I hate my generation

Can't recall the last time I overheard an intelligent conversation
its always subconsciously media infused commercials, like:
"I like Starbucks", "I prefer the whopper over the big mac"
and "Rihana's new single is amazing"
I don't care about your consumerist tendencies
I am not a retail corporation jotting notes on what my costumers like
talk about something intelligent for once, talk about what television has done to our society
talk about the illusion of free will and the systematic exploitation by lobbyists
talk about the monopolies and the trade unions that create them, the bottlenecks they create
and how we change it.

I think everyone feels that at some point. What we have to do to overcome is to initiate it ourselves. Get the ball rolling. Make it a more normal occurence. It's hard, but probably worth it in the long-run.
