The finger-and-thumb OK sign is universally known for meaning everything is all right or approval of something. But the ADL says while not everyone means it to be hateful, the sign has been co-opted by the alt-right.

There is no "would of", "should of" or "could of".

Why is it so hard for people to understand context?

Same reasons if you're a Dem then the Repubs are all evil or if you're a Repub then all Dem are all evil. We need more enlightened centralist like myself that can see the good and bad on both sides and then make a rational decisions.

The irony is that the 4chan meme that started this was explicitly designed to point out how stupid liberals are, and that they can be convinced that anything is a 'hate symbol.'

Liberals know it, but fall for it anyway, 'just in case.'

Thumbs up is already a hate symbol. While the thumb and fingers share a hand, giving a thumbs up is supposed to show they exceptionalism of the thumb. Lots of white supremacists use it to show their belief.
