Another police shooting - this time in Wisconsin... (1 Viewer)

I just can't take anyone seriously who believes the brilliant 4-chan troll of branding the "ok" hand sign as a symbol of white supremacy. They did it as a troll and the dummy media ran with it. 4-chan has done this for years to illustrate just how dumb the media is. They take something simple and write a bunch of BS about how that is racist and laugh at the media outlets that run with it. This wasn't the first time 4-chan did that, they did it to pepe the frog as well, wrote an entire bs thing about that meme years and years ago. I'm not an avid reader of the Chan boards but even I know at the heart of them, its a bunch of internet trolls that get off by doing stupid things like that.

Asheligh Banfield of news nation interviewed Rittenhouse for an hour last night. She grilled him pretty hard about this proud boy incident. Rittenhouse claims he didn't know they were proud boys and the whole thing was setup under the guise of hiring security for him under previous lawyers, Lin Wood and John Pierce. He fired the two lawyers after finding out they were spreading conspiracy theories about the election and Qanon stuff. He claims had he known those were proud boys he would have never agreed to be there and doesn't support them.
Yes, like many of the 4chan racist, incel, xenophobic ‘platforms’ started as jokes
and then they took on a life of their own and became real
 
TIL that the ok symbol is now racist. I honestly didn't know that, guess thats what happens when you move to Europe.
It is mostly used now by people trying to troll people who think it's racist.

To me, if they are doing it because they know people think it's racist, there really isn't any difference.

The Swastika wasn't always a symbol of racism, but now it will forever be.
 
Are we really investing time in litigating the OK symbol for the 4,713th time? I'd rather watch paint dry. It's more intellectually stimulating and at least there's a conclusion to it.
 
demonizing a child that now has to live with the weight of those deaths is no different.

Somehow I can't take this post seriously.

The point of the backlash against the Rittenhouse shootings wasn't about white nationalism - it was treatment by race. In a world where a black kid with a toy gun is killed by police very swiftly, a white dude can drive down a street, kill 2 folks, seriously injure one..and is treated like royalty from police and even the judge in his case.

That 'child' went looking for a fight into a town he wasn't even a resident of.
 
It may have started that way as a joke but isn’t it possible it became legit at some point?

Wasn’t the swastika an ancient Chinese symbol meaning peace or something like that?

At some point the meaning of gay changed from simply happy to homosexual
But see . . . I grew up using the OK hand symbol. So now I will be labeled if I inadvertently use it for OK? I think it is possible it might have become a legit w power for some morons in society - and for those who want to see racism everywhere - but not everyone.

It doesn't deserve to be taken seriously....

What town he's from is really irrelevant though.

Both black, both fired on police, both not guilty becasue of self defense. These were not toy guns though, so not sure if that had a part to play the guys getting off on self defense.

So maybe the media coverage had to do with the 'white nationalist' false narrative?
