Our discussion today will be about consumerism. I want you to think about this quote from Mark Poster's chapter, "Dick's novel explores the Ubikquity of the ad and its relation to the formation of a humanity that is synthesized with information machines." Take a position on the quote either agreeing or disagreeing with the statement. You can respond to someone else's post, or just make a statement of your own. patty_shantz https://padlet.com/patty_shantz/4iasvk6q6epj/wish/390709278 2019-09-27 18:25:20 UTC https://padlet.com/patty_shantz/4iasvk6q6epj/wish/390709278 Definition of consumerism: the theory that an increasing consumption of goods is economically desirable patty_shantz https://padlet.com/patty_shantz/4iasvk6q6epj/wish/390709503 2019-09-27 18:25:45 UTC https://padlet.com/patty_shantz/4iasvk6q6epj/wish/390709503 I agree desiree_n_walker https://padlet.com/patty_shantz/4iasvk6q6epj/wish/392036859 2019-10-01 17:23:51 UTC https://padlet.com/patty_shantz/4iasvk6q6epj/wish/392036859 i think people consume the things they like to hit their desires... baylie_m_thiel https://padlet.com/patty_shantz/4iasvk6q6epj/wish/392037564 2019-10-01 17:24:43 UTC https://padlet.com/patty_shantz/4iasvk6q6epj/wish/392037564 anna_j_langert https://padlet.com/patty_shantz/4iasvk6q6epj/wish/392038924 I agree with the quote because essentially what it is saying is that the brainwashing of consumerism is what simplifies everyone's ideologies and forces many to subject into a simple characteristic so ads can target consumers directly promoting the idea of consumerism. ]]> 2019-10-01 17:26:28 UTC https://padlet.com/patty_shantz/4iasvk6q6epj/wish/392038924 makenzie_e_dobbins https://padlet.com/patty_shantz/4iasvk6q6epj/wish/392039802 i agree because consumerism is something everyone uses]]> 2019-10-01 17:27:31 UTC https://padlet.com/patty_shantz/4iasvk6q6epj/wish/392039802 I agree because , consumerism is something that everyone needs and does.
