Don't Be A Sucker, Okay?


Since the early 1800s, the "OKAY" gesture increasingly became associated with the word “okay” and its abbreviation “ok.”

In 2017, the “okay” hand gesture acquired a new and different significance thanks to a hoax by members of the website 4chan to falsely promote the gesture as a hate symbol, claiming that the gesture represented the letters “wp,” for “white power.” The “okay” gesture hoax was merely the latest in a series of similar 4chan hoaxes using various innocuous symbols; in each case, the hoaxers hoped that the media and liberals would overreact by condemning a common image as white supremacist.

This information gathered from anti-defamation league.

Don't let yourself get sucked into every silly thing that comes down the pike. OKAY?

Your thoughts?

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”

It's been used for nearly 2,400 years and essential to deep sea divers who are now using their own gesture to 4chan cretins - two fingers!

By the way, in a free society you have the right to hate anyone you want, and for any reason.
