Debunking the Story of Stuff

Watch it for amusement. It's a decent laugh. My favorite part? Where the most toxic food is actually breast milk. But hey, it's still "best".



Did you miss the part where she explains government's role is to take care of us? Really? I didn't read that in the Constitution.

So, this is what I get from this video:
- America is the Devil.
- People gave up their futures so she could have a $4.99 radio.
- Consumers are also the Devil, so there's more than one.
- Factory workers are pathetic.
- Being poor is awesome.
- Corporations are the other Devil, the one not America or Consumers.
- Recycling is great, but what we really need to do is kill ourselves. And save the planet.
- Prosperity is the Devil.
- Stick figures aren't always cute.

If you survived the video, which is an insanity circus on display, here's the video in four parts that debunks the ridiculousness and gross misrepresentation of facts.

Oh, forgot to tell you, "The Story of Stuff" propaganda video is shown to children in the US and scaring the bageezes out of them. If your child has seen this video, you might show them the debunking videos so they'll want to play with Legos again.

PS Glenn Beck's book, "Arguing with Idiots," hit bookstores today.









I remember when school meant learning about our American history, proper English, basic algebra, and not eight hours of socialist propaganda. No wonder so many people are distressed.
Want to be happier? Getting rid of the "Story of Stuff" video would be a good start.

I've always been of the opinion stick figures should remain static objects. Moving around like that is very scary. . .all that shaking and wobblin.'

They are shakin' and wobblin' right? I hope my eyes are poisoned from the the evil vile factories around here.
