We can turn that "OK" hate symbol back to be about inclusion
It's sad when a good symbolic gesture is turned into a hate symbol. Maybe if we start associating that OK with love and inclusion, it will not be an alt right hijack. What if we use that symbol to show our acceptance of LGBT and to say we are "one with LGBT"? The alt right never wants to be associated with that group and imo that's the strongest group against them. It would need to be done at a national level in order for it to work and to be widely advertised. It's terrible that all this is associated with Number One Idiot. I can't even use the thumbs up gesture either for the fact that he's used it so often. Sad.sad.sad.
