Adbusters: Birth of the Mental Liberation Front
If you want to fix democracy, make secrecy taboo.
If you want to stop the media mindfuck, impose a psychic tax.
If you want to rein in the power of corporations, kill the corporate “I”.
If you want to fix the economy, pull off a paradigm shift in the science of economics.
If you want to halt global warming, make the price of products tell the ecological truth.
And if you want to stop our spiral into a long dark age, then admit that straight lines are godless and immoral.
There's only one way out of the existential fix we're in. In this issue, we unleash a force to crack the global mind.

Adbusters
19 books20 followersThe Adbusters Media Foundation is a Canadian-based not-for-profit, anti-consumerist, pro-environment organization founded in 1989 by Kalle Lasn and Bill Schmalz in Vancouver, British Columbia. Adbusters describes itself as "a global network of artists, activists, writers, pranksters, students, educators and entrepreneurs who want to advance the new social activist movement of the information age."
Characterized by some as anti-capitalist or opposed to capitalism, it publishes the reader-supported, advertising-free Adbusters, an activist magazine with an international circulation of 120,000 devoted to challenging consumerism. Past and present contributors to the magazine include Christopher Hedges, Matt Taibbi, Bill McKibben, Jim Munroe, Douglas Rushkoff, Jonathan Barnbrook, David Graeber, Simon Critchley, Slavoj Zizek, Michael Hardt, David Orrell and others.
Adbusters has launched numerous international campaigns, including Buy Nothing Day, TV Turnoff Week and Occupy Wall Street, and is known for their "subvertisements" that spoof popular advertisements. In English, Adbusters has bi-monthly American, Canadian, Australian, UK and International editions of each issue. Adbusters's sister organizations include Résistance à l'Aggression Publicitaire and Casseurs de Pub in France, Adbusters Norge in Norway, Adbusters Sverige in Sweden and Culture Jammers in Japan.
