Is saying you are the first of something a diss to the others? I think not.

No more than asking why would someone want to join the other three orgs over SGR (the implied message).

The use of the colors of the other orgs were done respectfully in that for each org, the correct colors were used. And I might add, the orgs were listed in the order of each being founded.

. Did the siggy involve the misuse of the other orgs' symbols. No not at all.

Neither did the shirt involve the misuse of the other org's symbols. They were printed on the back of the shirt as it would be if the shirt was a greek unity / pan-hel shirt.
The diss in the shirt is because of the statement at the bottom which implies why join the other groups when you have another choice. If you don't want people to realize that there is another choice other than your org, then yeah, you may feel dissed.
The siggy can imply that the other three org's existance came from AKA. Which, yes, it may not be a diss, but as for me and my org, I feel that the implication is incorrect because SGR was not born out of AKA. DST was. So for me, AKA is not the 'genesis' of SGR. I could feel dissed by the siggy, but I don't. I know what the siggy is saying - AKA was the first historically and the others followed. I get that.
You all are reading the shirt as a diss, which it kinda is. I could interpret the siggy as a diss because to me it is impling something that is not entirely true from my standpoint.
All my comparison was about was that different people can read different things from the same message.
