A recent example is that of a Danish artist, Nadia Plesner. To raise awareness of atrocities in Darfur and criticize the materialism inherent in popular culture, Nadia made an image of an African child carrying a Chihuahua and a handbag. What happened next defies the imagination. The well known producer of mediocre overpriced handbags, Louis Vuitton, decided to react by suing Nadia. In their opinion the bag resembled one of their crappy handbags, despite being devoid of any logo. Naturally, Nadia reacted by telling them to go screw themselves, and as of speaking, the image is still prominently featured on her site. Louis Vuitton is demanding hundreds of thousands of dollars from her, the amount increasing with thousands of dollars every day the image remains on her website. Of course Nadia makes no money from the art, all money goes toward charities for Darfur. This case illustrates how corporations can effectively end our free speech the moment we say something that conflicts with their own agenda, like the anti-materialist message of Nadia's "simple living" campaign. Therefore, it is time that we retaliate. Now, a simple way would be to stop buying these handbags. There's one problem though; as young angry males, we're not exactly part of the demographics that Louis Vuitton is targeting. However, there is a solution to this problem. We will have to destroy the image of Louis Vuitton. I present to you: OPERATION SKANKBAG Objective: Financial damage to Louis Vuitton. The more, the better. Methods: We will use any non-physcially violent method available to us to cause financial damage to Louis Vuitton. Method one was explained on Reddit. It involves buying replica Louis Vuitton handbags and giving them away to homeless people. If your sister has an old bag it will work perfectly well of course. Spreading the negative messages about Louis Vuitton will work as well. Enter into Google "Louis Vuitton Whores". Spray graffiti about Louis Vuitton. Take down their websites, hand out flyers in front of their stores. We will do anything we can to punish Louis Vuitton for infringing on our freedom of artistic expression, for we are [[Anonymous]]. We do not forgive, we do not forget. Expect us.</big></big><br /> | valign="bottom" style="overflow:hidden; color:silver; font-size:3.6em; font-family:serif; font-weight:bold; text-align:right;" | „<br /><span style="line-height:0.55em;"> </span> |- | colspan="3" | <p style="font-size:85%; line-height:1em; text-align:right"><cite style="font-style:normal;"></cite></p> |}</div></div> </center> |}</div></div> </center> |
