Comrades,

Have you ever had the urge to be an erudite protester and shout, "Davai, Brandon, Davai!" in the Mother Tongue? Then purchase this product and wear it proudly on the train ride to the land of permafrost.
If this product does not align with your political views, and of course it wouldn't, then buy it for your conservative neighbor to make him easier to spot and denounce.
For the comrades...

...the People's Dry Goods Store (located behind Tractor Barn #2) has many styles and colors available in t-shirts, tank-tops, and hoodies.

Can this t-shirt be pronounced with a Texazistanian accent, and still be intelligible?

Google Translate recommends, "D'vai, Brannin, D'vai!" It still transliterates well enough for a Southerner from Siberia to understand.

LGB is an American colloquial phrase that defies an exact translation into foreign languages. Давай Брэндон is reasonably close and arguably close enough, but there are other ways to translate it that won't necessarily carry the same impact.

Google Translate, BTW, is a rough tool; like using a stone knife when you need a scalpel.

Best Wishes to All,

GT is good if you don't mind sounding like Tarzan to a foreigner.
