WASHINGTON, D.C. (July 21, 2023) – D.C. United have terminated the employment of the club’s athletic trainer effective immediately.
This termination is the result of an internal review following the discovery of a discriminatory hand gesture made by the individual that surfaced in a photograph published across social media platforms on July 20, 2023.
There is no place for racism, homophobia, misogyny, or discrimination of any kind in our sport and world and D.C. United do not tolerate any acts of this nature.
I thought this 4chan troll had been debunked and explained. Keep destroying people’s careers for nothing.
Wasn’t really sure where to put this, move it if you want.

Regardless, is it worth risking your career just to make some stupid arse hand sign in a photo?
It's stupid and juvenile to do this whether he's throwing up this or he's throwing up gang signs.

I can't believe people still think that troll is a legit thing.

Maybe he wanted early paid retirement
Seems like he has a case.

Imagine trying to convince HR.

Yep.
Don't understand it. But want to keep my job. Fornette had a whole image based around it.

It is. The fact people have taken it and run with it says more about those morons than anyone doing the hand sign.
That bastard made me look.

It was. But then actual white supremacists (first being Brenton Tarrant I believe) started adopting it and threw it back to ambiguous territory.

Did you seriously put the “OK” hand sign in the same category as gang signs?

People that don't like being punched in the arm for looking through.

I think various "right wing" groups need to start flying the rainbow and BLM flags so those get designated as hate gestures...
