Every Single One Of You Posting on this thread has used the OK sign 10, 20, 50 times yer year? Hundreds for some of you? Thousand in some trades? Multiply that by your age so tens of thousands of OK symbols? You must ALLLLLL be racists.

This is like the Woke Bullsh!t Bingo Game runamok. How many perceived co-opted racist microaggressions can we find?

This is effing out of control.

Investigate and determined it wasnt their intent. I can accept that.



We could ask Stephen Miller what he thinks

Hes familiar with the ok corral and runs in those types

And it is silly to have to have an investigation every time the Woke Mob sees a perceived threat.

This is like reporting on your neighbors STALINIST style.

The admin decided to investigate because the WokeMob demanded it.

sure they are. I've heard them used.

So you think things have changed and what may have been appropriate years ago may not be appropriate today?
