i was having a think before- do you think it’s tasteful to do it as the silkroad logo? i think it’s sick and prefer it to the current free ross merch, but i wonder what the freeross.org ppl would think
Discussion
Yeah, I wondered that too. I don't think it should be anything to do with the official campaign, just sending the profits to them.
The logo is already being used by private individuals for their own profit. I just think that profit should be going to a private individual sending it to the campaign instead
yeah that’s true.
i’ll have a look around- im a bit too busy to organise this rn, but i’d be open to setting this up on honeyroad
Yeah totally understand, I'm just putting this out there 🥰 you never know
I also think this sort of merch shouldn't even have the words 'free ross' on the actual merch even. Just the logo.
i think it should tbh
Yeah, maybe, I was conflicted with the aforementioned dilemma and not causing accidental harm to their cause
actually the way their motivation reads is that they don’t really dismiss silkroad itself- maybe it would be fine
i’ll try reach out to them
They don't avoid the topic of SR, they defend it. Ross himself also spoke very strongly about his view that Silk Road was a force for good in society by promoting individual freedom and taking power from the state.
There's absolutely no reason the Free Ross message should be separated from Silk Road and I love the idea of donating the profits to the cause.
