I have a Tom Morello shirt that says
Nazi
\ Lives
\ Don’t
\ Matter
Guess what shows up in the zoom?
- i have a shirt with a portrait of hitler. guess what it says on a zoom call /j obviously
  
  "Charlie Chaplin"
- Nazis live?

Even with the crop it should not be much of a problem, simply because actual transphobes don't call themselves as such
- True but please don't give them the idea. They will do it.
  
  At least it would be them finally admitting they're scared for whatever reason.
- There are probably equal numbers of racists that do and don’t call themselves racist though.
  
  Where's that image of the Republican convention calling themselves domestic terrorists...
  
  Some people even go so far and call themselves fascists, but I guess calling yourself a trans- or homophobe would imply you're scared of something and the fragile fascist mind can't have that.

Love Demi, one of the best of the Dropout crew
- I didn't know he was on there! I saw the pic and immediately recognized him from his Sep 21 Videos.
  
  Wait is that the same guy?! I did not realise that but totally see it now. Love him.
- Dropout mentioned! One of the funniest for sure.
- Yes. He’s been a great addition

Wearing graphic tees on an important work call
- What's wrong with that? Not everyone works in corporate.
  
  Tee shirts do not telegraph "I'm taking this seriously".
  Eta Lots of people don't like questions getting answers in here, I see.
- Seems like a safe move when this is your CEO:

- That’s why I have several plain white and black shirts that I rotate throughout the week for video meetings, so I look the same every time. If someone takes a screenshot, you won’t be able to tell what day it was just by looking at what I was wearing.
  
  Sounds like you could narrow it down by half. Must have been a white tee day, they'll say.
- Dress for the job you want!
  
  I tried that, I still have the Spider-man costume

I don't think it would be that bad, transphobes don't usually use the word transphobia

I'd like to just go into the middle of a busy street and hold up a sign that says "TRANSPHOBIA" and nothing else. Would be interesting to see if anyone got upset lol

Yikies

Isn’t this the dude who wrote the rejected Ready Player One theme song?

Fun, metalheads have the opposite happening. Can risk the inappropriate t shirt on web meets, because squiggly letters aren't offensive... But the gore isn't acceptable irl.

Sadly I’m sure there are employers where having this shirt would be a violation of “non-political attire.” Like Google getting rid of their “don’t be evil” slogan

I miss his September 21st videos 😔
- Oh shit, i loved those videos, but i never realised it was Demi.
- Holy shit. What a callback. I never knew that was him
