"I want it now!" backdrop WW3

The most recent pop cultural 'aberration', which I won't even mention the name, refer to post "I want it now!" - Veruca Salt for the slight ambiguous dissection, has been the talk of the town.  Which is clearly embarrassing, even if it is an obvious over-exuberance of the tedium, noting the 'commentary' (negative) is a waste of mental power.  All the while we have one of the most serious military crisis looming in the last forty years.  Obama's counter play on Syria, the primer being nerve gas attacks on Syrian civilians (originating from either the Islamic cannibalistic bandits or Assad's forces) - which is actually a move against Russia's influence in the region.

So how do we shuffle this? More of the same pop-culture misfires? Or the beginnings of subtle or not so subtle attacks on oppression with dashes of confusion.  Hard to say.  We are in the wash cycle of history and yes unfortunately the negative aspects of history are repeating, but also some of the positive points.

Strange days or interesting times?
