    So NBC is no longer a news organization and just a tabloid now.

    Not sure what's funnier, the outrage or the outrage over the outrage.

    It's actually much weirder than I expected, the 14 stands for 14 words in a racist sentence and the 88 is a reference to 88 rules of skinheads (something like that)

    No seriously are people actually being this fucking retarded at this point? He literally rubbed the side of his head. People on the left are becoming a group of hysterical fuckwits.

    I often lean on my hand like that.
    News to me as well, and completely agree there are some people out there getting stupider by the second.. Because who knew scratching ones ear/head would get one into trouble..

    It's hardly the first time white supremacists and nazi-fascists have appropriated an otherwise innocuous symbol to try and whitewash their ilk.

    Look at the swastika and pepe for instance.

    Rather, it would be newsworthy-surprising if they didn't try what is essentially their modus operandi.

    It's too bad we heard this tired argument from the far right plenty of times. Then a split-second later make racially-charged epithets or sympathetic statements to Nazis and Nazism.

    Almost like they are labeled racist because they are acting like racists, and not because it's a meaningless insult. Almost.

    Any sane person would realise you cannot compare the swastika (the most universally-recognised hate symbol) with a green cartoon meme-frog -- and the universally-used "OK" hand gesture

    This left-wing virtue-signalling hysteria is way out of hand, and it's the reason Trump and others like him are winning and will keep on winning

    The left needs to get rid of all the crazy authoritarian SJWs/feminists and go back to being a sensible party advocating for individual freedoms and a secular, scientific society

    The far left is absolutely going to ruin the world unless a nuclear war breaks out to give humanity a chance to start over.
    Anyways to be serious, they really are ruining speech and even non-verbal communication.

    You should see the comments on the twitter getting upset over the 'Okay' sign. It actually physically hurt to read. I physically can't imagine that happening anywhere but the USA and between the extremes on both political sides, it actually makes me sad to think about. Fucking hell our species is fucked.

    This guy doesn't even have a clue what the fuck is going on, lmao. He's desperately trying to save face for something clearly doesn't understand. What's with the far-left's hysterical panicking over a dead meme?
    Would be funny if it was some good symbol lol

    The symbol means "OK" - which would imply that he thinks the Coast Guard is "not OK"

    It's not a great way of proving that the left is somehow out of power when they fear-monger without the slightest shred of evidence. This usually indicates someone in power that has become paranoid.

    Its a 4chan meta that is extremely easy to confirm as not being "white power gesture" because the original posts have been meme'd and immediately show up when searching Google.

    Aka NBC is such a shit news source that their writers and editors don't fact check their articles with even cursory research.

    I don't know for sure for the Coast Gaurd but they probably already have "diversity officers". In the Army units have an EO rep (equal opportunity) and generally have to do some sort of yearly EO training. Been a thing for a while.
