Tried to watch it but videos with out of sync audio just bugs the hell out of me. Sorry, I'm going to have to fail you!

yeah saw this around 2 years ago,

now i don't disagree with consumerism being a problem, goo3's post reminded me of what i had against this video. She is simply using too many little facts that isn't really related to consumerism to convince people to agree with her point of view. Oftentimes exaggerating or even lying to some extent.

Now i don't know if she is doing this on purpose or not, but supporting her and agreeing with her is difficult because it would feel like im getting swindled, so meh. In the end, everybody is just gonna finnish the vid(or in this case, give up cause the audio sync is horrible) and decide that stopping their own over consumption is not going to make a difference because their only one in billions living on this earth.

The video is out of sync. And yay for unverified facts.

Personally I'm crazy cheap.
