Shut up. He was clearly using the new white supremacist hand gesture.

That's actually why alt-righters started using the symbol, because Trump always does it when he talks and it's innocuous.

Pretty much this, though it's not exclusive to the alt-right. The entire right uses it.


Yes, because the right (at least in America) is becoming more radicalized over time, to where the norm is now this.

Trump becoming elected president emboldened many of these people.

Obviously there are contexts where the OK symbol is fine. This is not one of them, and it should be impossible for a president who is perhaps more active online than IRL to NOT be very aware of the messages his gestures and body language sends, and what mentality it reinforces.

The OK symbol reversed is basically a Q.

Trump sending us reassurance comrades under the Deep State's giant noses. #TheStorm

Or maybe he knows that people who think it's a racist symbol are the most gullible people on the planet.

How many people does it take to corrupt something, I wonder. If we see, say, 25 stories about white supremacists giving the thumbs up, is it now a white supremacist sign? 30? 40? I wonder what the magic number is.

This simply did not happen. It was a funny anecdote in one article, and the people who have ran with it the most are conservatives using it as shorthand for hyperbolic coverage.

"Serious attention" such as being the ending of Erin Burnett's show when they usually end with more joking and sarcastic clips with that one woman? Because other than that I don't ever remember it being a thing. Surely you have other examples and aren't just making shit up, right?
