Pretty appalling advert then as I didn't even notice the t-shirts. And even now watching it I don't see anywhere saying they're for sale (Nor in the lengthy description on YouTube, you need to go to the web site. And if you're trying to sell something being so gratuitously offensive that many people will turn off/close the window before they even see the t-shirts isn't going to sell many of them.

I wouldn't disagree.

But, fact is, "FCKH8" is a for-profit T-shirt company and, as the other videos showed, they chase controversies as-they-happen - the Ferguson riots, same-sex marriage votes, cyber-bullying, #gamergate, etc. - with their angry T-shirts and accompanying "fuck"-filled videos.

(I guess the issue with this video was that the little girls had to be dressed up as pretty pink princesses to make their point about sexist expectations and attitudes, but that meant they couldn't actually be wearing the shirts, to overtly promote them. So others appear towards the end to prominently wear the shirts instead. Their other videos don't have this problem and everybody's wearing the shirts throughout.)

Watch it to the end as well, because the "$15 T-shirts" thing appears towards the end. Though, yes, it flashes past almost subliminally quickly.

It is a good question to wonder how much of what they do is well-intentioned naivety and how much is just cynical profiteering. It could well be 100% one or the other, or something in-between. They might not be entirely sure themselves.

Someone has issues. Apparently she apologized the next day, but this is hilarious.

Those high back chairs look very comfortable. Horrible color though!

The video I posted earlier got pulled. Here it is again from the official channel and slightly better quality, "Too Many Cooks".
