Unisex with a relaxed cut, true to size, S to 4XL. Garment-dyed heavyweight tee.

Fear is the whole strategy. Not a side effect, not a rough edge on an otherwise serious plan, the actual product, because a person who is frightened stays home and a person who stays home is easy to govern, and the person in the tee saw the mechanism and stopped staying home. Once you can see it, it works less well. This tee hands the trick over in five words.

Wear it to the march you were told to skip, the political psychology lecture, the town hall, the newsroom, and the family dinner where a relative is frightened on schedule. It is a sharp gift for a psychologist, a reporter, an organizer, and the friend who left the house anyway.

The tee is a Comfort Colors 1717, garment-dyed in 6.1 oz ring-spun cotton, soft and evenly colored, with a heavier hand than a novelty tee and three lines that read across a march you were told to skip. Direct-to-garment. It bonds with the cotton.

Unisex, relaxed, true to size. S through 4XL. Colors: Black, White, Bay, Blossom. Also Chambray, Graphite, Ivory, Banana. It is the mechanism in the anti-Trump collection.

Designed and printed to order in the USA. Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Tumble dry low. Do not bleach or iron the design.

Printing and care

Printed to order in the USA, direct to garment: water-based ink goes into the fabric rather than sitting on top, so the print stays soft and does not crack or peel.

Machine wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Do not iron the print. More on the fabric and care page.
