flexghost.Would someone please tell me why the media is framing this as George Santos is being “accused” of “allegedly” flashing a white power sign. There’s video and images.
Same gaslighting vibes as the J6 “riot”
Paranoid FactoidThey'll just pretend the OK sign hasn't been coopted by white supremacists because plausible deniability blah blah who could possibly blah blah blah
David HarlanThere is a difference between the two, in that the white power sign has the tip of the forefinger placed under the knuckle of the thumb, instead of at the tip; in that way the tip of the thumb forms the bottom of the P, instead of an O.
Dumbasses just make the OK sign anyway. Nuance never their strong suit.
@DavidMHarlan @ParanoidFactoid everyone flashes the “ok” sign. Easy mistake to make.

what really kills me about it, is that the OK sign is a silent, ranged method of asking or telling someone if everything is alright. They love that that just screws the whole thing up for everybody
