Farmer sued for making t-shirts

Feels like this is one of those situations where you’re in the right but the effort/risk required to solve the problem is massive compared to the reward. I’d fight on principle, but wouldn’t fault anyone who moved on.

Person B ("that guy") doesn't have a valid trademark and would indeed risk it begin invalidated if he sued. Farmer A can, and should, ignore this shit and continue to make his shirts, should in fact file for his own trademark and start proceeding to invalidate the fraudulent one.

Or stop griping.

Not sued and honestly deserved it... You want to eat meat fine. I'm not a vegan.

It's moronic to try and show modern day beef and dairy production as "natural" in any way. These hormone pumped pollution machines are the most vile things ever. Miles away from a farm you can't breath from the stench.

Is this a story that is truly interesting?

Farmer A uses existing band trademark (Rage Against the Machine) to further his goals attacking plant-based burgers.

Another farmer (farmer B) trademarks the same thing, then forces Farmer A to stop using that slogan.

This.. just seems like a squabble between two random people. He didn't even get sued by the band.

FWIW, home-made impossible meat burritos are delicious.

The farmer was not sued

The case here seems pretty obvious: the farmer wanted to piggyback on the fame of certian rock band, with his slogan "Graze against the machine". If you want T-Shirts to be your own creation write your own goddamn catchphrase.
