Neo-Nazis tricked by T-shirt that changed message after it was washedhttp://thenextweb.com/shareables/2011/08/10/neo-nazis-tricked-by-t-shirt-that-changed-message-after-it-was-washed/ Attendees at a nationalist, right-wing concert in Germany were duped into wearing souvenir T-shirts that at first bore a pro-nationalist stance and symbology but later revealed an anti-far right message offering assistance after they had been washed.
The t-shirts originally read ?hardcore rebels? and sported a skull and nationalist flags. However, once the garment had been washed, the shirt revealed a new message that offered to help far-right extremists break away from the neo-Nazi scene.
The message reads:
?If your t-shirt can do it, you can do it too ? we?ll help you get away from right-wing extremism.?
The t-shirts were handed out to around 250 at a ?Rock for Germany? concert in Gera by organisers, who received them anonymously. The group that provided them was EXIT, a help group that assists individuals that wish to break away from far-right collectives.
The organisers were unhappy at the stunt, branding it a waste of money. Bernd Wagner, EXIT?s founder, said the shirts did what they were meant to do; reach right-wing extremists contemplating getting away.
