This was in reply to a tweet about keeping oneself sane by avoiding Twitter drama on the weekend. That tweet ended with multiple OK-hand emojis.

I trust the author honestly didn't know about the white supremacy associations. She deleted her tweet in response to Marcy's note.

The OK symbol (👌🏽) was perfectly innocent until recently. Cartoon frogs were fun a few years before that. And the swastika was a spiritual symbol until the 1930s. (Yes, I went there.)

But when hate groups co-opt a symbol or name, the rest of us need to adjust our usage.
