The Existentialist Republic Store is Live (Plus: Why I'm Doing This)
Friends,
I've been writing about American decline and paths to renewal for a bit now. Today I'm trying something different: turning some of our truths into wearable resistance.
The Existentialist Republic store is now live (soft launch week: helping me figure out what resonates before the full rollout) with a small collection of products featuring quotes from my articles. Yes, I'm selling things. That's because waiting for corporate media to platform these ideas is how we lose.
“Abolish Billionaires" Bumper Sticker: Great for putting on a Tesla that you 100% are the legal owner of. ($7.87)
“Registered Sex Offenders Love Trump" Sticker: Great as a birthday gift for your weird MAGA uncle. ($7.87)
The Activism Journal: Whatever you put in this journal, it's impossible for Zuckerberg to hand it over to authoritarians unless he personally steals your backpack. ($15.17)
Look, I know merchandise might feel trivial against fascism's rise. But three things happen when you wear these messages: You find your people. You normalize resistance. And you fund independent writing that names what oligarch media won't touch.
If nothing here speaks to you, that's fine; keep reading and know I appreciate that you want the world to be a better place. But if you've ever had someone assume you're 'one of them' because you stayed quiet, now you can literally wear your principles into the world.

P.S. The first 48 hours matter most for momentum. And seriously, what truth needs to be on a t-shirt? Reply and tell me.





"EMPATHY IS NOT A SIN"
I’d definitely wear an orange cotton tee or ball cap stating
