It hasn't been a notorious gang sign since the early 2000s. It was already main stream with white kids doing it over 20 years ago.

These people are reinventing something that has not even died yet

This dance makes me imagine Crips and Bloods dancing at each other like in West Side Story.

Did Tencent actually collaborate with SD or was it Epic?

Is this the same dance as shuffling or is that somehow minutely different?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Nope. Completely different continent even. Shuffling originates from Melbourne, Australia - hence the original name "Melbourne Shuffle". It was usually danced to hardstyle music before a certain pop song popularized a very toned down version for the mainstream audiences.
