This is a bit unlike me, but I wanted to share my thoughts on the images above.
Yesterday I picked up some magazines for research. Randomly. I happened upon AdBusters from 2006. Every article was like reading current headlines - 20 years on nothings changed - The same questions about fascism creeping into democratic language. The same arguments, the same silences, & the same people paying the same prices.
And it made me think about the creative industry, the fashion industry, and about my peers, because we don’t really have a point of view. Not a real one. We have aesthetics. We have references. We’ll all gossip over a glass of natural wine and discuss who the new creative director of a brand is, or debate whether a collection was quiet luxury or just boring. But actual points of view? Politics. Things we actually believe and are willing to say out loud, are rarely ever spoken about.
And maybe it’s because we’re scared. But maybe it’s also because, for some of us, it genuinely doesn’t touch our daily lives - and that distance is its own kind of privilege. And for those it does affect, the cost is real. It’s being labelled difficult. The one who made it political. The one brands quietly stop calling. The one peers start distancing themselves from. That is a specific tax, paid by specific people. And nobody talks about it.
We choose to ignore it. We make it aesthetic. We make it a mood board.
This quote by Arundhati Roy.
“Our strategy should be not only to confront empire but to lay siege to it. To deprive it of oxygen. To shame it. To mock it. With our art, our music, our literature, our stubbornness, our joy, our brilliance, our sheer relentlessness — and our ability to tell our own stories.”
This is what we should all be pushing for. For the people who say they don’t do politics: silence is still a stance. Opting out is a choice. Think carefully about what you want to stand for - because whether you decide or not, you’re already standing somewhere.
This is me trying - to speak about something bigger than the shallow world we’ve agreed to perform in.

The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
Keep track of Instagram updates discreetly while protecting your privacy and staying anonymous.
View profiles and photos anonymously with ease using the Private Profile Viewer.
This free tool allows you to view Instagram Stories anonymously, ensuring your activity remains hidden from the story uploader.
