Brilliant Craig Ferguson Rant About Why Society Sucks
mr ferguson lets the mass marketers off way too easy.the relationship that marketers form with consumers at a very young age is carefully planned and executed.
please take the time to watch this excellent doc from adam curtis:
http://www.videosift.com/video/The-Century-of-the-Self-full-four-part-documentary
it's a pretty accurate account on how things have changed in the west's view of individuality and sense of self and how that sense has been manipulated by appealing to our "irrational" emotions.
knowledge by itself garners little but the act of aquiring.
knowledge in conjunction with experience,tempered with reason is wisdom.
saying that an older persons advice,thoughts or perceptions are no longer relevant due to their lack of understanding of all things "new"(translation:young)not only reveals a lack of historical comprehension,but is powerfully naive.
which is very much a "youthful" trait.

Are You a Debt Slave? - Naomi Wolf/ The Frank Factor
Along these same lines, I also recommend watching all four parts of Adam Curtis' fascinating BBC documentary, The Century of Self, about how propaganda has been used to control and manipulate mass social behavior.

The Century of the Self [full four part documentary]
One of my most favourite Adam Curtis films. Should be compulsory viewing.

The Century of the Self [full four part documentary]
Far and away my favourite series from Adam Curtis. Unlike so many anti-consumerism-rant-as-documentary films, Century of the Self lays bare the foundations of the consumer society.
