Short explanation

We produced 250 T-shirts for Exit bearing the slogan: 'Hardcore rebels. National and free.' We
used an assumed identity to supply them to the organiser of Europe's biggest right-wing rock
festival in Gera (Germany), who then distributed the shirts among festival-goers on 6 August
2011.
A surprise then awaited the rightists back home. The T-shirts had been primed with a print that
washed off. After just one wash, they said: 'If your T-shirt can do it, so can you. We can help
you to get free of right-wing extremism. Exit Deutschland.' This triggered a tremendous
discussion among rightists.
