Shepard Fairey: Manufacturing (Dis)content

You know how in high school there’s always that one kid who’s like, “Awww, lets blow off class and steal some flashlights and sneak into a sewer?” He’s the kind of guy that pulls up to prom with his hot, art-school girlfriend in like some sort of go-cart thing he made with this homeless guy. The real boring-ass kids are always trying to get him in trouble, and they’re always telling each other he might be cool now but he’s gonna end up working at a convenience store. Well that kid grew up to be Shepard Fairey, he’s a millionaire now, and all of those boring-ass kids grew up to be boring-ass cops and boring-ass politicians and they hate him. They hate him forever eternally.
