CoD: Modern Warfare OK Gesture Removed For Links To White Supremacy
Infinity Ward have quietly removed Modern Warfare's OK gesture, presumably due to its links to hate movements.

quote:

Infinity Ward, developer of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Warzone, has removed an in-game gesture that has been culturally associated to white supremacy.

The OK gesture has been replaced with a new one called Crush during the game's latest mid-season patch. Although not specifically mentioned in the patch notes, players quickly discovered the change (spotted by Eurogamer) given that the gesture has been widely used for humiliating opponents unfortunate enough to be the final kills in multiplayer matches.

This ok thing being white supremacy literally started on /pol/ years ago. They said “they’ll believe anything is white supremacy if there’s some meme saying it’s white supremacy”

So they made a few memes and posted on liberal tumblr boards asserting that the ok symbol is white supremacy as a joke.

Here we are. Pol was right again.

Idiots. There are tons of these. Careful in Russia however, it is too similar to calling someone an arsehole.

Hopefully they pick more fun targets to go after. I'd really hate for the Washington Post logo to be associated with white power.

Something positive to come out of cancel culture for me is i have completely stopped playing video games. They have been falling over themselves to outwoke each other.

Keep in mind this same company banned/deplatformed and took away the prize money from a kid when he said "Free Hong Kong , fight of our time!" after winning a tournament. They fired the announcers for it too.

Didn't Soros buy a significant portion of Blizzard...which is owned by Activision...which owns Treyarch, the company that makes Call of Duty?

When beginning a scuba dive we are supposed to OK to others to signify all systems functioning, ready to dive. Guess we are all racists now. to hell with safety, virtue signaling is now priority one.

Not sure if soros did but Tencent (CCP Company) owns 10% of Activision/Blizzard. They also totally own RIOT (League of Legends).

Poliboard people with kids need to pay attention to this. It's not just TicTok China is using to grab our info.
