No, you don't understand, they're jokingly flashing white-power hand signals. Totally different.

Late but lol at the notion of white supremacists taking over the police and local government of small towns like it's some sort of conspiracy - they do it in the open, proudly, and are very clear in their intentions to mop the floor with the rest of us when the poo poo hits the fan.

Idk, the upside down near the leg ok sign is just a "made you look" kinda thing, much different from the blatant, upwards pepe-style "ok" thing that the fash ended up hoaxing into existence.

all im sayin is like, it had a resurgence as a meme lately and yes, it's dumb as poo poo but I see people post it all the time and theyre not secret nazis.

theyre cops, i dont need to get out my fash dowsing rod to search for hidden symbols to know that theyre right wing.

the upwards facing ok sign IS now a white supremacist symbol, having been meme'd into existence, but I've never seen altright types pose any other way than facing up

yeah we really don't need subliminal messages or conspiracy theories to discern that cops are fascists

like more of them voted for trump than people in literally any other profession

so does it really matter why these cops are doing the ok sign?

I don’t even get what the denial is. They’re doing it upside down so it’s just a sly deniable reference to the thing rather than being an explicit and unironic announcement of white supremacy?

The whole point of the ok thing was that it was ambiguous and had plausible deniability.

But there's a weird cottage industry of hoaxes / trolls / plain old over-vigilance involving nazis/alleged nazi symbolism that distract people from threats which are right in front of our face organizing openly which annoys me :shrug:

quote:

Criminal charges are reportedly pending against eight people who are said to have assaulted a local African American man in Avalon last Saturday night.

Paul L. Morris Sr. said that he was shocked by the hate he could sense from the group inside the Jackman Inn. Morris said that he had stopped by the local bar to drop off a thank you note for the Jackman’s kitchen manager, who had prepared food recently for a graduation party held for Morris’s son.

Jackman manager Jackie Scanlon said that the group of men and women wore clothing and had insignia that identified at least some of them as being affiliated with the statewide “White Nationalist” group Keystone United, formerly known as the Keystone State Skinheads.

The group is described by the Southern Poverty Law Center, which tracks hate groups, as “one of the largest and most active single-state racist skinhead crews in the country.”

Morris said that he was able to identify one of the men who assaulted him from a group photo posted on the Keystone United Web site, and Avalon Mayor Tom Lloyd confirmed that at least one of the men apprehended by police was wearing a t-shirt that indicated an affiliation with a hate group.

The group stood out to the regulars at the Jackman, Scanlon said, which has a rule barring anyone wearing patches or colors that identify them as part of a gang or hate group. She said that an inexperienced bartender working Saturday night did not ask them to leave until they began harrassing Morris with racial slurs.

Morris said there was little doubt that members of the group “had the look” of skinheads, but, “you can’t judge a book by the cover,” [me: ~*whoopsie doopsie*~] so he just walked past them to meet the kitchen manager, at which point the two of them went out onto the bar’s back deck so that the kitchen manager could smoke a cigarette.

Morris said that members of the group made several vulgar comments to him as he was out on the deck, and he decided it would be best to leave. As he came back into the bar, however, he said that he was hit by one of the group members. Morris, who sustained facial injuries but did not seek medical attention, said that his glasses were knocked off his face. He reported that as he leaned over to pick them up from the floor, he was jumped by the entire group, males and females. Scanlon said that the kitchen manager attempted to pull people off Morris, and also was assaulted. When someone announced that the police had been called, the group ran out of the bar, using the back exit and running around the side of the building, Scanlon and Morris said.

Morris said that one of the men assaulting him identified himself as a “Neo-Nazi,” and said that “they” intended to “eradicate” people of color.
