Urban Outfitters's sneaky conservative propaganda stunt markets dishonesty as irony -- again
By Mary Elizabeth Williams
Urban Outfitters has a reputation for selling edgy cool to urban hipsters. But the company was actually founded by Richard Hayne, a deep-pocketed Rick Santorum supporter. That makes the companys latest line of ironic Ts edgy, cool, conservative shirts backing Mitt Romney especially insidious.
Whats your pleasure, young person who lives in a Mormon Williamsburg of the mind? Mitt, dolled up like a member of KISS? A subtle picture of an oven mitt, and the word ROMNEY? A Hammer-pantsed 2 Legit 2 Mitt Romney which, if you think about it for half a second, doesnt make any sense whatsoever. And though I dont believe in victim blaming, I will warn you that if you decide to go walking down the street in a distressed, elephant-logoed Mitt Is the Shit shirt, you will have no one to blame but yourself for the inevitable butt-trouncing you receive. Or maybe youre more the Ron Paul: American Badass or Ron Paul & Drugs & Rock & Roll type. Because what is more badass than a guy who supports deregulating marijuana but not so-called family planning
