AdBusters goes after the worldwide hipster clique:

An amalgamation of its own history, the youth of the West are left with consuming cool rather that creating it. The cultural zeitgeists of the past have always been sparked by furious indignation and are reactionary movements. But the hipster’s self-involved and isolated maintenance does nothing to feed cultural evolution. 

But the writer seems to end up sounding like one of what founder of Vice Gavin McInnes calls those "chubby bloggers who aren’t getting laid anymore and are bored, and they’re just so mad at these young kids for going out and getting wasted and having fun and being fashionable.”

Leave it to adbusters to turn sermonizing and lecturing into cultural commentary.

Hahaha. Yeah, I much prefer having fun and going out to be mad at the people having fun and going out.

Also, it just kind of throws all the people going out and having fun into one big boat of going out and having fun people, many of whom when they aren't going out and having fun are working so that others can go out and have fun, too.
