Can we please spread a rumor that nothing annoys leftists more than self-immolation?

What's wrong with the OK sign?

[–] saigot@lemmy.ca 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

A bunch of nazi's used it as a dog whistle and it got added to a database of hate symbols.

Why exactly are we giving Nazis the power to poison language, emojis, what have you for the rest of us again?

I think we should do the opposite. As soon as some symbol becomes a dog whistle, we should all rush to use it for it's original meaning as much as possible, thus preventing the dog from hearing the whistle where it's supposed to be used as such.

Well the purpose of the hate list like this isn't "what symbols not to use" so much as, if a guy uses this and there's context to suggest it's a dogwhistle, this is what it means.

As a concrete example, If someone turns to a camera makes the ok gesture then punches a black guy that can be used as evidence in conjunction with a database like this to add a hate crime charge onto the assault charge.

By that point, it's already been tainted and it's too hard to tell reality from satire from ignorance.

Nazis just love appropriating and poisoning symbols, and it all started with the swastika: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swastika
