Angry People who buy diamonds are brainwashed dummies

People who pay exhorbitant prices for a worthless piece of crystallized carbon have been brainwashed by endless ad campaigns and subliminal movie outtakes.

When did we let sneaky slogans such as "Diamonds are a girl's best friend" or "Diamonds are forever" get the better of our intelligence and wallet?

For feck's sake, these "precious stones" are mined by poor and exploited Africans in muddy waters and pass through so many hands (with every person making a generous sum of money), that when it finds its way to the retail consumer, an useless piece of rock is fetching thousands of dollars per carat.

Listen boys, wake up and don't buy diamonds. It's the world's largest scam.
