Clowns are Government Propaganda T-Shirt

Clowns aren’t just creepy birthday entertainment—they’re government-issued decoys. Every time something drastic is happening in the world, boom: suddenly there’s a clown popping up in your face like a jump scare at Chuck E. Cheese. They’re basically the red-nosed, floppy-shoed version of “look over here while we pull the strings over there.” It’s like the comic book trick—sales are tanking? Just throw a monkey on the cover, numbers go up. Doesn’t matter if the inside story is the literary equivalent of soggy cornflakes—people see the monkey and buy it. Clowns work the same way. Doesn’t matter if the world’s ending, the economy’s crashing, or aliens are breakdancing on the White House lawn. Roll out a clown, and suddenly the headlines shift. And me? I’ll always put clowns in the monster-light they deserve. If a design looks too calm, too normal, too safe? Torch it up with a burning clown. Nothing says truth hidden in plain sight like a honking nose melting off in the fire. My nod to They Live—but with more balloons, more grease paint, and way less happiness. Because let’s be real: you can’t spell “propaganda” without “ganda”… which sounds suspiciously like “gander.” As in “take a gander at this clown while we pick your pocket.” Coincidence? I think not.
