Deaf people are going to be screwed in a few years

TC why are you acting outraged that someone keeps track of coded language hate groups use to communicate under your nose?
---

The ADL cautions that context is important when assessing a hate symbol.

---

ADL is a joke in today's world.
---

so are you going to ignore context and just talk about how it seems ridiculous to you?

If so, this entire thread is disingenuous and no one should ever take you seriously again
---

I tell you what, white supremacists are nothing if not creative
---

99% will have to do then
---

When are they just going to cut to the chase and declare white skin a hate symbol?
---

4chan should make ADL a hate symbol
---

Are the Volkswagen or Hugo boss logos in there?

Weird how many white supremacists keep saying this

I'm not white though.

For the upteenth time, no one is saying every single 100% image or use is a "hate symbol" nor does it make you a bigot for ever using it, but context is completely irreleavant to people who need to incessantly whine about everything.

100% is shorthand among white supremacists for "100% white," though it is also common for them to write out the entire phrase. Among prison populations and places such as California where peckerwood gangs are common, one might also see "100% peckerwood," "100% featherwood," or "100% wood."

Variations abound. Some white supremacists will refer to themselves as "101% white," for example. Occasionally the percentage "123%" appears, which also means "100% white," as the 23 refers to W, the 23rd letter of the alphabet. Some white supremacist gang members may substitute an alphanumeric equivalent, such as "112%" to refer to "100% Aryan Brotherhood" or "113%" to refer to "100% Aryan Circle."

Of course it is on that site.

No, they don't, you may want to get off Twitter.

Playing stupid when confronted about it is a very deliberate part of using otherwise innocuous symbolism. Here's the equivalent logical leap that results from playing stupid:

Article: The bald eagle is a symbol of the United States of America .

Deliberate stupid players: Oh, so now every representation of every bald eagle from the beginning of time always represents the US?

No, it obviously doesn't. It likewise doesn't mean that therefore the bald eagle is not a symbol of the US.

Direct quote from the page linked in OP:

All the symbols depicted here must be evaluated in the context in which they appear. Few symbols represent just one idea or are used exclusively by one group. For example, the Confederate Flag is a symbol that is frequently used by white supremacists but which also has been used by people and groups that are not racist. Similarly, other symbols in this database may be significant to people who are not extreme or racist. The descriptions here point out significant multiple meanings but may not be able to relay every possible meaning of a particular symbol.

But I guess reading is too hard for some of you.

But if they had to actually read and understand things they wouldn't be able to shit post and act as if they are better than others. And isn't that what it's all about?

Honestly I can appreciate a good quality shit post at times. It's just the whole "joke's on them, I was only pretending to be stupid"-shtick that's incredibly weak.

*checks out the list*

Oh goodie, if I ever get on The Price is Right I can look forward to potentially being labeled a racist for bidding $311 instead of $1 when it's really because it's my birthday (March 11th) and I've always used it as a lucky/favorite number of sorts, dating back to my grandpa playing it in the daily lotto almost every day in the 80s and 90s.

What do you gain from announcing that you dont understand how context works?

I understand how context works.

The problem would be people who don't know the context of it being my birthday/lucky number but who are aware that it's potentially offensive/racist for some convoluted reason.
---

If a group is using it as a hate symbol then yes it is. Please read the context. They are not saying these things are only hate symbols only that hate groups have adopted them. But this is CE and CE hates context.
