Well, they know people are watching and don’t care b/c they don’t think there will be consequences.

This country has a massive police rioting problem and it is never ever acknowledged.

Hard to party in an actively coming apart world.

People need to nurture the deeply depleted civil sphere, otherwise they’ll have no place to stand and say no. Those mid 20th century protests grew out of a strong/supportive/resourced civic sphere that has since disappeared. That’s what made them resilient/able to keep pressing as opinion changed.

I’m not sure we can apply the mid 20th century media/opinion context to this moment.Or that mass negative opinion(which already obtains on several counts)is the difference that makes a difference this time around.

They’re experimenting, but most likely plant fiber - paper/flax/hemp,etc.
comment in response to post
It can be coated with plant fiber to prevent this. It’s in the article.

You don’t have to pick a side any more than you do between a plague and an oubliette. That’s dumb. Find something else to do.

I have never enjoyed absurdist theater until today.

I think about this scene all the time and have always been surprised it doesn’t have more currency as a meme. It’s relevant so often.

It's a colour that I can't describe It's a language I can't understand Ambition tearing out the heart of you Carving lines into you Dripping down the sides of you We will not be the last We will not be the last We will not be the last We will not be the last We will not be the last

We promised the world we'd tame it What were we hoping for? Breathe in (Breathe out) Breathe in (Breathe out) Breathe in (Breathe out) Breathe in So here we are reinventing the wheel I'm shaking hands with a hurricane

I’ll never see this again! I don’t go in their stores anymore and almost no one will buy it. The end! They’re doing great at not selling clothes I guess.

How do you act like this when the only thing that gives you brand loyalty in a crowded market is that you make it pleasant for middle class liberals to shop there? It truly still astonishes me. It’s an *easy* boycott w/ lots of soft symbolic power. Just real dumb of them.

Yes.
