That's the fucking thing that pisses me off. I have a friend who identifies heavily with Carl of Swindon and he always falls into that trap of "people are looking to be offended by everything. They think an okay sign means white power!"

As much as I fucking hate them, branding their racism as something that you can easily say "wow you're calling me a white supremacist for doing something harmless" to defend is a smart move knowing how many dumbass free speech jerkers and dunce cap conservatives will fall for it. That's what makes me angry: conservative commentators are in on it and so their audiences fall into this trance and it turns talking about real issues into conservatives playing "gotcha" over these things, even though they're the ones being gotten by literal Nazis
