I think American Eagle is glad to see the free publicity they are receiving from the Sydney Sweeney "controversy". They'll sell a lot more jeans as a result of the uproar.
The BBC and (Manchester) Guardian have morphed into Pravda and Izvestia. How long before the samizdat of Substack falls foul of NIIT and the Online Harms Act?

Grauniad soyboy luvvie Owen Jones is still ranting that it is true and is stamping (Thtamping) his ickle Saddo Khan sized boots and screaming (Thkweeming!) that most of the Gazan population are on the point of extinction as they're being starved by the evil Zionist entity in Jerusalem and the villainous IDF whose sole source of amusement according to him (and the Grauniad) is the IDF SS Totenkopfverbande nazis shooting unarmed civvies for ciggy bets as they are queuing up for a stale loaf and a cup of bug infested water from the Hamas freedom fighter wagons that are dishing out aid. Apparently..... I don't think he's 'all there' at times and he's refusing to talk to me again.
Enough of all this serious stuff about good looking young women and ersatz starving children. It is time that, having inadvertently glance at my reflection in a passing mirror, to come out of the closet and declare to the world that I am short fat and hairy and what's more I don't care who knows it.
The odd thing is that I am also phenomenally handsome, I have told my wife this many times and she agrees. Indeed she expresses her appreciation of what I call my Adonis appearance by the traditional means of scorn and disdain; a subtle female ploy to hide her real sentiments.
Her apparently contradictory attitude to my startling good looks is a nice counterpoint to the smiling demeanour of those Palestinian female things proudly waving their starvation mascot around.
I think they were ill advised by their advertising agency; I believe they employed Bunsen Hegarty and Bulow, an agency known for its slightly out to lunch campaigns.
I think they were the same agency that had the idiotic effrontery to use an attractive young white woman to front an ad campaign flogging jeans.
Honest to God, how naively stupid can those creatives be. Do they not take all relevant facts into account when choosing someone to front their publicity. Did they not know that the blond they chose to wear the jeans in question is a complete failure. She was entered for a Lizzo looky likey competition and was placed an abysmal last.
They would have sold far more many lots of denim leg wear by using the actual Lizzo to shift the denim; one pair of jeans for Lizzy baby equates to thirty nine point six normal sized jeans. Two Lizzo's worth of jeans and you got a world denim shortage.
The daft thing is that the ad agency's first choice for the mother in the starving baby campaign was Lizzo but she ate the baby and split her jeans.
Way to go Laura! You really hit the many targets on the head, with truth and the courage to tell it like it is! Maybe, just maybe, more people will open their eyes and ears! One can hope! Bravissima!
"She looks like a woman from before the world went mad"
With respect, the assertion is rational, but could do with modifiers such as "stark," and "raving."
Whereas Ms. Sweeney is indubitably pulchritudinous, celebrating her charming exhibitionism is to celebrate subliminally manipulative advertising.
Mind you, I really can't stridently disagree with the article's premise, but celebrating "selling with unobtainium" is only normative by comparison with what has attempted to supplant it.
That said, there's nothing unwholesome or maladaptive about regarding such youthful charms, but it is wholly advisable to keep a firm grip on one's wallet when doing so.
Great post highlighting the complete depressive state of this country at the minute. It just seems to get worse and worse with each passing week.
Just finished reading “Free Your Mind”. An absolutely brilliant book! Hopefully there’s another book of yours in the pipeline in the not too distant future 🤞
It’s a sick world. We should all run out and buy the jeans. Those moronic women who protested don’t do themselves any favours.
Yes we are ruled by terrorist supporting thugs who are throwing the Jewish people aside. Do you know there are restaurants in Gaza? So much for starvation.
Well done for your continued courageous coverage.
I never believed the photo because I don’t believe anything MSM says about Israel. MSM are the terrorists’ useful idiots.
be aware the petition on the uk government and parliament petition page.....repeal the online safety act it currently has 469,327, signatures it urgently needs many more be sure to sign it and reshare it widely all over the uk with as many like minded people as you possibly can and be sure to ask each one of them to do exactly the same as im asking you to do in this message you are currently reading
Brings to mind this old story from 2023 about how being healthy and fit is how everyone will become little Nazi's. Because, of course, being healthy and fit is one of the defining traits of Fascism!!:
‘Everything you’ve been told is a lie!’ Inside the wellness-to-fascism pipeline
I'll take this opportunity to point out that the author of this horrible writing - overlong, redundant, fallacy after fallacy, obtuse, mind-numbing linguistic diarrhea - is an infamous known professional liar, aka propagandist, James Ball. Of WikiLeaks ignominy. The mole who tried to take WikiLeaks down, sabotaged Julian Assange, Ball is a literal piece of ...
I did a real deep dive on him, will keep this comment short with some links to help the curious readers, and maybe it inspires others to find out the parts of his story that make more sense of my assertions about him. Not the least of which is his bio found in web searches. Doesn't make any sense when you put it all together. Telling of the false construct his public story is.

I don't give a sh1t about them tracking me.
The advice is for those who do care about data capture and privacy.

''That's why we partnered with the Tor Project to develop Mullvad Browser – a browser designed to MINIMIZE tracking and fingerprints''
Minimizes is different to preventing.
True. I stand corrected.
Verrrry interesting, thank you.
Superb post, written with passion and pith. Thank you.

Always a plus. ;o)

Again, fits the correction I made to your post, re: their priorities: Lie. Professional propagandists are professional liars. Read accordingly.
