BYE BYE 80'S >>> Crisis of the Capitalism

A man doesn't learn what teachers or parents say. We learn everything in a social practice. Forced thinking is easy to abandon for young people. But it is difficult for common people to cast off old ideas that were believed to be got by themselves.
A generation isn't a personal sense.It is an nonverbal atmosphere of group or social behavior. So it is difficult to talk about generation as a difference of thinking between one generation from others.
To be sophisticated as a consumer was the most important discipline for 80's."If you don't want to be loser,be smart, sexy, and fashionable."Commercialism stole into every thing. People didn't want changes. Capitalism was right.
80's have such an air.and infatuation with a big-name brand still now.
Even critics based on 80's zeitgeist already had become meaningless. In fact, because of the 80's, CAPITALISM FACED SERIOUSNESS NOW.

Obsolete word

Famous fashion brand files for bankruptcy in Japan. Yohji Yamamoto (Y's) , his name remind me 80's. And I remember a large number of obsolete word. I won't drag Japanese word. But actuary
many terms in a fashion magazine disappeared in the world.
Recently I don't see "Groovy" and"Foxy"in English . In Yahoo Answers(Japan) someone answered that they could be used with children. It sounds like "obsolete word". "bubble 80's" "lost90's",some Japanese use often such phrases. Many things have faded away for last two decades.
