I didn't have to open this thread to formulate the reply: Actually, we don't.

Thread opened, it stands.

Might there be an image which best expresses the triteness and irony of this thread....?

If so, perhaps we could put his picture on a T-shirt wearing Mickey Mouse ears.

It's Sanskrit for "A Dipshit is Wearing This."

Yeah oao, further prove how trivial your political beliefs are by making a retarded fashion statement out of them.

It's sumerian for liberty, and it's the symbol for anarcho-capitalism. The point is to make people say "WTF does that shirt mean?" so you can lead them into libertarianism during conversation.

The Anti-Che shirts are a reaction to the idiot teens who walk around wearing Che shirts, and the rest are all there for various other reasons. The idea is to get libertarianism some interest.

"The point is to make people say "WTF does that shirt mean?" so you can lead them into libertarianism during conversation. "

That's you in a fucking nutshell. Superficial, self congratulatory pseudo intelletcualism, the real message of which is "I'm really great and totally interesting, don't you agree?"

Honest to christ, I don't know why any of us are wasting our time on you. STOP TRYING SO HARD TO BE SOMEBODY. Oh, and also? Try at very least to imagine that world is chock full of peole just as smart or smarter and with just as wide of range of really cool interests and beliefs as you.

So...the point of the shirts is to convert people on a superficial basis with prospects of a political belief they're probably very unlikely to understand or care about. Okay.

Libertarianism needs exposure, and bringing it up out of nowhere is kinda creepy. So it serves as a lead in. You can infer what you want about my character for that, but I just don't give a damn about your opinion.

I think that, if OAO was really all up to fucking the establishment, he would walk around naked. Imagine him at a party, when suddenly...

Person: Whoa, OAO, why are you all naked?
OAO: Now that you mention it, *libertarianism*
Person: Oh.

Or he'd wear leaves. Little tiny leaves that don't leave much to the imagination.


My grandpa is a libertarian, but I don't think of him as much of a rebel :/

These shirts kind of suck cock. The thing I really hate though is the punk fashion trend where they wear anti-nazi gear. Now dont get me wrong i hate nazi's also but they are gone. They wear that shit because they saw SLC punk and they think them and their crew are going to beat up the nazi punks; and since they arent really around they dont have to worry about getting the shit beat out of them.

It seems to me that if people were so easily swayed by t-shirt politics, then the "New Kids suck" shirt I wore in 6th grade would've effectively ended the reign of the teenyboppers.

Yeah, you're right. Using a T-shirt as the basis of foisting a steaming load of political opinions on someone who didn't ask for them is WAY less creepy.

They are? I wonder what the millions of Nazi supporters worldwide think of that.

Not just the southern US. Long Island, NY is filled with neo nazis.
