The Chicago Cubs has BANNED an anonymous fan leaned over to the camera and flashed the WHITE POWER SIGN behind an african american field reporter during Tuesday's game at Wrigley Field!!

The cubs sent a letter to the bearded jello who flashed the offensive sign in the back of former Cubs outfielder Doug Glanville who was working for NBC Sports. The team wasn't able to contact him by phone and didn't publicly identify him.

Crane Kenney, the President of Business Operations said the fan could be PROSECUTED if he steps foot in their stadium again

Julian Green, a spokesman said "The individual responsible will not be welcome back at Wrigley Field"

The man purchased his ticket on StubHub as another fan reported the gesture to the team by text and by the time a security guard arrived, the man was eliminated

The gesture is associated with the juvenile "circle game" where someone makes a circle with their index finger and thumb and holds it below their waist. If they can trick a friend or sibling into looking at it, they can punch the person in the shoulder

The gesture however is now associated with white supremacy after 4chan freaks and white supremacist groups have used the symbol to show who they are around the world.

Green said however that it doesn't matter either way as it was bad judgement on that fan's part and said whether sophomoric behaviour or some other stunt to use in connection with a respected journalist who happens to be african american was ignorant..

The decision sparked debate as some argued it was racist and others said he was just playing the circle game

Former Baseball Fatty Curt Schilling is one of the most vocal on the ban calling it outrageous

President of Baseball Operations Theo Epstein called the gesture "truly disgusting" and said it gaev him shivers to watch that

Do you honestly believe this anonymous neckbeard was playing the "circle game"?

I hate when people try to push this narrative, when white supremacists keep constantly doing it in pictures.

They do it in pictures because people like you keep pushing this narrative and they know they will piss you off. So congrats on giving racist more power to harass people. It's like that dude in this topic that put a crying baby picture in my post. I didn't respond to it because he isn't worth responding to. Your reaction to this made up bs legitimizes it.

They're still doing it and reinforcing the idea that it has a racist connotation behind it. Stop defending racists, it's a bad look.

I hate when people try to push this narrative, when white supremacists keep constantly doing it in pictures. I get that it was originally linked to the circle game (I'm sure everyone remembers this as a kid), and other people used it to mean okay like this emoji , but at the end of the day, a bunch of racists decided to adopt it as their thing and they're the only ones who try to push the "iT's JuSt A mEmE" bullshit. These guys are the ones who gave it new meaning, and keep using it, so that just doesn't fly.

I disagree with this logic.

If Islamic terrorists adopted pizza as the symbol of their movement and loads of terrorists started eating pizzas and leaving pizzas at their terrorist attack crime scenes... I don't give a fuck

I'm still eating pizza.

Going "Well some racist people did this so now no one gets to do it apart from them!" is insane.

Wasn't raising your fist an icon of the Black Power movement?

Does that mean no one gets to raise their fists?

Fuck that logic, fuck 4chan. If you want to do a stupid Ok hand gesture you go out there and do the best Ok hand gesture you can. Stop rolling over and giving it to idiots

I think people will start realizing that you can troll online, but you cant troll in person. Cuz let's be honest this guy was trying to troll on camera. I view this more as a trolling symbol now than an actual racist one.

That makes zero sense. A racist getting banned from a stadium is no skin off a SJW's bones.

Uh I think you misread that post because I'm not arguing that, unless you are also agreeing with me and just adding to it. Or missed the sarcasm I thought would be obvious by also including a comment about chess moves

Option 1: guy is racist and doing the white supremacy sign = him getting screwed over for being edgy and his 4chan ilk taking another L

Option 2: guy isn't racist and is just doing that punching game = 4chan helped get someone out of the loop banned for life from a stadium...to somehow stick it to the libs in some unexplainable way

So yeah it is a lose-lose situation for them

They have to convince themselves SJWs and liberals are STEAMED whenever one of these dopes exposes themselves, otherwise, theyd be forced to reckon with fact that at best, these people are rubes who we're all laughing at

If you watch the video, the guy is trying different things like the peace sign and he's trying to see what's coming up on the screen. Then he starts the circle below his waist and then brings it up. Looks like he was just doing the circle game gesture.
