theres some shitty post thats like “heres bandanna colors and hand signs u can use to display ur team pride for pokemon go!” including the literal hand signs for the bloods and the crips which are… REAL LIFE GANGS…

and theres people spreading it around thinking its real and fun, and it scares me the thought of some kids (ESP kids of color) playing pokemon go at night and getting ratted on or hurt by police for looking “suspicious” and wearing bandannas and displaying signs for real world gangs

basically some shitty racist people are using the whole “team pride!” thing in pokemon go to falsely get colored kids hurt, by PURPOSEFULLY SPREADING MISINFORMATION ON A GAME DIRECTED AT KIDS, and thats shit
