You'd think Nike's all out assault of humanity thru abhorrent labor practices would satiate the multinational monolith! No, now they continue by ravaging original dissent with their commodification. Sure it's a, by now, age old practice, but how lame!  It seems their multi-million dollar marketing team felt such a dearth in their own creative prowess that they lifted MINOR THREAT's Album ART rather than create their own faux transgressive imagery. This is not homage! I suppose someone said.....just do it....and so is written another chapter on the idiocy of corporate culture.</description><thr:total xmlns:thr="http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0">0</thr:total></item><item><title>DISSENT</title><link>http://treatisefromnowhere.blogspot.com/2005/06/dissent.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous)</author><pubDate>Wed, 22 Jun 2005 10:02:00 -0700</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13452509.post-111946020851913491</guid><description>Amy Goodman's interview with Moyers was pretty good and seems apropos here in the realm of vlogging.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I think we're at a moment in American history that is unique.
