Rare Pepe is a "white supremacist symbol"?

That's it then, the entire web is full of white supremacists. These people are truly, patently stupid, someone needs to teach them what dank memes are, before they go on to look even more ignorant.

They're not even trying to hide it anymore. Tonight they were calling for her to step down though, and swap in Bernie. I'm sure Hillary just loves that.

I've heard Pepe being associated with the alt right for a while. Not that I understand it.

I want to say it started from this meme, which was from back when the Trump campaign appealed to 4chan as performance art.



If my memeography is up to snuff, that's supposed to be "rape train", which can debatedly claim lineage to "prepare your anus".

Rare Pepe is associated with trolls; Left, Right, or Center. To say it's a meme that's been adopted by any specific ideological group is hilarious, and shows ignorance of how the internet works. Hell, that's something my 88 y/o grandmother could have invented. Truly mind-blowing.

To put it into troll terms "Pepe and I have Aspies, those who don't are the real enemy".

A primer for those still confused about the Pepe:

He rose from the grave today, the tomb is empty. Praise Kek!




Honestly, how did the original creator think this was going to turn out? He doesn't own Pepe anymore, /pol/ does, and now he's given them even more motivation.

I discovered this from seeing a pic of a /pol/ meetup, where everyone had milk jugs.

Notably, most of them weren't what I'd call "white".
