Same reason I don’t want to see a shirt showing Hitler splattering his brain against the wall. If you’re eating or trying to relax or just not a big fan of violence, this is not a good shirt to see
Fascists don’t care whether or not you’re a “fan of violence” when they decide you’re someone who needs a lynching. If they weren’t making a resurgence, these kinds of shirts/messages wouldn’t be necessary. Alas…
So you’re saying, might as well give them a good reason?
Like, I honestly don’t understand what point you’re making here. If these fascists are going to lynch you even without a reason, how much more likely do you think they’ll do it if you give them one?
Unless you’re trying to volunteer to be lynched first in the hopes of saving others by giving them a chance to escape or whatever, I really can’t see good reason for why wearing a shirt like this would be “necessary”.

Youre missing the point. Its not about the display of violence, its about trivialising a form a horrific racial violence.
So awareness of an issue must always be first person? Holding up a mirror to fascists is trivializing their violence?
Is that what youre doing it…
