Grrr…
Apparently putting brackets around someone’s name now means that they’re Jewish.
Fuck you, Nazi arseholes.
We’ll just have to use braces {} instead.
Why is Grrr to blame?
Antisemites need a Chrome extension to put parentheses around someone’s name? They’re too dumb/lazy to just type them in?
No. It added them to existing text in a tweet, news article, etc.
Okay, maybe I’m not 100% clear on the concept here but if we’re all supposed to be hugging Jews, I’m calling dibs on Scarlett Johansson.
Whoa. If I get stuck with Jerry Stiller I ain’t playing.
I am (((TriPolar))).
I like {} as hugs. Also, }{ for kisses. Which reminds me: Anti-Semites: }{ my (|).
Believe me, it’s utter coincidence that this post supporting Internet hugs contains fourteen words.
ROFL!
Where’s that Like button?
Nazis are why we can’t have nice things. Them, and my kid.
Jesus (((Christ))) these people are crazy.
Seems counter-productive … if the Neo-Nazis are tagging those they hate, then we’ll know who we should trust.
Well played, sir, well played indeed …
Many Jewish people and their friends on Twitter had co-opted this and were putting parentheses around their own names. Now that Chrome has removed the extension from the store some seem to have dropped it.
But now there’s an extension that automatically puts names of creative people in Comic Sans.
