I think when kids will start doing it in public, the original symbol will lose its significance.

Are you all too young to remember this already being a thing middle class white kids were already doing a couple decades ago?

[โ€“] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Can confirm, I remember my middle school classmates doing the crip walk and the hand signs back in the early 2000s.

Yeah, the crip walk and then the โ€œbloodโ€ sign with their hands. Both.

99% sure Lemmy has a higher average age than any social media other than maybe facebook

[โ€“] Cryophilia 1 points 3 weeks ago

Because kids are addicted to social media
