I went looking on YouTube and in the first BLM/Antifa protest I saw there is a flag with two red triangles painted on a flag they are holding in the background of this interview back in Dec 2019

I didn't see a flag. :shrug:

Me, neither, but the "We are trained Marxists. We are super versed on ideological theories." Comment by a co-founder of BLM is enlightening. 

Of course, all those theories work just fine, in theory...
In practice, over 100,000,000 dead.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

And unless Trump gives a believable explanation for the triangle I can only conclude that he posted a Nazi triangle for political prisoners.  Nothing else makes sense.  It is not a emoji.  It isn't Antifa, but if it was I would wonder why they advertise the symbol.  But it wasn't.  Didn't say Antifa.  Wasn't similar to anything they wear or wave with the exception of a shape.  And millions of people died under Hitler. 

He should explain.  Something that we can believe.
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

As I noted, Communists figured prominently in the 'red triangle' bunch.

Of course it did and that is how Hitler designated Communists in the camps.

I understand the history.

I just don't happen to expect--given the intense 24/7/365 hostile attacks; the super complexity of intense problems etc. he has to deal with--I don't happen to expect him to be on top of every minor detail out of the 100's of THOUSANDS of data points on his plate.

I don't either. It's a lot to keep track of. Maybe the Protocol people can keep up.
(Hang the fact that Antifa and BLM have some heavy Marxist roots and might have claimed the symbol for their own.)

Here's the rub. If we ban every symbol that anyone ever used for nefarious purposes, we're going to run out of stuff we can use for symbols, and the number of unintended messages sent will be off the charts. Already just being a statue of a white guy gets you sometimes a century of pigeon droppings and pulled off the plinth, even if you were an emancipator. All the faster if you happened to beon a statue of a horse.

Who knew, for instance, that the 'OK' hand gesture, (one used since, well. before I can remember, seen in movies to indicate someone or something was, well, 'OK'), is suddenly a "white supremacy gesture" and since when?
Who said it was? Why do they get to hijack it?

How did we get from
Quote
God said, “This is the sign of the covenant which I am making between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all successive generations; I set My bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a sign of a covenant between Me and the earth. It shall come about, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow will be seen in the cloud,read more.
and I will remember My covenant, which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and never again shall the water become a flood to destroy all flesh. When the bow is in the cloud, then I will look upon it, to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth.” And God said to Noah, “This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth.”

Genesis 9:12-17Source: https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/Rainbows

To being a symbol for something He said was abomination?

Is the back of the hand middle digit extended "You're number one with me" gesture suddenly something else, or can I still be offensive with that when I am offended?

Maybe we should stick with a few well-understood gestures so there is no question of when we intend to offend someone instead of the latest (anti-)social media rumour.  Sometimes, tried and true, traditional, gestures just work to get a point across.
Already, wearing the 'wrong' color shirt or bandana can get you killed in parts of towns I just don't go to.

At some point, it is inevitable that the perpetually offended will find something to be offended about, even if they have to make it up. Anticipating every thing that might offend anyone is an impossible task anyway. Maybe they should just put their big girl panties on and handle it.

I've noticed since a very young age, that offense is in the eye of the beholder.  A corollary to that is if somebody carries an irrational hatred of another individual, then every symbol, phrase, action, attire, choice of movies or automobile and word will be twisted into something terrible.

This is about where some folks are today in their blind, unreasoning hatred.  Whether it's tearing down a man or a statue, it's disgraceful.  And doesn't stay entertaining for very long.  Most of us have the good sense to separate ourselves from such negative people.

The hate mongers will always find something (else) to target and use against those they hate...

because they are always looking for something (else).
No quarter given to the enemy within...ever.
