We live in a fake world. A fake society, fake culture, fake ideals, fake people, fake celebrities, fake music, everything is fake. Our generation is defined by autotune, spray tanning, and reality television. What's the running theme here? Fake. Does this suck? Yes, yes it does. The results of this are shitty music, shitty looking people, and shitty television.
Technology has lobotimized us. Facebook has isolated us and provides an arena for the fake. Twitter has reduced our thoughts to 140 characters or less. YouTube has made celebrity possible for anyone, making us all very, very stupid in the process.
I am an optimist though. If the 2000s were the years of the fake and stupid, I'm hoping the 2010's turn out to be the years where we defined ourselves as not morons.
Beavis and Butthead is back on TV and Ron Paul is surging in the polls. I believe.
I hope in 2012 we elect a president who will end the war on drugs, bring all of our troops home overseas, and cut 1 trillion dollars from budget in his first year of office. Two fake wars and fake money.
End the fake.
