Skye Reynolds 09/15/19 11:42:38 PM #1:	A frog saying "feels good man" was a meme on the internet for a long time. Then, one day, it became associated with white supremacists, the alt right, and that dude who got sucker punched for espousing racist shit. I never really got the meme to begin with, but why did it take off with racists? What made it click with them that this random frog who looks stoned should be a symbol of white supremacy? Also, I feel bad for the frog's creator. I'd hate it if something I created became appropriated by the worst of the worst. <cite>Skye Reynolds posted [p:927498570] in How did th...

It doesn't absolve him of any guilt. It doesn't make him a person with some good and some bad. He was an out and out monster and perhaps the very worst in human history. But, simply for the record, he did like animals. Dogs in particular. I guess if they had to steal one meme, I'm glad they picked the lesser of the two.

the_rowan 09/15/19 11:55:05 PM #8:	Meanwhile over on other sites like Twitch, via FrankerFaceZ and BetterTTV, there's like a thousand emotes of Pepe: PepeHands, Feels[Good/Bad/Weird/OK]Man, POGGERS, COGGERS, widepeepoHappy, monka(S/GIGA/Gun/SSS/H or any of the other 100 variations of that emote...), pepeL, PepeLaugh, Pepega... A site that tracks their usage says that POGGERS, which turns 2 years old later this month since first upload, has already passed 30 million uses. monkaS turns 3 later this month and is at 50 million.

They're not thinking about ww2, they're thinking about hating minorities Honoring a wartime enemy who means them harm though is as foolish as it gets. It's like being trapped in a cabin with someone they dislike and thinking the angry bear that has them trapped is their friend because it might eat the person they're trapped with. It's like, "No, stupid. You're in the path of danger too." Hitler wouldn't have appreciated the groveling of the few narrow-minded Americans who pledged themselves to the Nazi cause. He'd have viewed them the way he saw all he set out to conquer in spite of their espoused allegiance. But then I guess it goes back to that whole notion that, if they were smart, they wouldn't be consumed with needless hatred anyway. <cite>Skye Reynolds posted [p:927499636] in How did th...
