I always see people using those ‘God Bless America’ eagle graphics ironically so I thought:

oh man, what if Canadians were equally as loud and overzealous with that sort of blind patriotism

what would our obnoxious graphic representation look like

AAAAAAAAAA

LITTLE TIMMY: Grandpa, what was 2010 like?

GRANDPA NED: Protestors held diet cokes in one hand with an ironic poster in the other while other people took pictures of it to show that they, themselves, were in and of the moment - however, in standing outside the moment to admire it and document it they removed themselves from the moment entirely. It’s pretty indicative of our culture as a whole. Like some dystopian Orwell novel, the disenfranchised have become the franchised and the subculture has lost any and all of its meaning. People said ‘hipster’ as if it were an insult - not as so much because of the fashion - because EVERYONE dresses like an idiot when they’re young - but because it stood for the culture as a whole. A large swath of people too busy looking in the mirror to actually get anything done - too self aware to make any real change - and an almost point blank denial that they and their actions were an integral part of the problem. But that goes for pretty much everybody. ‘Hipster’ as a ‘word’ just got thrown under the bus. Thats what happens when you franchise the disenfranchised. You buy them out. By marketing directly TO them and their self awareness, you take away any legitimate social power that they might have had. Sort of like the hippies. Actually, it’s almost EXACTLY like the hippies. “We didn’t sell out, we bought in”. As long as we can laugh about it and call it a meme or do it in any ironic form it’s OK, right? Wrong. Irony is dead. And our generation is too busy looking at the moment from an ever increasing ironic distance to ever actually be a part of anything. You know URBN Outfitters is owned by a Texas oil magnate, right? You know all that money goes to anti abortion campaigns? It’s totally fucking indicative of the cycle at large. I’m not saying everyone should fuck off and move to Portland and live on a farm but why the fuck don’t people care? Why? Because we sold the farm to pay for the milk. Its fucking depressing. Nobody gets anything done because nobody wants to rock the boat.

GRANPA NED: (to self) This is why I don’t talk to anybody else at the retirement home.
