So Supreme decided to release a Japanese benefit shirt

Are we going to continue pretending the rising sun flag isn't offensive to millions of people ?

How is that offensive? It may be offensive to others, but it has important symbology in Japanese culture in a positive way.

As a DJ who is donating time & services to help in the efforts for Japan,  I don't see anything wrong with what Supreme is doing with the pricing of this shirt. The proceeds are obviously going to a good cause. So if you can't afford the $100 price tag, then there is no need to be salty and !!%% on the idea...

Im kinda with Method Man here. It's like people buying TOMS, do they really do it cuz one pair of much less quality shoes will be sent to Africa? Or just cuz they're a trend. You could buy a Supreme tee, or pay half that price and probably still actually be donating more money to Japan

I wasn't gonna say anything, but I personally would NEVER wear anything with that flag on it. I am Korean and that flag carries the connotation of Japanese imperialism and oppression. Kind of like the Confederate flag.

The nazi flag and confederate flag are also important symbols in various cultures.

Its the military flag of Japan and to China and Korea, who endured countless atrocities during WW2 by the Japanese, it represents imperialism and military aggression.
