hoping for some real finds: typewriter, tape recorder, etc.

I like the message. I just think it is a little to much like a scare tactic and over the top. I don't think this would convert many. Kind of like how fire and brimstone preachers turn people off.

From the beginning of our life in the US we are condtioned to consume. We are taught very little about the effects of this consumption. People need to become better educated about this consumer based system. When sickness enriches people there is something terribly wrong!

[EO6131]

This was eye opening and all facts !!! I hated when the CNN chick was like "Oh come on environmental problems" Uhh duhh dumb ass !!

[primenemisis]

@EO6131 shes obviously still connected to the matrix

[BurnsideStudios08]

The woman in CNN is a typical American. Confused and an idiot

[CortexFilms]

Well it is very well possible that she is interviewing with in a Advocate of the devil style.

To make sure the person she is interviewing keeps reacting with passion

@BurnsideStudios08 you are really wrong...she is not an idiot she is just a puppet. You can see that she is not being neutral. Corporation machine obviously payed her to refutate every argument made by this man.

@BurnsideStudios08 Some people are born in to cults and never knew.

[TheCaptainLulz]

@BurnsideStudios08 and the typical adbuster consumer is a pretentious cunt like you.

@BurnsideStudios08

I assume you get your idea of Americans from some news source, which no real American actually listens to.

[Xakryn]

Good video. But its amazing the number of ad's that are in it. Lol. Kinda strange, but I understand the artistic side of it.

[BurnsideStudios08]

Irony

[mizscience]

The clip starting at 3:45 is the best one.

We are pigs we feed off each other and our planet.

We don't need half what we have.

The corporations don't support us why should we support them.
