And I don’t mean this sarcastically or facetiously. I mean it quite literally.

DON DRAPER CANNOT REACH HIS AUDIENCE ANYMORE.

We just grew out of bullshit. We are too smart to be fed bullshit all day. We see right through it immediately. We are the worst thing that Madison Avenue nyc ever encountered. We are worse the Taliban to advertising executives in their late 50s — 60's.

“We just don’t understand the children anymore. Why don’t they buy into our bullshit anymore? Ah those little terrorists!”

Well. I’m damned proud of you gen youth. You are getting wiser. I love it. They hate it.

“Dammit I love these younger gens. Seriously. I really do love them. Thank god for 6th sense and 3rd eyes. The bullshit detection monitor is on. Beware!”

So much for Don Draper and his career. He’s a chauvinist pig with a sense of undeserved entitlement anyway. He’s not a hero. He’d be the anti-hero of the series. We don’t seek to mimic him. Only baby boomers can misunderstand such a blatant plot subtext!

It’s like we all wish we were as cool and as hip as KING RICHARD III in Shakespeare’s venerable play.

No! We like the play. (maybe..), but RICHARD III Just got punk’d by the youth. And I’m excited again! Thank you “you beloved youths!”

So much for DON DRAPER, eh?

Dear “THE YOUTH OF THE NEW WORLD ORDER.” — - you have inspired me to live another day in hope. Thank you. I’m forever grateful.

ALWAYS You’re friend.

Michael E.

Postscript.

DEAR The Democrats. And your silly and inefficient PUBLIC IMAGE CONSULTANTS.

IF YOU WISH TO REACH THE YOUTH WITH YOUR ADVERTISING.

YOU HAVE TO SEE THE WORLD THROUGH THE EYES OF THE yYOUTH.

Here. — —

PUT ON THESE SPECIAL SUNGLASSES — — welcome to the lens in which the younger generation sees the world around them.

Part 2. For the HBO PR k

Part 3 for Bill Maher. Johnny public. Glossy public stooges.

Go go go! House Democrats

The Huffington Post. You can’t reach us. You must go to Peru first. See the shaman. Drink the Ayuasca root we all drank as children. — - then you must literally die. And come back to life. All in the matter of 2 days in isolation in the Amazon jungle alone.

fuck you! ❤️🙏🏻🖕🏻

Kids tend to take after their GRANDPARENTS. — - it’s just a fact. — — and our grandparents were hardcore.
