I figured by now the war should have attracted enough grifters for the symbols to start mutating. Now I'm casually trawling through the t-shirt websites looking for a spectacle bingo. :debord-tired:

      I'm tempted to get it because it's so fucking gaudy. Geopolitical diarrhoea.

      edit: One of the comments from it-

      Beautiful piece of work. I take it to restaurants when we dine out and have it filled with my favorite beer. One waiter put a hand on my shoulder and told me his grandfather was a Ranger, and thanked me for my service. Very moving! https://www.etsy.com/listing/921093238/black-mug-15oz-army-82nd-airborne

      He takes his own special veteran mug, a coffee mug, to restaurants so they can put beer in it. I do not even fucking what.

      edit: Their entire store is just that shirt repeated for different things.

        How could you miss the one for the 25th Infantry Bicycle Corps that existed from 1896-1897?

          Oh god, I might need that as a participation trophy for commuting by bike sometimes.

          I trawled all 31 pages and by like page 10 felt like I was having a stroke. Definitely missed at least a few other good ones because they blended in with the absolute slop.

            I put it in my shopping cart for group rides but I've been hovering over the checkout button. Buying it feels like I'm weakening the store owner's grasp on reality.
