Lmao, what a wild assumption that they could take whatever icons they like, with no basis in reality.
that’s…. exactly what they do buddy. you don’t seem the type to care for counter-examples so i won’t even try and list any of the many, many fucking instances of this happening irl
Just off the top of my head those are a few. And that’s with people holding the line and continuing to use these symbols without hate. We don’t need more people defending their claims.
The only person in this thread who seems intent on pepe being about hate speech is you. I’ve been asked in some formal settings to avoid using the OK hand sign in case it sends the wrong message. I’ve been advised by tattoo artists to avoid Nordic symbols despite the fact that I’m of Scandinavian descent. You’re enabling the worst kind of people to decide what symbols mean in our culture. Why?
The top level comment is a 15:65 ratio, and that is in the context of a meme utilizing pepe.
Where did you study Futhark and why do you want them on your skin? Some of my ancestors were latin but you won’t see me getting a pheonician or greek alphabet on my fingers.
Degenerate, 88, 14, the Roman salute, multiple names, the fascista, shaven heads, lighting motifs, runic symbols.
That’s just what I came up with off the top of my head. The other person is right, and I say we should reclaim every symbol because those fuckers shouldn’t be allowed to call anything their own or have anything to ralley around or identify each other with. The only symbol I’m aware of that the made was the black sun which is itself simply the ss symbol repeated around a circle, which itself is an appropriated rune.
88, the Roman Salute, a couple of names, and double lightning aren’t acceptable and it can stay that way without any harm. Why do you even want those things? It serves no good.
Shaven heads, runes, 14, and the word Degenerate are all fine without additional context, but the first 3 can certainly be red flags in the presence of additional factors.
They should have symbols to call their own, so we can easily identify and target them.

Ohmygod you’re right just look at the countless examples:
Pepe the Frog 2015
Swastika 1907
…
??
They can really just take whatever they want! /sarcasm

The difference is that none of these things are widely considered hate speech. Pepe is.

Reclaim every symbol.
I do believe 88 was just 2x the 8th letter of the alphabet which is H, which was short for what they say in the Hitlergruß.
This is a perfectly reasonable explanation to me and fits too well for this to seem like a coincidence.

That’s your position. Not mine. They can’t have shit, because I won’t let them
