I was familiar to the term sell-out, specially to the meaning the documentary use for it.
I'm sure that we live in a time where the world is totally comercial, but not only for teenagers but also for adults and even Little children.
I believe this don't prive us from been free, but it certainly block our imagination, cretivity and originality, by making models and standards almost for everything.
Nowadays Pop culture is empty and at big companies service, they will always want to sell you something, and if they see you have talent they'll try to make it generic, this to be safe in something people may want, risks are not longer taken.
I believe blaming teenagers for culture current situation is a mistake, since adults are the one rulling the world, and they are the ones who sell the same product over and over again, they've created this world.
With Internet, teenagers have the possibility to express what ever they want, and to have access to any information they may need. This is good and bad at the same time, there's a lot of crap in the Internet that maybe a teen can't handle well.
It's in yourself if you want to follow the crowd or you want to take the risk of been unique. That's something that has always existed.
Teacher I hope is not too late for making hw, sorry.
