    That’s a bit of a self fulfilling prophecy. They only use it because CNN and the ADL wouldn’t backtrack, thus giving their claims validity after the fact.

    We, the public, can stop that bullshit in it’s tracks by rejecting the whole premise and insisting on the actual, innocent meaning of the gesture.

      That’s like complaining that 12 year-olds drive language evolution. Yeah its obviously stupid to anyone who follows the process, but it’s still the process.
