The designs on this page are for protest and support - trying to take a message and create an image that provides immediate impact on a tee or sticker.   The challenge is to create a bright and positive message instead of a negative and miserable one.

Our political masters thrive on fear and division.  Protest should be the opposite using happiness and unity to make the point.

The best designs are those that people make for marches and demos using wit and art in equal measure.  Pretty much everything else is a commercial corruption of the original idea.  You know your slogan is finished when the models on the catwalk are wearing it as a fashion statement.

As my protest design collection has grown over the years so too has the number of bans inflicted on related merchandise.  Phrases previously allowed are cancelled due to wokedom.  Other designs fall foul of the need to shut down anything people can identify with or gather around.  These are oppressive and worrying times for anyone who cares about personal freedom and the right to self-expression.

​Here is a random AZ of designs with a little comment on the whys and wherefores of them. 

Placing the anarchy design below on product amuses me.   That commercialisation is the exactly the opposite of anarchy in my opinion.  Wearing the tee while smashing a Starbucks window makes little sense.

The image is a fiery version of the simple graffiti logo spray painted wherever a wall is available. 

​I like the graphic and the anarchic sentiment as well.  If only we could smash the system and start a utopia.  The problem is someone always ends up in charge, and it begins all over again.

Some phrases resound no matter where you sit on the political spectrum.

Clown World is one of those.  We are living in a world of untruths, governed by clowns and forced to sit in a circus of lies.

This is laughable, except the reality is dangerous.  If we only have clowns in clown world who will speak up for us?

In 2020 as a white cop murders a black person this slogan first appeared.  In an extraordinary move the Minneapolis council voted to indeed - defund the police.  Quite what happens next is unclear.

What a great slogan for an election campaign Drain the Swamp is. 

​Everyone knows how corrupt and infested the political system in any country is and how swamp like and slow moving.

The shame is that swamps are hard to get rid of.  No sooner do you start clearing out the old one then a new swamp - worse than the one before - appears.

Why would career politicians and civil servants have it any other way?  Their livelihoods depend on an expanding endless swamp. 

The great thing, from the point of view of a tee designer, is Enough Is Enough covers many protest angles.

Whatever side you are on, the point of protest is often to stop something you disagree with.  Enough Is Enough contains the essential soundbite style three word phrase.  It protests against The Thing, whatever that may be.  And it sets a time limit on it.

Stop it, right now, because enough is enough.

Hold The Line means to stand your ground against incoming adversaries, whether financial, health or political enemies.

This is a design for proud Americans who respect the flag, the eagle and all it stands for.

A Luddite is an often disparaging term used to describe people who are against technology.  

It refers to the protesters against the Industrial Revolution - the first march of the machines in the 17th century when skilled workers were being replaced for more efficiency and profit.

The opinion of this site is that Luddites were heroes. 

A new age is coming where every job that can be done by cheap labour or robot is taken from the traditional workforce. 

​Opinions differ on whether this leads to an income for all or mass unemployment and civil unrest.

​It might be an idea to wake up.

Luddite is a term to value those crafts we have.  To treasure and protect them against globalisation and worker exploitation.

The inverted red triangle was worn by Nazi concentration camp political prisoners.  It is an image that is banned in some places because our world is so sensitive that a red triangle is potentially subversive.

The banning of images, memes, books, thoughts and freedoms are exactly why more people should wear the red triangle. 

​We are all political prisoners now.

Rules for thee but not for me sums up the two-tier society we live in.  Where the rulers such as politicians, celebrities and mass media instruct the great unwashed, that's you and me, how to behave.

We have to stop travelling, gathering together, eating meat and generally enjoying ourselves while they carry on as before.  We can enjoy their good fortune by pressing our noses against the restaurant window glass until moved on by their police force.

It's about the ruling class and the divide between rich entitled and the rest of us.

The opposite of Take A Knee - Stand For The Flag encourages people to take a patriotic or traditional stance.

The National Anthem is not the time to be protesting - it is a time to respect your country, citizens and society.

How ironic that the UK Met police were instructed NOT to wear their version of the US Thin Blue Line design for fear of giving offence when policing.  Because in our topsy-turvy world of make believe and fee-fees, allowing coppers to celebrate and have some pride in their civic role could be perceived as dangerous.

Whereas a bastardized rainbow flag covering all manner of sexual preferences is fine - nay compulsory - to be displayed in schools, churches and hospitals.

Ah well.  The Thin Blue Line becomes a symbol of protest. 

Uniparty design takes the Democrat Donkey and the Republican Elephant and combines them to create a single corrupt self-serving globalist beast.

​Who would vote for this animal which represents nobody - left or right.

Although this is an American themed design using the logos of the two parties, the principle applies across the world where democracy is practiced.  The main parties as in Orwell's Animal Farm have become indistinguishable.  When an occasional figure appears to offer a real choice they are hounded and victimised by coordinated attacks from the Establishment, Media and the usual State Actors.

This problem hurts both sides of the political debate equally.  When the representatives no longer represent and alternatives are not allowed the voters are the losers.

World's Gone Mad is a statement of exasperation and confusion.

That is the end of this collection of political slogans and images.

The players in politics, corporates, the super rich and media seem to have the game so sewn up and controlled that it is hard to see hope for democracy, decency, openness and honesty.

​The best way to fight back may be to ignore them.  Without attention they are nothing. Switch the news off, don't use social media and try to celebrate the good things people can do.
