Thank you all for the condolences. My father went all the way thru Korea as an Army cook in an artillery unit. He went to the Air Force afterwards as Air Search and Rescue. He finished his career with the Air Force as an NCOIC of Aerospace Medicine last duty station Bitburg AFB Germany.
He lived the way he wanted and importantly to me, passed exactly the way he wanted to.

The Unconventional Approach:
Target the Radical Left liberal pols, show them that there would be NO WESTERN CIVILIZATION without WHITE SUPERIORITY...The railroads were not built by coolies, Say things that push libs to hysteria....The North won the Civil War because the North had more Irish Generals that were alcoholics. !!!!

The Nordic “Sunwheel”
The Archangel Michael Cross
The Othala Rune
The Norse Algis Rune
Going to run afoul of AR-670-1
Authorized Religion symbols.
AR 600–20, para 5–6g(2)(d)).
(a) Soldiers may wear religious apparel, articles, or jewelry with the uniform, to include the physical fitness uniform, if they are neat, conservative, and discreet. “Neat conservative,and discret”is defined as meting the uniform criteria of this regulation. In other words, when religious jewelry is worn, the uniform must meet the same standards of wear as if the religious jewelry were not worn. For
example, a religious item worn on a chain may not be visible when worn with the utility, service, dress, or mess uniforms. When worn with the physical fitness uniform, the item should be no more visible than identification (ID) tags would be in the same uniform. The width of chains worn with religious items should be approximately the same size as the width of the ID tag chain.
(b) Soldiers may not wear these items when doing so would interfere with the performance of their duties or present a safety concern. Soldiers may not be prohibited, however, from wearing religious apparel, articles, or jewelry meeting the criteria of this regulation simply because they are religious in nature, if wear is permitted of similar items of a nonreligious nature. A specific example would be wearing a ring with a religious symbol. If the ring meets the uniform standards for jewelry and is not worn in a work area where rings are prohibited because of safety concerns, then wear is allowed and may not be prohibited simply because the ring bears a religious symbol.

Some one is going to do pushback. Hell I have had a Archangel Michael Cross most of my life and carried it around the world. My Priest gave it to me so is the Catholic Church now on the evil empire list? The druids will be upset about the runes.
Let all get but hurt so we all feel the same

So, they've banned the OK hand sign.
Nice one guys.
A few notes
- I'm pretty sure the OK hand sign being a white power hand signal was started as an online prank by the 4chan website, and is not actually a thing.
- Next thing you know we won't be able to say white, we'll need to call it "the colour who's name shall not be spoken".
- Banning some of these I get, but do you really think they're not going to just change what they call it.
- Some of the items chosen will have zero effect and have just been chosen as out-right virtue signaling.
Shut down extremism, and especially white supremacy, definitely!
But this!? Gawd, could it be more of a, politically generated ,weak ass, attempt or what!

I don’t think the “OK” hand signal has been banned by anyone yet, Apple still allows it in their emoji list, at least until the next update. Just like the “OK” hand signal means “asshole” in Germany, and a thumbs up means Fu*k you in Arabic, and a reverse “Peace” sign in England will land you in trouble unless you are Sir Winston Churchill because it means Fu*k You to them.
I believe it’s the upside-down method of of the “OK” hand signal means White-Power or is considered racist by the SPLC/ADL which looks more like a “P” with three legs or III%. You will notice the White-Power guys and that Mickey Mouse character that hold it out over someone’s shoulder or out of their pants pocket. That is the racist use of the “OK” hand sign.
Just sayin’
P.S. If it goes much deeper than that PADI and NADA are going to have to rewrite the whole SCUBA diving handbook because “OK” means “OK!”

They will do or say whatever they can in order to keep the populace "stupid." We already have kids that can't add or subtract working in places where if the cash register goes down, they almost can't function. Racist math must be outlawed.

Thanks for the reply ODNT.
I'm referring to this from the OP
"The symbols (to be banned) include...“WP” symbols, including as a hand sign"
And this from the ADL
https://www.adl.org/education/refere...y-hand-gesture
The article says this about the 4chan prank turned real world.
I guess life imitates art after all.
Quote:
"According to the website "Know Your Meme", as a prank, 4chan users in 2017 launched a campaign to flood social media with posts linking the "OK" hand gesture to the white power movement.
Commenters on the message board appropriated images of people posing in the White House and other locations making the hand symbol as proof that it was catching on.
However, now the number of people espousing hate while using the gesture has grown so widespread that it can no longer be considered a prank."

Perhaps someone at SWCS could clarify if "OK" is still "OK"?

Funny but sad. A metric to watch is the Science and engineering accreditation boards for universities. These boards set a prescribed curriculum. When these boards are infected by the woke virus and math and such no longer needed for accreditation we are fucked. I'll go one step further accreditation will be seen as racist. Infract the only accreditation required will woke curriculum . Wonder if China and Russia have this problem?
