now, i aint seen the mooie, but it strikes me as just another lameass
attemtp to shit on corporate culture. now, i aint no big fan of
corporations, but like i said before, what's the US or world economy
without corporations? can hippie artisans make cars? can they make
toilet tissue enough for all of us to wipe our booties? i don't think
so.

now, corporations can abuse power, and they are powerful so they gotta
be watched. but, i can't stand kneejerk automatonic anti-corporatism.
it's pointless.

take 'fast food nation'. if any argument should be made against fast
food restaurant or any kind of restaurant, it is that animals must be
slaughtered in huge numbers to make our asses grow fat.
so, as long as 'fast food nation' isn't anti-burger but only
anti-corporate burger, it is mostly bullshit. whatever burger you
want, you're gonna have to kill alot of innocent cows to make our asses
grow fatter.

but, the mooie is not anti-burger or anti-killing of innocent animals.
rather, the movie says we can go on with our gluttonous piggery AS LONG
AS we do it the green, unionist way. never mind the poor cows. they
don't matter.

anyway, what kills me about this movie is it tries to blame
corporations for the bad attitude alot of kids working at fast food
places have. for example, we are told that kids spit in the food
because their wages aren't high enough or they aren't given health
coverage. what kind of crap is this?

decent kids don't spit in the food no matter their pay. and arseholes
do it just to do it. look at enron crooks. they had billions of bucks
and still acted like shit. they were just arseholes, pure and simple.

but, there are alot of low wage low skilled people who do their jobs
diligently and with care. they are good people. they are all around.

now, why do some kids do stuff like spitting into food? it has more to
do with slacker culture than with corporatism. slacker culture
encourages us to be lazy, whiney, nihilistic, apathetic, irresponsible,
and such. and, that kind of me-cool-but-dumb-but-i-dont-care attitude
is all around us thanks to the slacker culture that grew up around rock
music, drug abuse, youth culture, and other idiocies.
the reason why so many of these kids end up working in fast food joints
is cuz they never studied while they were in school. they just slacked
off and did drugs and listend to rock music and went to parties or
drank beer on weekends in some parking lot. i mean what do you expect
of such morons? they end up working in low wage low skill jobs. the
jobs didn't make them slackerish. their slackerish attitudes led them
to such deadend jobs.
it's not just in fast food joints. i've had to deal with such tards in
record shops and movie rental places. slackerish, lazy, stupid, tardy,
and so on. they are like the clods in 'high fidelity'.
now, i aint sayin they are evil. but they want to just have fun, be
lazy, and then be taken care of by their parents, government, and
corporations. their attitude is fuc* you school, fuc* you mom and dad,
fuc* you jobplace... but feed me, gimme medical coverage, gimme
shelter, gimme everything.

and, if linklater really wants to be courageous, he should take on this
stupid culture and attitude instead of pandering to them. but, in
'school of rock', we saw linklater just pandering and pandering to the
most negative, irresponsible, and stupid impulses. in that movie, jack
black played some guy who refused to grow up, and linklater would have
us believe that he's some kind of genuine hero. gimme a break. you
want someone like that to cook your burger? you think such clod would
do a decent job as a cook if you paid him better? no, such idiots
never wanna grow up. and, it's about time we say 'we must grow up, all
of us'.

the problem we have is fast food culture epitomized by mtv, hollywood,
and yes, even linklater and michael moore. indeed, moore has turned the
art of documentary into a fat greasy burger for stupid leftist tards
who refuse to grow up. and of course, che guevara is the latest and
hottest item on the leftist fast food cultural/political menu.

you know, i hear japanese kids at macdonalds don't get paid all that
well. but, i'll bet they don't go around spitting in the food. it's
the kind of kids we produce in our idiot slackerish lazyass culture.
