        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.
