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.
