Come the revolution there’s only one place I’d recommend buying your t-shirts – if it doesn’t go against your Marxist principles :) – and that’s ProletarianThreads.com. Now as many of you might have guessed I’m a bit of a lefty myself, an all-round trouble maker and I have always had a soft spot for those with similar leanings. PT tick all the right boxes for me, and then some, they produce and sell some of the snazziest sweatshop-free, political, feminist and generally revolutionary t-shirts this side of The New World Order, and this side being the losing side (for the time being anyway).

If you want to guarantee avoiding being lined up against the nearest wall and shot by a revolutionary firing line, should the day come that the world governments finally lose it and the people rise up and take back everything they can get their hands on, including their human rights, land, and the means of production from the Bourgeoisie then PT is probably a good bet. Although I’m not as hot on Marxist theory as I was in my student days I’m sure that PT count as part of the merchant classes and hence members of the bourgeoisie but I wouldn’t hold that against them, I mean who actually toils in the fields these days, that’s what combine harvesters are for aren’t they?

New T-Shirts On The Block – Politicians and Babies.

I’ve a rather diverse selection of tee news for you today, starting with a few Barack Obama t-shirts available at ThrivingInk.com. Before you ask, I would feature McCain tee shirts here if they were as funky as Thriving Ink’s, but I somehow doubt that Republicans would want to wear anything as out there as these (first two) beauties. I do lean towards Obama for obvious reasons, the world oil crisis which has worsened so much more since the initial attack on Iraq, Guantanamo Bay, and the travesty of the Iraq war as a whole, plus the fact that Obama looks awake! read more

Heightened Security T-Shirt by Paul Baines

Heightened Security is my very latest design and was heavily inspired by my article on the Heathrow Terminal 5 debacle, not the disastrous opening of the new terminal, but rather the overbearing security and their ridiculous ban of a well known Transformers t-shirt, simply because it featured a cartoon laser. Read the Story >>

It seems that amidst the heightened security and a worldwide (or at least American Government) panic that somehow half the rogue states in the world are about to blow us all up, a lot of emotions have been heightened too. Recently a UK government report, yes it was commissioned by Labour, has given a severe warning to both the police and local authorities across the country to stop the infringement of human rights (as per many EU directives) or have their powers taken away. For the police this will mean no more random stop and searches, most of which have been just about anyone with dark skin (as per the killing of Brazilian man Jean Charles de Menezes on the London tube network) and for the local councils this could mean the end of CCTV surveillance. Hooray! We are the most watched country in the world and the UK doesn’t even have a constitution, we are supposed to be subjects (i.e lessers/serfs) of the Queen. If I’m not a citizen then I’m nothing.

Furthermore I can never agree that it is a necessary evil to remove the rights of all in order to protect the rights and freedoms of those same individuals. I have often discussed the future with my partner Christina, will we sit it out here in Britain or give up and move to Europe where many countries offer far greater human rights and abide by those laws? Furthermore many offer a far greater level of respect and support for artists than we get here in the UK. I have never had funding, or sponsorship, I had a limited grant for university and then nothing, the UK doesn’t support its artists, and now it doesn’t support human rights. I can see a disturbing trend spreading across capital-hungry states of the world, and I am afraid to say it has distinct a resonance of fascism. I don’t mean to be a scaremonger, but the evidence is here already. You can’t legislate the vilification of a minority, you can’t legalise brute force and lack of proper legal representation and due process.

The fact is that apart from the oil crisis, which essentially seems to have begun the day Bush announced he was going to bomb Iraq, the environment is disintegrating before our very eyes, more and more governments and politicians are blatantly controlling the media’s output, we are just about there, a fascist state.
