Honestly, a lot of it was just some random twitter user trying to start shit. The drinking milk thing was one of those.

Yeah. The "ok sign" one started just as some random 4chan post.

That wasn't some random 4chan post it was something planned by a group of 4chan users that made it into an "operation" to push this to go after liberals and the media, and why would they he doing that? Oh because it was started by actual Nazis on 4chan.

Again this is just Nazis trying to use left wing and media overreaction to cover up their Nazi shit, they like trying to make us look like we're jumping at shadows while they operate with impunity.

That's the thing is it always seems like it's just one of these shitheads but soon enough it always becomes more, that's why they push this stuff, and why they hope for reactions like yours.

It goes back to the 60's and 70's, the dawn of Punk music, back before Skinheads were inherently Nazi they were black and white people in London fighting for worker solidarity, then the Nazis took it over and it became a thing inherently Nazi.

So this corruption of things is what they do to grow and to maintain a general ignorance about them.
