I saw this –
– so I stared a bit, trying to recall ever seeing any ads for “kill the racist” or “kill the homophobe” shirts, and then I Googled “official kill the terf shirt” and found, depressingly, that it’s not just the one company.
Then I Googled “official kill the racist shirt” and found…no match.

Seeing this makes me see red, that it’s acceptable to print, ship, and mail such trash, while Maya Forstater is in a tribunal and being admonished for her “tone.”
And there are no “Kill the Trans” shirts that I could find, although there were a few “Stop killing Black Transwomen.”
The important thing is that it’s the “official” kill the terf shirt. Presumably that means it is licensed by the Kill a Terf Foundation. Accept no substitutes. No knock-off “kill the terf” apparel.
Kill Nazis shirts are pretty easy to find… Probably by some of the same vendors. And yes, Nazis are a whole new level but the people selling these shirts tend to have an overly broad definition of Nazi.
Once killing Nazis becomes acceptable, the definition of Nazi expands broadly.
At least when I was in the “punching Nazis” camp I thought I was a Bad Guy doing Necessary Evil so that the Good Guys could keep on being Good Guys…
Turns out the Good Guys aren’t all that good, so why be Necessarily Evil?
I remember someone sharing the sentiment that you could tell which side was wrong by seeing which side the Nazis were on. I said this was a problem, because lots of people get called Nazis. No, just look at the “real” Nazis, I was told. Seems circular to me still.
