What is this "white power sign"? Never heard of it.

[dp0622]

You hold up a big sign that says “white power” :)

Other than that, I have no idea.

And people here are really worried about taking GA so biden can’t run roughshod if he takes office.

If he takes office, then a COUP was successful and who the hell cares about the complicit Rs holding the senate.

Now we are beggars hoping they’ll let us win a seat in GA??

#### that.

I’d rather be dead.

Liberalism is a mental disorder (to quote the great El Rushbo).

However, I’ve never seen anyone hold up 3 fingers like that. Must be new math. LOL

[Texas Eagle]

Kind of a weird way to hold up three fingers. Wouldn’t most people put their thumb over their pinkie and hold up the other three fingers?

[12chachacha]

This crap is all over Reddit

Black Power Matters.

[Texas Eagle]

I don't do the twitter. Can somebody tweet this in her general direction?

[MrBambaLaMamba]

White power sign? I thought that was the shocker.

[heartwood]

That’s what I was thinking, doesn’t feel right holding the index down instead of the pinkie.

[Viking2002]

I can’t flash the Boy Scout salute anymore because the arthritis in my hands is getting bad. But I still can flash a pretty nimble New York State Bird. Uppa U, Debbie-Poo!

Re: 11

I think the reference was to the former KKK's Grand Cyclopes (or whatever was his title) that was holding Biden's hand. Not so much the 'white power' fist salute.

this from the woman who started her acting debut with a racist white supremacist girl dating jerry on seinfeld

Who gives a damn what this twit has to say on Twitter? Why is this crap worth bandwidth on FreeRepublic? No one who cares about her tweet will ever vote for the guy and no one who will vote for the guy gives a damn.

[the OlLine Rebel]

Yes, definitely when indicating numbers.

But see the pseudo-OK signs flashed In the pix following your post.

[Texas Eagle]

Yeah, the OK sign I understand. But that is a weird way to indicate the number three.

[the OlLine Rebel]

This garbage started a couple years ago.

Basically we have now been advised the traditional “OK” sign 👌 is a secret white-supremacist symbol.

I never knew it before they told us all.

Supposedly it started because Trump uses hand motions a lot including the OK sign. Since Trump is racist, that symbol must be racist.

[Olog-hai]

AFAICR this started as a 4chan troll where they wanted to see how many people could fall for the Big Lie of the okay sign being a “white power” sign, with the three extended fingers supposedly represent the W in “white” and the O formed by the index finger and thumb suddenly becomes a P for “power” by adding in the rest of the hand and the wrist.
