Consumer Whore a Marketted Pseudo culture

Most people think they're not a consumer whore. Anyone loyal to a corporate band(the ones you see on MTV), looks at the brands when buying clothes, and spends what's popular in the market is a consumer whore.

Here's most people's favorites bands as an example in the picture below.

Viacom and their consumer whore bands

CDs are made for 5cents each and then sold for 20$ each. The bands are generated systematically based on statistics in a marketting attempt for maximum sales among the broadest age group in the range of 14-35. The people, the lyrics, and the story are ALL marketing coordination. "Welcome to the real world", MTV is a consumer whore station. Boasting about 4 seconds every frame, and playing the latest music their reality series are targetted to people who like to "relate" and list "shopping and hanging out with friends" as their main two hobbies. The new "reality shows" are nothing more than superficial relationship soap operas designed for their targetted audience to engross in.

Conclusion

People are retarded. Big surprise.
