It’s the equivalent of pretending that the old, widely-understood “OK” sign has something to do with white supremacy. The idea is to see if you can get people to believe it, and enjoy the panic that results.
- ehnto 5y agoWhat a ridiculous leap of logic. This is just an observation I've made about how people as individuals interpret things on the internet, intuited from a long history of chatting online. I'm not implying there is some rulebook for internet etiquette. Some people read into it, some people don't. Is it really so hard to imagine that? Some people think the power of your handshake says all there is to know about you, some people think smiling without showing your teeth is rude. Humans are weird, it's just a nuance of text chat some people write and read and some people don't.
