For that matter, what kind of jerk-off company sells it? Urban Outfitters, that’s who. A company that thrives on ginning up controversy; you can read their rap sheet here. A company whose billionaire founder is a big rightwing fan of Rick Santorum. If you’re interested, you can read about his labor practices here.
Anyway, not to be outdone in the “who can we offend today” department, Urban Outfitters has come out with a new tapestry cloth designed to remind us of the Nazis’ mass murder of the Jews, in case we forgot. Gas chambers are now a fashion item.
Kinda reminds me of a certain pop singer who draws attention to himself and gets free publicity by being arrested at least once every week.
Photos: A sweatshirt with fake bloodstains mocking the four students killed by National Guardsmen at Kent State; a fabric mocking the six million Jews murdered by the Nazis. Both of these marketing atrocities are brought to you by Urban Outfitters.
