Activism thread

[AliceWorld]

I think it would be good to have a thread where we can post bits of activism. Sometimes they don't see worth a whole thread of their own, and they don't feel quite right in chat either, so here's a thread.

So to start us off, London Green Fair is hosting the finals of Miss Earth beauty pageant.

why they aren't a good thing here

I've emailed the organisers and they say they are thinking about it rather than the usual immediate attempt to defend.

Good lord this is mind boggling.

Good thread alice

Tits are used for all kinds of "p.c." stuff, eg PETA's anti fur thing. Truly shit.

[waves] to add my ongoing despair over girls' shoes.

Do you remember the phone sock on littlewoods online that was aimed at girls and said something like 'I'm too pretty to do maths'? I emailed them to complain (as did others) and I got an email back yesterday to say they removed it from their online store. A teeny, tiny bit of activism, but I felt chuffed. Have to start somewhere
