So the stupid of the world do not understand that the finger circle is the o of the word ok and the three potstretched remaining fingers represent the letter k?

Actually I think they just make things up in order to bully people

Ignore and laugh at them

Any lawyer who takes a case like this should be disbarred, and any judge that would hear such a case should be ‘defrocked’ and then disbarred.

universally-known and universally-used hate symbol that indicates white power

The defense just needs to pick a random group off the street for a focus group, then individually show them different symbols and asked them what they mean.

I would bet that 90%+ would identify the OK symbol as meaning "OK".

Two families sued Universal Orlando for $30,000 after an actor dressed as the Disney character 'Gru' flashed a white-power hand gesture in two separate photos with young girls of color.

Guess this is what confused me.

Thanks for your kind reply, though.

No, no, no! Eddie Murphy’s Buckwheat would be indicating OTAY, not OK…

Why is it that the “OK” sign has to be *presumed* to be a racist symbol when it could very well just mean “okay”. I still use it. After 60 years, habits can be hard to break.

They (liberals) didn’t make this up. A group on Reddit or 8chan made it up as a prank to troll liberals.

The leftist media swallowed it hook line and sinker.

I don't recall a class action lawsuit against the producers of the 2009 movie, 2012, for Danny Glover's egregious act (see screenshot below).

Jeez, I use the OK sign when my co workers ask me a question and I’m busy running the mower. I guess I should give some of the homeowners their money back since I use the OK hand sign on black, Asians and Hispanic property. I might have to triple the cost for WHITE HOMEOWNERS!! 😀

Is it a prank, or a leftist tool to harm the right?

This 4chan hoax (”Operation O-KKK”) was so useful to the left that they decided it should be treated as real.
