Amazing point. Kudos to you. You're the first person to mention that.
Who was this guy playing that game with?

I'm not making up anything nor did I say white supremacists use it maliciously. And in this particular case it does look bad/malicious and I'm glad Universal took action, I was just making an observation that a vast majority of the time people aren't using it in bad taste.

If I were to speculate I'd say he won the game against all posters in this thread myself included.
Why the hell would I go to 4chan? I'm not going to change their minds or anything.4Chan and other hiding holes are right there for you to have a talk with them. I'd love to see some of those in here complaining and trying to defend or hand wave this actually go over there and try to finger wag them for a change.
Seems a bit extreme if it was just a one-time thing. Did this guy have a history of flashing the sign?
Are you sure the photographer didn't ask a question and they're actually providing a show of hands?
off to clowncel collegiate
Some people in this thread are arguing against a nonexistent opinion.
No one here said that the ok hand is a hate symbol regardless of context. No one here posted that the symbol is unusable.
Yet I'm seeing folks post stuff like "I remember when it wasn't malicious! Why are we giving our symbols to fascists? I still use it and I'm not calling for an ethnostate!"
Like Slayven said, it's all about context.
It's been a hate symbol even during chartlotsvill where American nazi's conducted torch night march, chanting "Jews will not replace us" and "blood and soil". Shit is not hidden or new neither is the idea that good faith people are going to go Fash because people were mean to them for defending/running interference for fascist bullshit. They were not good faith if they are that close to becoming a white supremacy dickhead.Y'all are literally playing into the alt rights plans with this shit it's actually ridiculous.
While you shit talk and put on blast anyone who questions this type of thing they're going to point at us and say "see this is why these liberal cucks are blah blah blah".
This is the problem with people who consider themselves so woke. You're not going to win hearts and minds, change behavior, or have a positive effect on anyone when your first reaction is to immediately get pissed when people don't know a hate symbol that literally just became a hate symbol.
Who is he? I just want to make sure he's not working at the Chuck E Cheese that I take my kids to.
On April 9th, 2015, conservative Viner Pizza Party Ben[1] posted a video of himself making an OK hand gesture while saying "We should chill" with the description "White guys be like" (shown below, left). Sometime during the 2016 United States presidential election, Pizza Party Ben and Milo Yiannopoulos began making the gesture together at various events supporting the candidacy of Donald Trump.Wasn't this used as part of the circle game, where if you look at it, you get a charlie horse? When did racist fucks steal a childs game?!
So I'm a racist now? Well, according to the random asshat on the street last week I am, but I also didn't give him any handout change when he asked for it.Lol ain't no one tossing out the "OK" symbol like that but stealth racists
It's a racist symbol. It's been classified as such regardless if you had to google it beforehand.

4 Chan then ran a hoax operation to link the ok hand symbol to white supremacy to troll the media in 2017... after it had already been used by white power types in their support of white power candidate Donald trump two years prior.
this is what I came here for.
Why would you say "ok" in a photo anyways? it doesn't even make sense. Somehow people on this forum still shock me.
That's not official Disney merchandise.apparently Micky is racist too and this girl is advertising for the alt right....or not.
Yes.Really? The "OK" symbol is as wildly considered racist as Nazi symbolism now?
That's not official Disney merchandise.
