This is not simply hyper-consumerism it\u2019s also a metaphysical claim, a claim to superiority, thus while others are bounded by ethnicity, class, gender; limited, objects, with a finite set of facets and characteristics, the hipster, viewing everything as simply a lifestyle choice, views her own not just as one lifestyle among many but the lifestyle of lifestyles.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.talkingpointsmemo.com\/news\/2009\/09\/full_text_of_newsmax_column_suggesting_military_co.php?ref=fpblg\">Read<\/a>.
