Summary

The far left is once again claiming that the ok sign is a secret dog whistle and that Zina Bash, by simply crossing her arms in an odd way, was signaling a certain group of people. But this is insane nonsense. They are sharing a simple video of a random woman crossing her arms, thats it. Whats funny here is that some of these people pushing the conspiracy have, in the past, called for Alex Jones to banned over pushing a conspiracy theory. It seems like we have another case of "its ok when we do it" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=li7xxMaKqlo&index=2&list=PLxQaod7tWvYKEVcKAEvH3BVpeqbAlhSdR&t=0s

It's times like these I really do question the value of social media because it would seem like everyone has just gone insane.

0:08.0

We are experiencing another far left conspiracy theory around the Ok Hansen.

0:13.2

So let me just start by saying the Ok Hansen does not mean white power.

0:18.0

It never has. This was a hoax perpetrated by 4chan.

0:21.5

Now it's just a symbol that typically shows your Trump supporter or you want to trigger to the lips.

0:28.0

It doesn't have anything to do with white power but yes, there are probably people who are white nationals to use it because it's actually about triggering the left.

0:35.0

Not about white power. So a lot of people use it for a variety of reasons.

0:39.0

But people actually believe right now that a woman who is sitting behind Brett Kavanaugh during the Supreme Court hearings flashed the white power hand gesture as a dog whistle.

0:51.0

They're saying that she got a text message. Realized she was on TV and then made the subtle hand sign to let everyone know that she's a white supremacist.

0:59.0

This is a conspiracy theory. It is absolute and utter nonsense. It's literally just a video of some woman crossing her arms.

1:04.5

And some of these same people who are freaking out over this and spreading this lie, this misinformation called for Alex Jones to be banned because they said he was also spreading conspiracy theories.

1:14.5

And you know what? Even CNN has called this out as complete and utter nonsense.

1:20.0

So today let's take a look at the utter hypocrisy from far left conspiracy theorists and we'll start with the root.

1:27.0

Now the root is far left and they frame this as did it happen which is a bit more honest than some other outlets which we'll get to.

1:34.5

But they said did a woman sitting behind Kavanaugh flash the white power symbol during his hearing and they show this photo where you can see a woman has her arms crossed and her hand is just in a strange position.

1:45.5

Therefore, no one's ever going to cross their arms like this. The only explanation is that she is flashing white power to the world.

1:53.5

They start by asking did a former Trump immigration policy employee and wife of a United States attorney flash a white power symbol during Brett Kavanaugh's Senate confirmation hearing?

2:03.0

Zina Bash is a 36 year old woman who previously served as the deputy director of policy and communications for Ted Cruz's failed presidential run in 2016.

2:11.0

She has made the rounds in Washington DC having worked for Senator John Cornyn as well as current US Supreme Court Justice nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh.

2:19.0

She also worked on Trump's immigration policy. On Tuesday Bash was at the center of controversy on social media where many accused her of making a white power sign during Kavanaugh's confirmation hearing.

2:29.5

In video from the hearing Bash can be seen sitting directly behind Kavanaugh looking smug and at times smirking as Democrats speak during the hearing.

2:37.0

One of her hands is making the okay symbol which has been co-opted by Trump supporters, white supremacists and members of the alt-right in an effort to troll people on the left according to the anti-defamation league.
