I feel the same about those stupid ribbons all over everyone's bumpers right now.
Nice Try On The Guilt Trip Though,

I think Pink Ribbons for Breast Cancer and the Live Strong bracelets raise awareness. Sales of those items go towards research.
Most people know at least one person affected by some sort of cancer, which makes it personal.
So I disagree with you that it is *sheeple mentality* to participate in such awareness raising campaigns. For the most part, I think it's the opposite and quite personal.
No Guilt Trip,
