The pattern where one defines something *at the expense* of another
has a bad smell because it ends up making the former look like a
jackass.
For example:
GNU/FSF -> Microsoft.
Java -> C++
Pascal -> C
Lisp -> Scheme
Each of these rightfully stands on their own without the ill-will and
meanness of their communities.
Certainly I don't pick up any such thing regarding this t-shirt; but I
don't expect that to be the case from outsiders looking in.
