Never before has the cool industry been so dreadfully plastic and awful. All these egotistical, insincere loudmouths battling for some glow in the limelight... and now the politicians want to be entertainers too with their he-said / she-said scandals!! But there was a time when cool wasn't a manufactured product. A subculture of young thinkers, who dream the impossible into existence. To think that John Lennon was still alive thirty some years ago.. now all you hear is Bieber this, GAGA that! Where is the main man, that boss that will fire everyone that dreadfully sucks at their job?? Where is this person? Please fire all the people that control the radio and ensure nothing original ever makes the cut, please fire everyone in government and all these political hacks turned "scandal-entertainers" that answer to no one. Fire everyone in the FEDERAL RESERVE, fire the person who first started making amendments to the first amendment. Fire the guy who drafted the rules of engagement, and the first dairy-free ice cream dessert.
When you hear people talk of the "original cool" it insinuates that there is nothing original about the modern day manufactured counterpart. Like what the cover of Nirvana's Nevermind depicts, "cool" has been privatized and is now only attainable for your children with some shoddy materials manufactured in China, for a bloated price. Your beloveds from an early age will be taught to worship the new manufactured version of cool on TV, and how to follow it's perpetually changing store front mannequin. Is there still room for young individuals with real thoughts in this environment today? A mental space un-phased by mental tranquilization, and corporate influence when it starts from such a goddamn young impressionable age? At what point was it decided that the original cool was such a threat to the natural order of things? Are we still capable of being rational loving parents for our kind? Then why do we apathetically submit our most precious loved ones to the most mindless commercial prey, of our own sick machinations for capitalist profit? Why do we work so hard to raise our own, only to hand them over on a silver platter? Here they are! Do what you will with them!! Just make sure they earn six figures when your done with them !!!
One must ask.. are our children even ours anymore ??
