alt-right internet types keyed in on coverage of coded white supremacist language, and started promoting various innocuous things as being white supremacist symbols. The OK gesture is one of those. Note this is difficult to generally evaluate with certainty; because of the faux-ironic trolling reality-attacking approach these people use with everything, it's likely that a bunch of them, knowingly or not, do use these fake signifiers as actual white supremacist indicators.

...I guess I should have expected this, but I'm still angry.

How did Garrison react when people kept making his comics into anti-semitic stuff? Like I can't imagine Garrison would be okay with his comics got spun out of his control and warped against his views. I'd probably be having weekly tantrums.

He got incredibly pissy about it, even making a comic or two denouncing it.

Then at some point he just kind gave in and became what the comics were being co-opted into. More or less just turned into mouthpiece for 4chan.

So yeah, not a huge surprise he's a hypocrite. Someone did a good write up on it in imgur, let me find that post...

The irrational anger comes from the fact that it would be so easy and satisfying to dunk on Garrison by appropriating his own intellectual property, yet Garrison has brilliantly played the game 100 moves ahead by refusing to produce a single original thought. Vile... yet brilliant.

I have not heard about this. I had to go look it up. Trump is loving up so hard and so fast the news media can't cover all of it. This has always been the case but this is a new level of loving up.

I thought "dude" was a sixties thing.

Mental Floss posted:

For some time now, we have known the basic outline of the story of “dude.” The word was first used in the late 1800s as a term of mockery for young men who were overly concerned with keeping up with the latest fashions. It later came to stand for clueless city folk (who go to dude ranches) before it morphed into our all-purpose laid-back label for a guy. What we didn’t know was why the word dude was chosen in the first place.

So where does dude come from? Evidence points to “doodle,” as in “Yankee Doodle Dandy.” He’s the fellow who, as the song has it, “stuck a feather in his cap and called it macaroni.” “Macaroni” became a term for a dandy in the 18th century after young British men returned from their adventures on the European continent sporting exaggerated high-fashion clothes and mannerisms (along with a taste for an exotic Italian dish called “macaroni”). The best a rough, uncultured colonist could do if he wanted to imitate them was stick a feather in his cap.

“For some reason,” Metcalf says, “early in 1883, this inspired someone to call foppish young men of New York City ‘doods,’ with the alternate spelling ‘dudes’ soon becoming the norm.” Some of the early mocking descriptions of these dudes seem awfully familiar today: “A weak mustache, a cigarette, a thirteen button vest/A curled rim hat—a minaret—two watch chains cross the breast.”
