Popular culture thrives on gleefully parading around the failures of others in a vicious 'They are just like us!' cycle that gives celebrity to people purely because we find them unbearable. We're all guilty of letting it in at some point; right from the first moment you laugh at watching a man get hit in the balls with a football. Saying 'I don't pay attention to that' is simply not enough. Your lack of participation does nothing to solve the problem and like it or not, culture is not going away. Engage and promote entertainment you find valuable. Engage and promote advertisers that fund things you believe in. Engage and contact advertisers that fund things you believe are detrimental to society. And if you have something to say that you feel is important but is not supported by anything in popular culture, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE find a way to generate content so that the rest of us that want to back you can engage and promote your voice!
