    Whatever else they may have intended by it, lets not kid ourselves that this is just an OK sign.

    Definitely.

    That is without a doubt, a sign that shows that white supremacists are everywhere.

    End of conversation.

    Oh ok. So racism is perception? It's about feelings. Gotcha.

    The US military has had a problem with racism ever since it existed. You are either being wilfully ignorant or plain stupid to call it simply a matter of perception.

    If you look at groups like White Lives Matter or Patriot prayer, veterans are disproportionately over represented. You’re make little of a very real problem.

    Stupid post as usual. You know well it’s The upside “ok” is what 20c is talking about. I’m sure you’ve read about it on 4chan or wherever you pick up your alt right lingo.

    The upside down ok logo? Jesus. You've lost it. That used to be a thing a couple years ago where if you can get your mate to look at you doing that, means you win the game.

    If that's what you and 20Cent think is a symbol of "THE RISE OF WHITE POWER" then you are either idiots or the people that are nefariously promoting that white power is on the rise.

    Hilarious.

    You refuse to acknowledge the problems right in front of your face and throw out insults instead. Classy.

    We've established that it started on 4Chan as a "joke".
    Explicitly using a common hand gesture because it gives plausible deniability and they know there are lots of photos of almost everyone doing it.
    4Chan is a hive of racism and fascism, go look at /pol/ it certainly is.
    The "joke" then starts being used by Neo-Nazis, Ku Klux Klansmen and other white nationalists. Once they started using it it went beyond an ironic gesture. After the NZ shooter used it I think it was firmly established what the new meaning is.

    Those cadets know all this but did it anyway.
    They are either white supremacists or doing it as a "joke"
    Either way not people who should have guns or positions of leadership or responsibility.

    We used to do that in secondary school in the early 2000's, if someone looked at your hand then you could punch them in the arm. I think it also had to do with "the game" where if you saw the hand gesture then that meant that you thought about "the game" which means you lose "the game".

    Ah yes, more alt right “clever” insults. You could at least exercise your own brain power to come up with something instead of blindly parroting insults you’ve picked up from 4chan.

    You’re not to know this, but the irony of you classifying me as some sort of effeminate weakling is absolutely brilliant.

    You classified yourself like that, Brian. Tho an honest reflection of how you see and feel about yourself sub-consciously, you are not some sort of effeminate weakling. It's sad that you feel like this. It must be tough. There's nothing ironic about that all.

    You love to pretend you’re clever, but there’s nothing clever about this.

    You know full well what the “soy-boy” stereotype used by the alt right is. I know you do because it’s you go to insult for those you disagree with. Then when challenged on it you play the innocent.

    It’s the same modus operandi the alt right love to employ. Nazi salutes- we’re doing it as a joke. Co opting the upside upside down ok symbol- we’re doing it to troll the left.

    It’s infantile. It would be laughable, but it leads too many gullible idiots to the extreme right. Like you.

    I'd be more concerned as to why the British would elect a sexist, homophobic racist as it's political head of state.
    https://www.businessinsider.com/boris-johnson-record-sexist-homophobic-and-racist-comments-bumboys-piccaninnies-2019-6

    I guess people fell for the dopey Bertie Ahern routine.

    I'd like to you thank for being offended on my behalf Matt, but really there was no need, I'm gay and not in the slightest bit offended by this so hysterically labeled 'homophobic' remark.

    Now if you'll excuse me I'm to TK-MAXX to buy yet another tank top. I'm worse than Imelda Marcos and her shoes, I don't know where to put them all.

    God. It's bum boys like this that are ruining it for everyone else that is straight, white and perpetually offended.

    Be offended ffs. You aren't meant to be able to pass off ignorant remarks as nothing except ignorant remarks.

    Cant you see everyone hates you except us? Everyone hates you!!!!! Give power to ridiculous statements.

    We are here to protect you because you aren't as privileged as us folk who look down at you with pity. You can't be expected to protect yourself. Because you know, all you "tank topped bum boys" are a homogenous group and not individuals and us guys have a responsibility to be offended on your behalf.

    I'm not offended nor offended for you. I don't care if you're gay it doesn't make you King of the gays. I said 'concerned', it's in the comment you quoted.

    You right wingers, (I'm assuming) are so paranoid trying to put everyone in the faux outraged, snowflake, (what ever other handy sh*te) category. People are complex.
    It's concerning that an openly racist, homophobic, sexist bigot now represents a nation on the world stage. Don't let my opinion distract you from discussing Johnson, or is it yourself and the dunne prefer playing the man not the ball because it's easier to tackle a made up character of liberal outrage than the realities?

    You just proved my point. I've never once mentioned evil OK signs ever on boards in any thread on any topic.

    You have an idea of what everyone who might disagree with you is about and it's comfortably muddled your thought on these issues.
    Turn your own comment on yourself.

    Ignore that it's a serious issue and make a glib comment. Typically alt right.

    When the likes of Richard Spencer and the Christchurch shooter use it and you still don't accept it as real, there really isn't any hope for you.
