And I'm not going to give any examples either.
Just a broad, generalized statement.

Nothing... for now. Just live my life I suppose. Clean shit up where appropriate, try to be nice to people that deserve it.
Let's just say I can't wait for the shit to hit the fan.

The shit is hitting the fan as we speak. It's just so much shit that the fan is seizing the fuck up!

Not true! We must take more of a stand and stop being apathetic. We aren't looking for poetic sympathy towards the destruction of the planet! We have to turn this shit around!

This is only the tip of the iceberg. When the majority of the shit hits the fan, the economy will collapse, world governments with it.

In: -Britney Spears coverage on FOX and CNN -Presidential candidates' empty rhetoric. "I am for change." "It's time for a real leader." "What we need is a vision for the future!" -Binge drinking -McDonald's -Golf and NASCAR
Out: -MDMA, LSD, and psilocybin -Genuine conversation -Being right here, right now -Spending time outside of our various cubes -Romantic relationships based on unconditional love
-------------------- “Strengthened by contemplation and study, I will not fear my passions like a coward. My body I will give to pleasures, to diversions that I’ve dreamed of, to the most daring erotic desires, to the lustful impulses of my blood, without any fear at all, for whenever I will— and I will have the will, strengthened as I’ll be with contemplation and study— at the crucial moments I’ll recover my spirit as was before: ascetic.”

While I'm with you on that, in spirit. I ask, what can we do? I mean, you could pour gasoline all over yourself and light yourself on fire in the middle of a crowded square.. that sure makes a statement. But then you're just a crispy fried critter.
I'm more of one for demanding our human rights back from the powers that be that stole them from us in the first place. But I tried that before and half the people I thought were with me didn't want to give up their quality of life or get into trouble, and the other half thought it was just fine as it was anyway and we have it better than most people. So I sent an angry letter to the president and my senators but I guess I was the only one because they sent feds to my door to threaten me and tell me to chill out.

You have individual power so don't sell yourself short!

Read my edited second paragraph. Our power is in numbers.
Single people CAN make a difference, but they usually get shot in the face.

Tim Leary was full of shit... complete nonsense.
But in any case, if you don't like it here, move  It's up to you to change the things you don't like. Honestly, who cares that people wrap themselves up in britney spears, MTV and such. YOU can live your life how YOU want.
