While those who fervently supported Coronamania now act like the whole thing didn’t happen, I won’t go quietly and allow the worst abuse of government authority, the most egregious media misrepresentation and the craziest episode of mass hysteria in American history to be memory-holed.
If an event isn’t memorialized in a t-shirt, it’s like a tree falling, unseen, in the woods; it might as well not have happened. I still have t-shirts from my high school, college, law school and even amusement parks I went to as a kid. I still have Clash, Rage Against the Machine and Metallica shirts. Perhaps I’m unusual in this way. If a shirt still fits and more or less holds together, I keep it and wear it. I have so many that no shirt gets worn that often. I don’t wear polyester.
At various times during the Scamdemic, I wore a FREE HUGS t-shirt. I also DIY’d the FRANKIE SAYS NO VAXX t-shirt in my Substack avatar. I made and put a big plywood FLATTEN THE FEAR tag on my car’s bumper in April, 2020. I screwed it into the plastic bumper.
Now, it’s time for a Covid commemorative shirt. I was thinking of something simple. I was thinking: YOU GOT SCAMMED or, like the sign I put on my front porch on March 16, 2020: OVERREACTION.
Or maybe just this:
Show of hands: if you would buy some type of commemorative shirt, please LMK. If you like one of the suggestions above or have a better shirt concept, please LMK that, too. I don’t need to be the shirt author/designer. But I don’t want this occasion to pass, un-shirted. I’ll donate any proceeds to a charity of one reader’s choice, i.e., I’ll take your charity suggestions and choose the one I like best.
Thanks for LMK whether you’d buy a shirt or not. And if so, which of the above ideas you like best. Or if you have a better shirt statement/design idea. If there’s a critical mass, I’ll do it. If not, I'll just paint more pictures on plywood, continue to post on Substack and anger people by reminding them of the scam.
Regardless of whether we do a shirt or not, please keep this topic on the table.
I like "You Got Scammed" best because it's not subtle but in your face. The pic with the mask over someone's face is good too, except the duller citizenry will have a hard time figuring it out. I'd buy either, though.

Thanks for a non-paid subscriber post. I Will commit to buy for sure. I have seen many good ones over time. I had printed my own Fauci recommends wearing your mask over your eyes so you cant read his emails for the back window of the Rubble family car for a while.
