Packing tape! Love that shit!

They said to look at each pepe on a contextual basis. Some are used for hare while most are just normal pepe memes.
Sionas
Used for hate**
hitshappens
The spokesman said. "not all pepe's are hateful, just the ones that are used in a hateful way." Well who woulda fucking guessed??
HandsomeJackBlack
Almost as if the hate speech is what's offensive and not whatever arbitrary thing it's attached to.

I'm a teacher & think of this scene about 8 times a day. I can't say it cause they won't get the reference! Am I so out of touch *trails off

Holy shit that site is pure cancer.

I never even heard of the anti defamation league before this, how are they an authority on anything? I'm assuming they're not?
HandsomeJackBlack
They are like the Al sharpton of Jews. Very pro Israel and don't care much about anything else. Armenian genocide deniers
NaughtyCannibal
So, they have no legal authority and marely advertised their opinion?
ThatGuyWhoThinksEveryoneIsAPineapple
You people are taking this far too seriously, it's an internet meme. It won't stop for a long time, being branded racist won't stop it.

Not to mention they also said most pepe use is not racist, that each one should be judged independently. It's not like they are claiming the
msu14hockey
standard pepe meme is anti-anything.

How is Pepe a hate symbol?
WalterMatthau
The people who make money from hatred have designated Pepe as hate. He isn't though, that's shit's made up.
littlelessanonymous
It's funny because the news said trolls would be laughing, my friend and I were laughing because it absolutely sounds like trolls have won
BoneThatTrombone
Someone targeted hillary Clinton using a rare pepe meme and she lobbied for it to be added to the official hate symbol list
littlegoblin
dumbasses with too much power
kasaku
People use it as a hate symbol. The ADL didn't say every use is a hate symbol.
ssmud1
Pepe lives matter.
zflazeda
Its the go to meme of racists
JudgeMentalCat
It's case of association. Lots of white supremacists on 4chan. Lots of pepe on 4chan. There is a lot of crossover there
hcar
A guy even yelled "Pepe!" When Clinton mentioned the alt right in a speech
aGrumpyPotato
It's not just 4chan tho. The Trump family popularized the meme's use as an alt-right symbol. Before that it was just a shitty meme.
Mentok
Because words are like bullets

Pepe was a 4chan thing. Pepe became mainstream. 4chan reacted by making racist Pepe stuff. Racists started using Pepe seriously.
LggiLovesNewWaveAndIndieRockPop
Now they are trying to make "google" sinonim of the n word
TheSwedishMoose
Exactly. Nobody's saying Pepe is racist, just that racist people are using Pepe as a medium.
Asteroidrules
Basically it's about as popular among neo-Nazis as the swastika. So basically exactly the same way the swastika became a hate symbol.
istealthepixelsfromreposts
Wtf? How is being popular with neo-nazis the same way as being a logo for a regime that killed millions?
BoneThatTrombone
The swastika goes back to the end of the ice age, the nazis picked it up as their power symbol because it means prosperity
ItWasMeIWasTheTurkeyAllAlong
Its not, someone has used it to spread a racist message and someone else in the press in overreacting. Now the internet is overreacting
YouWinTheInternetToday
Harambe is next. Just sayin!
JesusCrusader
The person who made the pepe white supremacist thing did it for satire
Occasionalfunnycomment
They're really going to hate terrible tiger

PEPE IS RACIST STOP THE PEPE

The Internet overreacting... every damn time.

What. The. Fuck. Did. You. Just. Say. Whore. ?.
SpaceCatJeffy
Does that mean that pepe will be rarer now?
edissick
But it have less value. Still, buy now, sell after the elections
SleeperXib
Wonderful...

It's kind of cyclic if you think about it...

Except that they said most pepe use is non-racist. They singled out actual anti-semitic, anti-Islamic, anti-black, etc usage.
441jalen
Shhh. Stop being reasonable and paying attention to facts. Only outrage and hyperbole are allowed.
iatha
Anti-Semitic and anti-Islam does not constitute racism. You can't be racist against a religion.
Hulme
It isn't strictly racist. It is however discriminatory and generally dickish, esp. in its use by basement-dwelling 'alt-right' goons.
RheaButt
That makes it worse though.. That's like saying "no, Hitler wasn't an anti Semite, he killed plenty of black and gay people too!"
Cuntard
you may be confusing religious and ethnic Jews
