Topic | Liberal Cartoonist KILLED Pepe the Frog because he can't stand ALT-RIGHT Jerks! |
Full Throttle 05/10/17 2:04:56 AM #1: | He tried in a failed attempt to reclaim the frog last year and finally he just killed him off so that the right-wing can stop using his work for their gain He described Pepe as a "chilled out frog who likes to eat snacks and talk on the phone and smoke weed" before it was hijacked by the right-wing and branded a hate symbol after Pepe originally joined the boys club It was first popular for user-generated mutations with the catchphrase "Feels good man" and it was used by other celebs like Nicki Minaj and Katy Perry as his expressions were used for smugness to rage.. But right-wing trolls hijacked it and flooded social media with different memes..particularly for Donald Trump's campaign as it became a tongue-in cheek symbol for the alt-right fringe movement and used it for white nationalism, neo-nazism and anti-immigration while promoting Donald Trump as their lord and saviour. The frog then took different forms to Adolf Hitler and a member of the KKK The Anti-Defamation League branded Pepe as a hate symbol and asked Furi to reclaim his character with the #SavePepe hashtag.. He asked people to flood the net with "peaceful or nice" versions of Pepe as he said he had to take some responsbility to reclaim him as he feels Pepe is like his kid..but it failed and it just made Pepe even more into an alt-right image. Kyle Bristow, an alt-right Michigan attorney said Pepe is now THEIRS as it's the symbol of the alt-right Matt said "Before he got wrapped up in politics, pepe was an inside joke and a symbol for feeling sad and feeling good and many things in between. I understand that its' out of my control, but in the end, Pepe is whatever you say he is and i, the creator, say Pepe is love". Did you know what Pepe the Frog was BEFORE it became an alt-right symbol?
