    It started as a joke on 4 Chan in 2017 get people to think the ok sign was used by white supremacists. The media naturally fell for it/ran with it as it creates a narrative of secret sleeper clan members waiting to strike. Mostly morons believed it to be true which included white supremists groups who now have adopted it.
