At the age of twelve I decared to my parents that I was ashamed of three things…. I was ashamed of being human(because of our treatment of non-humans), I was ashamed of being a white westerner(because of our treatment of minorities), and I was ashamed of being male(because of our treatment of women).  To this day, that impression sticks with me, and for good reason. The one thing I left out was my shame for being a consumer…

Watch this, and you’ll feel ashamed of your stuff, and what it says about you.
