     The quote I most want on a t-shirt is from Iain Banks:

     > "Fuck every cause that ends in murder and children crying."

     @jackwilliambell @pluralistic I want to get this printed out on a card, go back to the spectacularly anglo and bigoted suburb where I was raised, and stand on the corner handing it out to everyone who passes (or more productively standing in the middle of the road flinging them into every open car window that passes - nobody walks), until I'm lynched:

     'Maybe the word that upsets me most is the word “we” — if you use the word “we,” and you’re not talking about eight billion people, fuck you.'

     Cory Doctorow repeated this.
