people always react like this...
fine... be that way.
enjoy the overabundance of transmitted radio/micro waves that fry our cells and atmosphere of carbon monoxide, and join the thousands who wonder how someone as healthy as them got cancer...

but i digress....
companies want your ass!!! your loyalty to their products earns them sponsership, endorsement, power!!!!
and everytime someone says i'm crazy another coke-sniffing executive gets his wings.

Next time they arrange a moon landing, the more-than-one light source will be sponsored by GE and the absence of lunar dust on the landing pads will be courtesy of Swiffer. The usual lack of Van Allen belt radiation will be funded by Johnson & Johnson, and the coverage of astronauts in earth orbit will be paid for by the film Apollo 13.

No ones ever going to fight back, EVER. "Imagine a boot stomping down on a face forever" or whatever it was the man said.

Only because I like to keep my future earnings intact.
But it's the truth, though I don't think it's at the extremes that barend takes it, but the truth nonetheless. It's basic marketing nowadays that's taught in even highschool classes: A person buying your product, if satisfied will buy your product again, creating a constant stream funding and profit.
Now this was based on businesses, having creating a good quallity product will get paid off by satisfying the customer. But nowadays it has just turned into shoddy products that have a shorter lifespan that need to get replaced more often, invasive adverts aimed to wards children to build product loyalty, and deception rampant with viral marketing (that is a company paying someone to act all chummy to you and have him artificially give you word of mouth). It is getting bad but the corporations arn't rampant world-eaters. They're more like drug dealers, the archetypal entrepreneur, taken to a massive scale.
Truth. While it won't bring down The Man it'll at least save your own soul.
As an on topic note. I would want space to be put in control of space and the such. In conparison to how intersteller government and life would work I'd much rather perfer to be slaves to consumerism than be put slave to religious unity (a la Warhammer 40K), government ironfist...ed-ness, or be stuck in a collective hivemind.

And that's the problem. Culture is an industry designed to keep us reliant on itself. It's grinding individuality and free expression into dust in favor of a homologous human herd with the power-hungry world leaders as its shepherd, while distracting us with itself so we can't see it for what it really is.
It's in reality probably worse than Barend says, and the hopelessness to fight against it is another myth perpetuated by a delusional public opinion that was crafted by the system with its own immortality in mind. The only reason we can't fix things is because we're constantly bombarded with messages that there's nothing wrong with what's happening, and that we're in the minority to not embrace it, and that there is no better way of life, that humanity isn't good enough to hold up under any other social and economic system.
Yelling "NOW TESTIFY!" isn't going to do anything at the moment, especially since the majority of people are so alienated from one another that true solidarity is nearly impossible and in fact discouraged - self interests are praised above all -, and we'd need a critical mass of the sleepy masses to get them off of the couch, turn off their televison sets, and start seeing enough and caring about it to make some noise. I can't offer much hope except to say that we need to tread water and not get sucked under or pulled through the machine until the leverage exists to do something about it.

the consumerist companies of today are the religions of tommorow.
and the religions of today arte the companies of tommow, today.
trust me.
a bakery was selling hot cross buns, but labeling them seasonal buns to avoid offending no christians, in another act of politically correct ignorance, which i found histerical as hot cross buns are from a pagan festival accredited to the godess of fertility, the small cross being her symbol and eggs and rabits being obvious symbols of fertility. the catholic church moved easter to coincide with this pagen festival to grow their numbers with the heathen folk... how funny it is that that a bakery some 2000 years later relables these pagan pasteries to avoid affending non christians...
this is how society evolves... it all a big colossol perpetuating fuck up that everyone falls in line for...
waiting to be moed down by the snowballing effect...
every now and again i can't help but yell; "GET OUT OF THE WAY YOU IDIOTS!"
even though they don't really deserve my help...
but our civilisation is already based on slavery, it used to be with whips and chains and now its with petrol and credit cards and terible entertainment...
but everys trained to think the way they do and taught to accuse people who think outside the defined borders dictated to us, are the ones trained to think the way we do out of malcontent loonies...
