Barbie in the elections
Wearing the same clothes for a long time is not well seen, it may be. They once told a professor friend in the liceo that it was time to buy a new jacket. This trend has been reinforced. Broadcasters and TV commentators each day stretch different garments. Mikel looks exempt from Aiestaran (biba! ), but I suspect that women are forced to put their feet in the heels that are hammered by the metatarsals.
Many politicians also take great care of their exterior aspect, following fashion with passion. It is understood that everyone has the right to express himself with elegance and spirit. On the contrary, it is unintentional to wear clothes constantly, and some politicians in the Basque Hego, unfortunately women know it more. Sometimes they remember Barbie, a doll thought to change the dress. If only those on the right, half wrong, would be in order. Concerns begin when a similar path is perceived in many nationalists, leftists, progressive. And the phenomenon reaches its highest level in electoral acts, converted into model exhibitions.
Will we see that he does the campaign in two or three clothes? Because life is not Barbilandia, and this real world can no longer bring fast fashion.
They will tell us that these clothes have been borrowed and, without throwing them, they go back into the sales circuit. It is a pity because the second-hand market is also consumption, heat consumption and, above all, because it does not remove the stereotype nor prevents the compulsive desire to change clothing, but could maintain the model it carries.
In short, the Black Friday frenzy does not stop, the accusations against him are wasted and the destruction continues. To give way to the new clothes, what is not old empties out of the closet and goes to Africa or America to fill the monster landfills. Not only that. The fashion industry operates first of all the ferocious exploitation of workers, especially women, and then the planes used to transport clothes from one end of the world to another emit 8% of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, as explained in number 2851 of ARGIA.
The global authorities have no way of curbing these abuses. But, as fashion users, it is also the responsibility of women to give up this system, especially those that appear publicly, which are a donor example for others. Will we see that he does the campaign in two or three clothes? Because life is not Barbilandia, and this real world can no longer bring fast fashion.

I received your e-mail in personal mail on the strike portals. At first, like many others, I thought it was to let you know what options we have in the face of the strike. But no, the e-mail received was a political and communicative movement against the strike.

This weekend I've been thinking about the word 'aesthetic' in relation to a phrase said by a friend: “This work is aesthetic.” I have studied the etymology of the word aesthetic, it seems that its meaning was originally perceived through the senses, and it was later associated... [+]
In recent years, the concept of industrial policy has reappeared strongly at various levels. The organization that was the hammer of neoliberalism, the International Monetary Fund, today insists that markets have been pressured to allocate resources efficiently and solve these... [+]
The other day in Bilbao, I met a friend at the Bira bar. We were very happy at the Tar and I said: “Of course, since you’re Guipúzcoa, hahahaha.” And he insisted that he was not Guipuzcoan. Without me understanding it, I kept saying, “Ah! Is it not? You were born in New... [+]
Zalantza asko izan ditut, meloia ireki ala ez. Ausartuko naiz, zer demontre! Aspaldian buruan dudan gogoeta jarri nahi dut mahai gainean: ez da justua erditu den emakumearen eta beste gurasoaren baimen-iraupena bera izatea. Hobeto esanda, baimen-denbora bera izanda ere, ez... [+]
We are in the midst of a world imperialist offensive led by the Western bourgeoisie. The form that the imperialist offensive has taken is that of war, with all its variants: economic war, cognitive and cultural war, lawfarr; and, of course, military war. Western imperialism has... [+]
I just saw a series from another sad detective. All the plots take place on a remote island in Scotland. You know how these fictions work: many dead, ordinary people but not so many, and the dark green landscape. This time it reminded me of a trip I made to the Scottish... [+]
To be honest, I don't know why I'm writing this. In today’s hostile environment, opinions of this kind are not well received. Perhaps LUZ will not publish this because it does not correspond to the opinions they have published so far (but if they have finally decided to publish... [+]
On January 15, the techno-business lobby called Cedarios presented its 6th report, Euskadi and the European Union, the shared destiny of prosperity and competitiveness. This neoliberal Think Tank, made up of eminent experts drawn from the world of finance, presented a magical... [+]
We Basques move our feet behind the witness of Korrika to proclaim that we want to survive as a Basque people in favor of our language, with the aim of the Basque Country we desire.

And for another year, the unions have organized prefabricated strikes for us. And we, individually, will decide whether or not to join the strike, without the need for any assembly at the school.
The strike model that I was taught is no longer in vogue, it seems. In my... [+]
Life surrounds everything, it is limited and fragile. To live good lives, it seems to me that the body knows what to do, while the mind, although it knows (when it is well informed), often sees the body deliberately silence. In this silence the mind opens itself to relations... [+]
