I wonder if the poor legibility is part of the point. I would not wear an outrageous t-shirt such as this in public, but I would be even less likely to wear a more legible version — precisely because more people would be able to read it. Poor legibility may evoke curiosity in some people who are too far to read it, and perhaps even result in a humorous surprise when someone who could not originally read the text moves close enough to read it.
Smaller text feels like a whisper, and maybe that's the effect the designer was going for
I'd be surprised if it was intentional. It's just poorly designed, likely because whoever made it doesn't know to use Photoshop or Gimp or such.
The sentence is fun and makes for a fun shirt print. Just needs a bit of work.
