Meanwhile, twenty-nine parents were on record as saying “What, your cards? Those old things? I threw them out years ago, I told you I needed space in that closet for [*]...well, anyways, you didn’t listen!”

Forced to reply on this. As someone living and working in Hong Kong for the last ten years, and for someone who has seen firsthand the disintegration of this city and the outright apathy, if not malice, of some of its citizens as its critics, protestors, and journalists are assaulted, denigrated, and hauled off to…

She should be charged with a crime. You can’t be in a position of responsibility over others’ health (let alone your own child’s!) and be this negligent.

There are an alarming number of nurses buying into crazy conspiracy theories about COVID-19, or who are dismissing it as no big deal. This shit has very real consequences.

If I get a video to go viral that claims making eye contact with someone is a signal of hate, are we not allowed looking at each other anymore?

InB4 this is removed from the movie and the boxed copies price’s skyrocket.

Seeing how racist assholes are getting away with appropiating all these things, we might already give them all the power they want.

It’s not a suspicion, it has been well documented in this very site. The KEK flag, Pepe the Frog, now this...

That’s until the “white supremacists” start using it. Then it will become a hate sign.

Is the history of this still it started on whatevernumberChan as a sort of joke/prank, actual white supremacists somehow picked it up, and now it actually is a symbol of hate?

You’re trolling.  You have to be.  No one is this dumb.  

I hate that we’ve basically given up on reclaiming this signal as “ok” because racist assholes use it. Just a shitty feeling.

Should have left it, but added an audio clip of “Black Lives Matter” every time it’s used.

Far, far, far, (I literally can’t add enough “fars” to this) FAR more people use this signal to simply mean “OK”.

In Canada, we’re a little slow, eh. I still use the “okay” gesture. I can’t help it. I’m the “it’s all good” guy. 

to be that guy, its an essential sign in scuba diving.
Thumbs up is a sign of surfacing, usually if there is an issue. OK is a sign that everything is good.
