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?

The ADL are retards. I'm going to keep using this symbol I rightly don't give a fuck what a bunch of freedom hating crybaby commies think about it. 😂👌 Leftoids fucking disgust me. Worse than nazis.

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

@SW-User In fairness 9660, I would normally agree with you about the ADL, but their article was more of a warning.

But, Leftoids disgust me too! 🤪

@Budwick These are the same imbeciles who tried to get PewDiePie to donate money to them for saying things they didn't like. Jonathan Greenblatt is pond scum.

@SW-User Boo hoo. Cry me a river you stupid fuck. Communism killed more than 100 million people last century though starvation and mass executions. They are objectively worse.

@SW-User Where did I defend nazis? Because I didn't. But there are no nazis running around promoting Hitler's works on college campuses like leftoids do with communism and the works of Marx. Neo nazis are a fringe movement that has no power and never will. Meanwhile half the government is run by marxist little twats who would view Stalin as far right. Get the fuck out of here, you dumb boomer.
