Shalom, Motherfucker.

Eitan Chitayat first wrote those words more than a decade ago in response to a friend whose anti-Israel rhetoric crossed into something darker. It became the title of an open letter about antisemitism, double standards, and what happens when the people you expect to stand beside you simply don’t.

The words stuck.

The Shalom Motherfucker T-Shirt carries that original sentiment forward: part boundary, part dismissal, and a refusal to stay quiet when being Jewish comes with someone else’s conditions.

Sometimes shalom means hello. Sometimes it means goodbye.
