Because we're all idiots who got taken in on this by 4chan. The symbol became irresistible to that guy after watching liberals lose their minds at it. If it hadn't bothered the libs, it would have no use to him.

Exactly. The Trump crowd is made up of bullies, trolls, middle class frat boys and other antisocials, while various influencers are feeding them ideas. And horse medicine.

    Nicely twisted, BUT: - the aforementioned crowd’s ”others” are being deceived in many ways, and my ”othering statements” are just fine to describe people who enable the aforementioned ”non-others” (also, is ”others” not an othering statement? why don’t you call them marks instead?) - Ivermectin is indeed safe for humans to take, BUT people are indeed taking the HORSE formulation, not the HUMAN formulation - Ivermectin may even show slight effectiveness against active covid infection, BUT the jury is still very much out on that one

I think you're missing the point that they would have just rolled with some different symbol instead. People like this don't become violent as a result of liberals losing their minds, obviously. Semantic quibbling over the provenance of the symbol is a distraction from the violent ethos and activities of those who adopted it.

  The leader of the proud boys once stuck a dildo up his ass, on stage, in order to "own the libs". It's documented, you can look it up. I think you're underestimating lib owning as a motivational factor for these guys.
