Mondo Poster News & Rumors
seems like I'm not the only one that gets it. Also lol at that dude Aldo feeling the need to call me lame. Didn't you get banned by Shep Fairey for blatantly flipping prints? Don't bitch about me commenting on an ongoing topic, bitch at the dude who brought it up.
oh and yes, this is the Mondo thread. Probably the most excitement it's had in a while..

lmao y'all are delusionalDonPiano wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2019 10:03 pmIt's on a poster for a film that is literally about the Antichrist. Pretty sure that the use of the 'ok' symbol is apt and feeding into the rhetoric that it's a hate symbol and a sign of white nationalism.
Australia here and I know it as a hate symbol.jvwoodford wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2019 3:16 pmIt definitely depends what part if the world you are in. In UK for instance there is no way that symbol would be used to say anything other than OK.

I guess I'm sheltered here...never heard the OK sign be used in a racist way.
The context is that it's not supposed to be, nor usually is, a hate symbol, but it's been recently co-opted as such and is getting recognized as such. So nobody's fully wrong here, it's just the awkward insanity of seeing something innocuous turn into something else in the span of like, 2 years. It sucks but so does everything else these days.

yeah i'm pretty sure it was added just on the basis that some people have co-opted (as you said) use of it for their own purposes. didn't that shooter from new zealand flash the ok symbol in court? it's something used by fudge people in fudge internet placesjkw3000 wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2019 12:23 pmThe context is that it's not supposed to be, nor usually is, a hate symbol, but it's been recently co-opted as such and is getting recognized as such.

Revelation 13:18
“Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.”
The A-OK hand sign = 666 = Satan
And so it goes...

(not saying one is more right than the other, but this seems more the reason for the usage of the hand-signage.)
Carry on...

The OK symbol has to be the ultimate 4chan troll. We are living in the darkest timeline.
