Great Depression 經(jīng)濟(jì)大蕭條
獨(dú)白原文:
Advertising has its taste in cars and clothes. Working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don’t need. We’re the middle children of history. No purpose or place. We have no great war, no great depression. Our great war’s a spiritual war. Our great depression is our lives. We’ve all been raised on television to believe that one day we’d all be millionaires and movie gods and rock stars. But we won’t. We’re slowly learning that fact. And we’re very, very pissed off.
廣告誘惑我們買車子,買衣服,于是我們干不喜歡的工作買不需要的東西。我們是被歷史遺忘的一代,沒(méi)有目的,沒(méi)有歸宿,我們沒(méi)有世界大戰(zhàn),沒(méi)有經(jīng)濟(jì)大蕭條,我們的大戰(zhàn)只是心靈之戰(zhàn),而蕭條的只是我們的生活。我們從小看電視,相信有一天會(huì)成為富翁,明星或搖滾巨星。但是,我們不會(huì)。這是我們逐漸意識(shí)到的現(xiàn)實(shí),所以我們異常憤怒。
