As badly as I want this shirt, I could never wear it. Live in rural Oklahoma and it would cause nothing but fights. Sigh, oh to live anywhere but here
I live in Ohio and wear it regularly, though I’m getting more nervous about it as the days go on.
But fuck it.
Good on you, keep at it as long as you are able, those who are in danger and stuck in the most dangerous places need to see someone sticking up for them the most. ✊
First of all - yes, violence is the Nazi language, and probably the simplest way to get through to them. Pain and hurt is what they signed up for, and I wouldn’t mind giving it to them.
But also consider:

I’m not against violence at all.
Violence solves many problems.
I AM against authoritarian violence against the unprivileged.
Yeah that’s a hell of a shirt to wear though.
The message is clear, and people trying to defend the KKK and/or Nazis are the very same who need to see that message.
It’s a play on the “paradox of tolerance”. TLDR: If you tolerate intolerant people, the intolerant eventually work their way into power and authority.
See this is where you go off the rails. I support your idea and message but wearing a shirt of anyone getting their brains blown out is pretty hectic, divisive and inflammatory.
What part of the KKK and Nazis gave you the idea that they weren’t already hectic, divisive, and inflammatory? I would go as far as saying that it’s the whole point of the KKK and Nazis.
You cannot reason these people into acceptance of others who aren’t like them. The only way you can deal with a violent and intentionally cruel group is by meeting them with their own methods. They have no issues committing genocide, so why should I take the high road with them when they clearly have every intention of going low and taking cheap shots wherever they can?
People wearing shirts like this in public will absolutely stir the pot, but it will also cause some to think twice before committing acts of violence against marginalized groups, which is an improvement.
Those who react negatively to this imagery in defense of the KKK/Nazis are the ones you need to be worried about.

That is a wild statement and my entire point. That’s your thoughts, some people dislike violence full stop, regardless of who is committing and who is suffering the violence. I’m honestly struggling to think of a single socially acceptable place to wear the t-shirt outside of a protest. Even then, it’s like you’re hoping the protest turns into a riot.
Edit: and further, who the fuck said the KKK isn’t inflammatory etc? You guys really need to sit the fuck down and have a think about the shit you are spewing.
You clearly don’t want to understand my viewpoint here, so I’m just gonna leave.
Weird that people may be intolerant of the intolerant. Maybe don’t fetishize genocide if you can’t handle a little of that same energy back.
That’s a Klansmen, not a Nazi.
Joe Biden must be underneath that mask
The election is over, grandpa. We got new things to worry about.
Also, what is up with your comment history? For every 6 comments in the negatives you got one controversial one at best. Not a single unquestionably positive comment with you.
Just trolling. Gotta do something while I’m on the toilet. None of my comments on here are serious.
Not a grandpa yet. That would send me into overdrive with these over the top comments
Ah, well I hope you have a serious account somewhere. Otherwise it’s giving shitting in the living room energy, you know?
FC St. Pauli has better anti-Fascists shirts and I do not want to stoop to the level of a shit neo-Nazi MAGAt.
Boy, there are a whole lotta shitty takes in this thread. Glad to start a conversation.
