I Turn on the computer to browse trough the internet and the first thing that I tend to do is check youtube

to look at my subscriptions. The first thing I see whenever I want to watch my video is an advertisement that tends to be selling things I am interested on. This is not an exclusive case, every person gets their own personalized advertisements because of the data bases that are daily feed as we browse trough the internet. As an adult with economic responsibilities I do not really click on those since I cannot spend money on those trivial things. On the contrary teens tend to be the ones that make this on-line advertisements a success since they have the cash to freely spend in those trivial things. Although this sounds as a healthy selling technique, the truth is that is only one of the many techniques daily used to exploit teenagers. In the path of making them buy their product they go on the inmature minds and mold them for bad or good to consume. The big Monster of corporations takes teenagers bombarding them with their own advertisement weapons to make profit from it's whealth. The cool agents have been trained in order research teenagers. The big corporations hire expert people to socialize and investigate teenagers in order to know they weakness. This agents target teens that they think are a good popular and charismatic enough to be models for others. This teens are studied. They make study groups in order to know what right now is cool. Other of this cool children which are considered good, they train this children (uconsiously) so that this go out and propragate this cool culture so that when they see it advertised they would feel the necesity to obtained. Several aproaches are used to have a better perspective of the adversary they are trying to conquer. Whatever is cool on the moment they would follow the tendency. The people behind the corporations exploits the information obtained by the teenagers. Once they have acumulated the actual information they used this information in order try to obtain the most money they can from this teenagers. Just as the brithsh colony this big corporations choose a posible enemy that is weak (in this case mentally weak since a teenager does not know how to defend itself really) and once it has found it;s weaknes exploits everything they can from this enemy. The control this people has on information has been so long that at this moment it is hard to know who really modls what is cool the corporations or the teenagers, as the narrator in the special says :that the thing we call yought culture it wasn't something thing that was just sold to us, it was something that became from us. An act of expression not just con consumption this people has achieved another level in the control of will.they are now in power of the teenagers, they have them dominated and they are able to exploit them almost at their will. this people is so much behind the system that have been a dangerous for teenagers. In my two past paragraphs I denoted how the collected information has let them in a advantageous position to attack teenagers, this is why they are dangerous. Teenagers are an easy target not just because they have free money to spent, but because they are not fully mentally mature to undertand how they are beeing manipulated by the media and everything that now surrounds them. Teenagers struggle to fit in what society calls normal. They will follow this key teens and idols to follow the idea that the others have as normal and cool. And since this has already been corrupted by the corporations the teenagers are just following a chart created in order to follow a consumption patter. This is a really dangerous situation since the corporations have gotten a control into a big portion of the population. They've filled teenagers heads with a corrupted idea of what ideal and normal is, and most teenagers would follow this patter, making it an exponential explotion of behavior that was planted by this corporations. They are exploiting and manipulating teens ideas just as in a war campaing in which they try to fill the enemy with ideas in order to keep them undercontrol and withour minding what the real problem is. The big corporations are a big potence that has controlled teenagers. Teenagers are a weak target by nature. The big coorporations take advantage of this situation and research them in order to know what their weakneses are and what would be the perfect ways to reach them and be able to win terrain and set their products in their lives. Once they have achieved this they exploit them in every way they can they target all the posibilities and keep changing them. Thus I do believe that just as in

the prompted analogy the big corpotations are like a big British empire that takes over the colonies in affrica to exploit them.
