I mean the retards literally thinking the OK sign is racist... so did they just give the neo-nazis the power to turn literally any hand sign into a nazi symbol? If they start posing with the peace sign, or a thumbs up, are those now no longer allowed?

That's the thing, left-oriented people have an almost fetish-like predisposition toward giving up ground. They will happily accommodate. I think there's a popular phrase in recent times to describe it ๐ค

Historically and logically, that's exactly how it works, though.
If a bunch of racists start jokingly giving each other the ok sign as a way of self-identifying as racist within their in-group, it does, in fact, become a racist gesture and will eventually be deemed socially unacceptable.
Before Nazis existed, American schoolkids were taught to use the Roman/Bellamy salute during the pledge of allegiance. Nazis and Italian fascists started to use it to identify themselves, so Congress passed a law telling the kids to start putting their hand over their heart instead and now the Roman/Bellamy salute is just called the Nazi salute and people using it are universally recognized as Nazis. It didn't have anything to do with fascism until the fascists started using it, but became the ultimate symbol of fascism by virtue of its use.
The response to these retarded alt-right kiddies using the ok sign as a self-identifier shouldn't be "normies are stupid for thinking the ok sign is racist"; it should be "edgelords are stupid for turning the ok sign into something racist."
EDIT: Disclaimer. This is not native advertising. Bank of America is a racist, redlining, predatory-lending, family-evicting pack of jackals. This was a genuine question I asked in good faith and did not expect to get huge like this.
Looks he got some flack from his fellow tankies by sounding like some shilling capitalist pig, so he had to quickly google up some articles.
The "troll" excuse never made sense. The "trolls" who came up with the hand sign did so from 4chan /pol/, a board notoriously full of racists. So racists created and propagated this "troll." The only people doing it would be racists.
How exactly would you be trolling people by using this sign? "Damn dude, I made that person think another white boy was racist. Fucking gottem'. How could they possibly believe that a mayo is a white supremacist? Get trolled dumbass."
Itโs just funny seeing people freak out over innocuous hand signs. The point isnโt to trick people into thinking youโre a racist or whatever the hell youโre saying. Imagine the thumbs up becoming a new white supremacist hate symbol. These memes would be completely ineffective if libs didnโt keep taking the bait.
Youโre freaking out. You came into a thread making fun of you and proceeded to do exactly what weโre mocking you for. Sane, calm people do not do that.
How does one look like a conspiratard by saying people who pose in group photos doing this hand signal are racists? Doing this sign in pictures as not at all popular before being propagated by racists and it still isn't popular now. So the people doing it now are...surprise, racists. Who learned it from, surprise...racists.
Are we just pretending that losers on the internet who are dedicated to "triggering the libs" have politics dedicated to ending white supremacy and therefore are totally not racists?
I didn't say anyone using the OK hand sign. There are contexts where it's obviously done by racists and there are contexts where it isn't. Pretty easy to identify reactionary retards doing the OK sign for the camera. Maybe burn your strawman instead of the cross.
But the racists and neonazis also believed 4chan so now they use the ok hand sign to signal their affiliations. So there are three types of people using ok: le epic trolls, racists, and someone casually saying okay.
If you see a picture of 10 white dudes flashing the okay sign you know these are the racists. A) 4chan trolls don't have friends to take a picture with B) no one using an innocuous sign would stand there with 9 other people making the same sign and take a picture of it for no reason.
Wow really needed that explanation. Otherwise I might have made the sign and it would have acted as a vector for Nazi meme magic and magically transform me into a Nazi.
I'm actually really disappointed so far with this shit. I want rightoids and natzeees to start using ๐and other normal innocuous shit and I really thought that's where they were going with it after the okay sign.
Posing for photographs with a ๐ is only racist if you're part of a group of young white men who are all flashing it to take a picture.
Having a handkerchief in your back pocket isn't gay. But having it visible back there while you walk around a bar filled with men is super fucking gay.
The thing is...if a bunch of racists start giving each other the ok sign, it does, in fact, become a racist gesture.
Nazis and Italian fascists didn't invent the Roman salute, but they all started to use it, so now it's just called the Nazi salute and people using it are universally recognized as Nazis. Right?
