RE: Decentmemes.com Logo Contest
Sorry without numbers or proof, I simply brush off your point that Pepe is used primarily by people that push the white nationalism side of things. That is why I brought up your possession of the "Nazi boots" as well.
Just google "Nazi boots" and look at what comes up.
You aren't wearing "Nazi boots" to promote Naziism just like I am not using Pepe to promote nationalism. I am not sure why it seems hard to understand that despite your view of how you think Pepe (or anything else) has been used, other people are either ignorant to that particular use or just plainly dont subscribe to it.
https://www.adl.org/education/references/hate-symbols - This is where Pepe was classified that makes it fit your narrative.
Other hate symbols in the Hate Symbols Database: 12, 13, 14, 14 words, 18, 28, 38, 43, and probably all the other numbers in the world.
More about Pepe: https://www.adl.org/education/references/hate-symbols/pepe-the-frog
The majority of uses of Pepe the Frog have been, and continue to be, non-bigoted. However, it was inevitable that, as the meme proliferated in on-line venues such as 4chan, 8chan, and Reddit, which have many users who delight in creating racist memes and imagery, a subset of Pepe memes would come into existence that centered on racist, anti-Semitic or other bigoted themes.
Kind of interesting when you use the information that Pepe is primarily used by nationalists when the Hate Symbol Database itself refutes that claim.
Btw, I find a lot of religious symbology to be hateful. I'm just not going to twist an obvious non-hateful use of the symbology into one that is on a far extreme.
You just had to ask if you were unsure how the logo was being used. Hell, had I know about any of this stuff then, I might have used it as ironic shock value.
You should use a swastika then if you are going for ironic shock value by reusing nazi imagery. It would send a clearer message and save people a lot of time on you.
I said if I had known about this childish shit I might have poked fun at it just because of how fucking ridiculous it is.
No one said I did use it for shock value so don't twist my words. I told you precisely why I used it, I responded civilly to let you know your concerns were unfounded.
You refuse to accept that something you consider bad was used without intent or context of that meaning. You are a child and have some pretty poor social skills as evident many times across this website.
Btw, your buddy @berniesanders NICELY let me know the use of the logo a couple days before acidyo made the post seeking a new logo. He agrees with you and believes the logo has been misappropriated but didnt approach the subject with accusations like you have done and continue to do even after participating in a discussion that unequivocally debunks your bullshit claim.
I have agreed the frog logo has been used for bullshit racism. I have countered by saying it originated with a different meaning, and I used it completely regardless of its meaning anyway.
I used it because it was a well known meme. Period.
The only reason you think there is more to it is because you are fucking retarded or something. Idk. Have a good day @sneak, wont be replying to your trolling anymore.
One reason I am going to quit replying is because Condenser is absolute shit when it comes to handling a post with many comments. Maybe thats something you could focus your energy on besides arguing a non issue.
