Awaiting a Democratic Hong Kong

A little known fact except among my friends is the "Democracy Hardcore" line was originally designed for protester turned legislator, my favorite political "performance artist", thorn on the backside to my ineffectual and shrinking bone government Mr. Leung Kwok Hung (aka Long hair) in mind.

Here is a picture of him wearing one.

I will be working on the next edition of designs.

The Second series will focus more on different aspects of Hong Kong politics with an expanded number of artists.

Thank you for all your support. (since I am still making the orders. If you’re totally a last minute person I can squish you in until Oct 10th. Anything after will be shipped in Late November 2005.)

Here is a list of the Democracy Hardcore Project Sponsors

  2. Considering that everyone can go into his offices each week, you should sell t-shirts at his offices in Kowloon.
    That way you can corner the market on his constituency.
    Hell, you might even help him raise money for his communist ideas.

  4. I sure think you should throw down some if only for the fact I take so much abuse from you.
    Support my art otherwise (god forbid) I will have to find a full time job in an office again that will suck up all my creativity until I can’t do art, can’t make points until I am a slathering idiot on the verge of a nervous breakdown and you will have to find another victim to your cynism and confusing points.
    And that person might not be as amusing as i.
    In fact for that fact you should buy two!!!

  5. No thanks, I’m not interested in the t-shirts. But that’s not saying they’re bad. Just don’nt really care about t-shirts for democracy.
    And if I’m abusing you through comments, what are you doing when you rail against people you disagree with?
