I dont get how that one made the list either. As an American, I feel that brand on me whenever I shop and I know my money feeds the machines of giant corporations that want nothing more than to consume me until I die. Even my existing and consuming is feeding those beasts that hurt those around me and destroy the world we live in.

Sure, a bit melodramatic and "I'm 14 and this is deep" but I'm not sure it's so innaccurate.

    No, don't accept that "you're only 14" bullshit. I was fed that garbage and wondered when I would magically understand that the shite state of affairs in our bleak modern "culture" in the USA is OK. It's not ok, and I have never accepted it as inevitable, or "human nature", or any other justification for complacency I was given.

    Don't sell your ideals and hopes for a better world short because people that have given up tell you it's not possible.
