I was reading a post about the midshipmen who gave the okay sign and were labeled as racist. What got my attention was the one who said, “We didn’t know it was a racist sign.” Or something to that effect. The reason they didn’t know it was a racist sign was because it isn’t a racist sign.
Just because the social justice warriors say something is, does not mean it is. In fact the truth is probably the opposite. Social justice warriors have a prime goal of destroying Western culture in general and America specifically. Anything they can do or say to make you back up and throw you off balance is a real plus.
So feel free to signal okay with your circled fingers. It is a time honored way of non-verbal communication. The use as a game was a regular feature in the middle school that employed me and there were few white students on campus. OK knows no boundaries. If anyone has a problem then the proper response might be to close your hand and only extend one finger toward them. I would not do it but it would certainly communicate something they need to understand.
“Racist sign”. What a bunch of (explicative deleted), piled high and smelling strong.
