Pretty sure some redditers saturated the internet with posts about this symbol being a white supremacists symbol as a form of gaslighting .
You are perpetuating this bullshit .
It is the punch game that is it don't be a ❄
Uhuh, that's what I said - ask, move on.Except one of the players making the symbol is black. Clearly something else is at play here. Time to move on.
Yes I’m a snowflake for suggesting it’s probably not a good look for the club from a PR perspective. OK brah.Pretty sure some redditers saturated the internet with posts about this symbol being a white supremacists symbol as a form of gaslighting .

Edit it was 4chan not reddit
Hope it didn’t come across as me having a crack at you. You’re all good, the other guy is the one who’s got questions to answer.I haven't read all the replies but I'm sorry I wasn't clear enough that it was tongue in cheek. I cropped Jones out of the photo, who's an indigenous player, and was doing the exact same signal.
Has never meant anything race-related in Australia, surely we all remember it from high school/boarding school?
Since been appropriated by the far right ?It started as a 4chan prank, but has since been appropriated by the far-right as a real nod-and-wink code though. I'm sure it's innocent here, but the club should have a chat. If you were accidentally doing something that could be interpreted as a Nazi code, wouldn't you want to know and not do that thing in future?
Uhuh, that's what I said - ask, move on.
He was well blanketed by shep especially in the 2nd halfGoing back to the game, does Walters look like he's over it? Didnt seem to have the same competitiveness he usually has and was phoning it in. May just be age.
You do realise Jones was doing the symbol also ? Is he a white supremacist tooYes I’m a snowflake for suggesting it’s probably not a good look for the club from a PR perspective. OK brah.
Or someone who actually pays a bit of attention to this stuff, but ok man. This probably isn't the place to argue about it at length anyway.Since been appropriated by the far right ?
You sound like a conspiracy theory nut job
True, sounded like 3 mates having a catch up and casually calling the gamejust watched the highlights.
Horrid commentary again.
Goals we kicked were met with "meh" levels of commentary.
On SM-G925I using BigFooty.com mobile app
Nope. Just ask, "hey boys, what's the symbol for? This symbol has been hijacked by the right and there's no shortage of left wokesters and trouble makers who will try and make a political statement about it. So can you find another symbol?"
All good mate but if it really was a racist symbol why would they keep it in my symbolsOr someone who actually pays a bit of attention to this stuff, but ok man.
"This is Freo's arsehole and we just banged it".Maybe they are just saying thumbs up we beat the w***ers.
The only people who jump to conclusions are woke SJW's on Twitter.Nope. Just ask, "hey boys, what's the symbol for?

There's a few people here saying I'm making a big deal about nothing but I think there's other people jumping to conclusions and making a big deal about not much.....
I didn’t say or believe any of the players are white supremacists but clearly you’re one of these perpetually outraged types and got the blinkers on a bit.You do realise Jones was doing the symbol also ? Is he a white supremacist too
Its a snowflake move to perpetuate this cancel culture BS .
Let's be real clear about this: I'm not offended. I'm not woke. I'm not a leftie.The only people who jump to conclusions are woke SJW's on Twitter.
Those people should just retreat to their safe space and stay there.
It's seriously an old game.
Next time someone uses the actual 'OK' symbol are you going to ask why they're using a gesture offensive to Brazilians?
How about the old Thumbs Up which is the same as the middle finger to West Africans and people in the Middle East?
This sh*t about getting offended over nothing needs to stop.
I'm not saying you are.Let's be real clear about this: I'm not offended. I'm not woke. I'm not a leftie.
That's true. Shep just goes about his business quietly every weekHe was well blanketed by shep especially in the 2nd half
I agree. I have zero time for wokesters. But if we had players rocking a racist symbol, I'd have a problem, therefore I need to ask. It was clarified, I thought we were going to move on, but then the righteous righties came in a starting trying pulling some leftie cancel culture s**t on my ass.I'm not saying you are.
I'm saying that people who get offended by this sh*t and think it should be censored are no different to the Nazis they condemned for burning books. Just because your 'ideology' is 'left' or 'right' doesn't mean it's decent.
