. . . and both get made to look like completely-idiotic left wing shills.

First, the OWL’s tweet:

Those of you over the age of, oh, _16 months_ will immediately recognize that gesture as the universally-accepted hand signal for “okay.” This fact was rubbed in Ms. Overprivileged’s face, not unlike a disobedient puppy getting his face rubbed in his own droppings.

First, it was pointed out that the white power gesture shown in [her referenced “evidence”](https://www.adl.org/education/references/hate-symbols/white-power-hand-sign) is an _entirely different gesture_. Seriously. They’re not even close to the same.

If that wasn’t enough, the shaming continued when several uses posted photos of famous non-whites and liberals _using the exact same alleged white power gesture_: Obama, Oprah, Beyonce, both Bill and Hillary Clinton, etc.

We end with a hilarious gif of Jean-Claude Van Dam giving the “white power gesture” while performing the splits:

Of course, none of this refuting evidence did anything to change Ms. Overprivileged’s stance, nor the stance of her fellow liberals. Their [mentally ill, ideologically-driven minds](https://www.louderwithcrowder.com/study-leftists-mentally-ill/) were already made up. _The okay gesture **is** the white power gesture, and no amount of counter-evidence will change that alternative fact._

Are there any liberals here willing to stand up and call out this shameful race-baiting, character-assassinating, nonsensical behavior from their left wing brethren?
