Spider Jerusalem's rant about Monoculture, from Warren Ellis' comic Transmetropolitan. Voicing done by my housemate Colin Janke, music is 'Medula Oblongata' by The Dust Brothers, and the animation and putting it all together is by me, as am assignment for my graphic design course.

  • i do not eat your fucking burger

  • Jolly good.

  • Uh... I think you've got the definition of Culture mixed up with Market...

  • mon·o·cul·ture

    1) The cultivation of a single crop on a farm or in a region or country.

    2) A single, homogeneous culture without diversity or dissension.

    The monoculture is a result of the market's blandness. Plus, it's a quote.

  • This makes sense, sure we have names, we look slightly different. But we all buy the same corporate shit, go to the same schools, go out and find the same shit jobs.

    for what? money? so we can buy more shit that won't matter after we're dead? so we can please people we may not even know in 10-20 years? and finally, to follow a religion to make ourselves feel better about not following our natural instincts and having something to "believe in".

    We as humans have got some "evolving" to do.

  • it's fun because it's true.

    seen this in a few places around the world.

    same stuff within a different setting.

    a little sad.

  • You don't see that in every country but in Britain it's extreme.

  • Nice,but not psychotic and angry enough.

  • I may not eat your burgers, I may not eat your fries, but I will DRINK...YOUR...MILKSHAKE I'LL DRINK IT UP!!!!

  • Transmetropolitan for the motherfuckin win.

  • I don't think you know what your talking about. And it's impossible to have an argument without facts to back it up.

  • I think it's true that you sound like a slave to your credit cards and your corporate household.

    Now you may be successful, and I'm not trying to say that your a bad person, because your not. What I'm saying is that does that make you happy? for some it does not, getting promoted is'nt a big enough change, I don't think you get the point of this video.

    but, like I said, if your happy living in ignorance than to each his own.

  • You really think that's true? I think if I work hard in school it will matter. I could start a company that could give a lot of people jobs. I could volunteer at my church or a old folks home centre and learn something. When you work at a company long enough, you can see yourself in it. You can see the work you have established and could influence other compagnies to do the same.

    If positive is a state of mind, then so is negative. Which one makes you feel good?

  • Being positive is a state of mind. Are you comfortable knowing that nothing any of us do will matter in 20-30-50 years?

    You can live in ignorance all you want but the fact is the world is mean, rude, and nasty. People can't face it though because they're too caught up in the latest advertisement showing off the latest clothes or ipods.

  • maybe that is better. we will all be equal. but the way people look, is when they ajust to the climate. So if someone is from africa, their skin will be a lot darker than someone from Canada.
