Spreading Democracy T-Shirt — Satirical Retro Cartoon Tee

The official slogan of every coup, every bagman, and every smiling attaché who never officially existed. Rendered on this satirical political t-shirt in the warm, consequence-free aesthetic of a 1930s rubber-hose cartoon—because that is exactly how it was always sold to you. Uncle Sam and the general are both having a great time. The money is very large. Nobody is being recorded.

Wearing this funny retro tee is not an accusation. It is a citation. The phrase is doing exactly what it has always done, describing the precise opposite of what it means. Issued by the Weird Castle Foreign Policy Outreach Division. Budget: classified. Results: also classified.

• ✦ The fine print: no USG officials were harmed in the making of this graphic tee, as none of them were ever officially there
• ✦ Pair this vintage-style cartoon shirt with a concerned press release that never mentions the junta by name
• ✦ Not responsible for any democratic institutions that fail to survive the handshake
• ✦ 100% premium comfortable cotton, unlike the general's medals which are 100% self-awarded
• ✦ Classic unisex fit—perfect for classified briefings or casual regime changes
