"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Russian Companies Troll UK Propaganda With Novichok Merchandise
"Russian companies are selling sick joke 'Novichok' products despite outrage at the death of a British mother exposed to the nerve agent. The latest item is a £22 T-shirt made by Moscow company Spare Skin, which promises buyers they can expect 'the love of beautiful women', 'brutality in the eye' and an 'exclusive and cool T-shirt'. The company said: 'When we posted the design of the Novichok on Behance (social network for designers), we got a huge number of negative reactions. But at what speed are these T-shirts selling now.' Novichok - the name of a lethal and illegal chemical weapon designed in Soviet times - is also being used as the name of a craft beer, a vodka, a brand of coffee, a cocktail in Volgograd, and vegetable oil."
