...of how the 'hypocrite' and 'you can't make difference' attitude operates. Here it's mouthed by a media man and Brand can see what he's doing which is why Brand starts shutting him down immediately... and why the media dude starts raising his voice and speaking over Brand. Classic example. Brand points out how important and inspiring it is to 'directly interact with others' and 'know you can make a difference'... and how doing that reveals that the feeling of 'lack of power'- must be what power +wants+ you to feel... because it keeps you voiceless and ineffective.
