Not that I want to do their work for them.
I honestly had to google “why is clapping anti feminist” and i got this article.
You guys have to realize how expressions and gestures can be adopted to whatever sick purpose you choose …

For God sake… don’t ask.
You’ve posted that a few times.
I’m on board with the sign being co-opted.
But invented for that purpose? You’re going have to source that. The sign has been used for a long time, and it’s racist connotations only date back to 2017, as far as I’m aware.
They’re literally trolling both sides. On the other side of the Wall of Screaming, some deniers would explain away anything short of a cross burning on the lawn of a black minister.
There are many documents, video, tweets from trump that disagree with your statement…
If you have children and they are using 4 chan, beat them.
This is utter nonsense.
This hand sign was originally a Hindu and Buddhist mudra. It’s been called just about everything. Illuminati, a ok, 666 and now “white power.”
Regurgitating old Mudras to have secret meaning is heretical.
That’s good parenting.
Can’t be worse then allowing them on 4 chan.
You are joking. It was not a 4channer. It has long been known to be anti-feminist… long before the 4-channers existed. Men can naturally clap louder than women. So it is nothing but an opportunity and exercise to say “I AM A MAN WHO IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOU PEOPLE WITH LITTLE CLAPPERS”.
Here is evidence that vigorous clapping is a requirement among Trumpians.
There’s always 8chan, or 420chan, or 2chan…
Also…it has meant “a good pizza”.

Indeed. Parents, you’re going to need a bundle of switches.
I posted several times to show how this can be a thing…
Self explanatory…4chan does an excellent job of trolling and this was one of the things they wanted to do. But…if everyone knows what it could imply why do it?
Sounds like the joke is on the ones that thinks it harmless fun…
The middle finger in some parts of the world is acceptable while the the peace sign means ■■■■ you…
I’m giving you the deuces right now…
If you want to make the cut with the 4chan crew, I’ve got the sneaking suspicion that you need to turn it up at least three notches.
I lived in Turkey for awhile…well aware of different meanings of gestures.
