    There is something almost admirable about this. People usually tie themselves in knots trying to be seen as thought leaders in order to sell weird pills or whatever to chuds, meanwhile this guy just walks up to a far right riot and starts selling beer without doing any of the customary prep work.

      Probably didn’t even have a permit. Capitol police had bigger fish to fry (shoot).

        I mean there a hundreds of events at the national mall every year and this vendor probably viewed the chud insurrection no different than the annual 12th grade national cheerleading convention

    I sort of hate myself for not pulling off the same grift. You could have made so much money selling little cups of "patriot lemonade."

        Oh believe me, I'm working in graphic design and I have been tempted by this idea on so many occasions... I just haven't found a way to justify it to myself ethically.

          Make it so that if you take all the first letters of each word it spells "communism will win"

          Alternatively add one based line to the text like "[shit about guns chuds love] ... MY second amendment says you can't kill me for having my gun. Don't like it, suck it up butter cop" (typo and/or illegible typeface intentional)

          Use the shittiest screen printer that you can so that damn near everything fades within one or two washes. And then hop to a new Etsy (or whatever the alt-right equivalent is) account once the negative reviews start piling up.

          suckers have money, you want money. The shirt really doesn't make them more dangerous, if anything it makes them easier to spot and neutralize in an emergency. more money they spend on your stupid shirt, less money they spend on campaign merch or guns.

            Here's the answer I was looking for! Alright, I'll give it a try. Anyone have any ideas for my first piece of right-wing apparel? More importantly, a good CHUD name I can sell under?

              Happy to have helped. WorkingMan'sGoods would be a good name because it sounds chuddy but secretly talks to what you like. Or anything with america or patriot in the name.

    I think I read this in one of those freakanomics books, apparently when US army was occupying iraq, best way to stop riots in the streets quickly is by removing all the kebab stalls on main streets

    Turns out the hot dog stand guy was the true organizer of the insurrection, all to sell more hotdogs.

    A genius move, really. Sales went up 10000% and he almost did away with america all in one fell swoop.
