    Maybe I’m not chronically online enough or in whatever channels where whatever you’re talking about is going on as I’m not even sure where it is I would go to ‘go back and look’. Are there like entire communities sharing pepe memes or something?

      Pepe being a right wing meme is actually something that’s been going back over a decade now. Literally, it got so bad it was branded a hate symbol in 2016. There have been multiple news reports, documentaries, you name it. It has been completely co-opted and associated with the far right for that long.

      If you’re trying to turn it around on me and calling me the problem then you really don’t sound oblivious, you sound like a bad faith actor
