Pepe the green frog meme’s unmitigated rise into pop culture came amid hysteria that the Internet cartoon is little more than a stand-in for white nationalism. But it turns out the original story that prompted the panic is more or less a complete troll job. The Daily Beast’s Olivia Nuzzi wrote a piece in May striving to describe and trace the genesis of Pepe in the alt-right scene, a nascent, illiberal political movement focused on preserving white identity and Western civilization. In the process, Nuzzi just ended up repeating various made-up stories from the only two people she interviewed from “Frog Twitter”: Paul Town (@PaulTown_) and Jared Taylor Swift (@JaredTSwift). ... Private conversations between Frog Twitter and Olivia Nuzzi provided to TheDCNF show the extent of the troll, which started after she began the Swift interview with, “Can I ask you some stupid questions?” Nuzzi quoted Paul Town describing how Frog Twitter met for drinks in 2015 to plot appropriating the Pepe meme for white nationalism. Frog Twitter then supposedly coordinated a group effort to seed the meme on various imageboards. “There was no ‘plot’ to take a cartoon frog and make it a symbol of white supremacy,” Paul Town told TheDCNF. “That’s absurd on the face of it.” It doesn’t get much better from there for Nuzzi’s narrative. There was no Frog Twitter meetup — they did not meet for drinks to discuss green frogs. They did not plot in 2015. There was no group experiment. They did not coordinate efforts on /r9k/ or /pol/, two imageboards on 4chan and 8chan, where memes are born and subsequently end up in the public. Jared Taylor Swift says he isn’t actually 19. He doesn’t live on the West Coast. They didn’t turn Taylor Swift, the pop singer, into an “Aryan Goddess.” View Quote I so want to have the Clinton campaign attack Taylor Swift for being a Nazi. |

Evidently there are quit a few Pepe the Frog X rated Memes out there, one was Pepe standing proud being serviced. That stupid "O" face Hitlery made with the balloons falling would be damn near perfect to photoshop latched onto Pepe's lil Pepe.....if someone was feeling creative.

I sent my 16 year old daughter a link to the page on Hillary's website. I could hear her laughing at it from the other end of the house.
HRC and crew have to be getting trolled internally by some 4chan intern working on the campaign. |

4chan is much more conservative than you'd expect, but still not what I'd call "conservative" in the traditional sense. Mostly they're just anti-SJW, which includes being anti-socialist. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

I guess my question is whether the users on 4chan are more conservative or liberal on average?

They're not an 88 site, they're not a political group, they're a bunch of anonymous people from age 13 to 90 with varying degrees of skill at photoshop, hacking, social engineering, etc, who do whatever the fuck they want because it's funny. Turning microsofts AI into a racist is not a reflection of an agenda. They did it because it was fucking hilarious to train a computer to say things that are taboo. It's the more technically challenging version of teaching your little cousin to walk into a room full of his relatives and cuss them out. |

But now what? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWppjAmYvgE View Quote Hell if I know. But I'll tell you one thing, I think you're seeing an entire subculture waging a guerrilla war with memes instead of bombs. Why are they doing it? Maybe they're sick and tired of PC bullshit. Gamergate was a taste of that. Once there was evidence of collusion with the leaked DNC emails, maybe that functioned as a magnet? Maybe they're fucking with people for the sake of fucking with people because it amuses them. Maybe they identify with Trump, as the man says what he wants and doesn't give a shit what people think? Whatever the reason, what you're watching is a leaderless online insurgency. We're not even talking cells. You're watching tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of individuals (probably way more than that) focus their efforts in one general direction right now. Obviously, since you're dealing with a mass of individuals, there's no leader to silence, no metaphorical head to cut off. That's the Pro. The Con is, without leadership, there's no one, or organization, to coordinate efforts, which can lead to obviously fractured and conflicting objectives. I could be completely wrong on any or all of this, but that's my take on it. Those ain't folks I would want to "declare war on" if I was a politician or otherwise a public figure. |

So they cower, lie, ask their friends in the media to cover up their many flaws, illnesses, and failings.

A substantial amount of folks hate Garrison because they believe he drew them and is anti Jew. Example The person who ended up getting arrested for trying to incite ISIS terrorism was also the one trolling 4chan and modifying the Garrison cartoons, was Joshua Goldberg, a Jew. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joshua_Ryne_Goldberg |
