I asked why the lefties associate pepe with hatespeech and someone sent me this: https://youtube.com/watch/...
I'm somehow more confused

awwww this is cute: https://youtube.com/watch/...

is the world being run by 4chan now
I think it might be

I read your first paragraph and was equally confused, then my brain went "is it 4chan? It's 4chan isn't it".

It's not so much that it's run by 4chan, but this explains it better than me https://youtube.com/shorts/...

Super interesting channel.

@atheist troll came from irc lol

a lot of those aren't Gen z...

I am older than this man

I don't even think we had iPhones yet when Rick rolling was passing by

so even Rick rolling is older than Gen z

why are the kids taking credit for my generation

---

gen z is 1997 to 2010s

Rick rolling was 2006

iPhone was 2007 (first meaningful cellphone, before then it was very rare and odd)

so unless gen z was rickrolling off of dialup desktop computers when they were 9 I don't think so

Pepe is the symbol of frens (intentional spelling) banding together to reject the color revolution (woke shit). It is used in memes constantly for this purpose. It also has biblical connotations of the frogs being a plague to Pharaoh. Who was specifically violating the will of God.

It is regarded as an army of fren frogs. That fight a battle of Good vs Evil. Frens are against people on the wrong side of history. People that support all the evil shit that governments do when trying to take more power. Frens are a symbol of warriors in the meme war. The meme war is 5th generational warfare. It is fought in the minds of people.

People who regard Pepe as a hate symbol are typically pro government taking more power or pro MSM narrative. Frens are not exclusive and work to "wake" people up from the mind control of media and governments. Kind of the symbol for anti indoctrination.

I consider myself a fren and hang out in fren circles. We wait for people to escape the matrix.

@Demolishun oooh that's a much better answer than I was getting elsewhere

I keep hearing about 5th generation warfare but I found no books on the matter

@jestdotty

https://jeffreyprather.com/ this guy used to be on youtube. Kept telling too many things youtube didn't like so they kicked him out. He introduced me to the term over 4 years ago.

explains that music video. vibes

@jestdotty I am guessing other people have different takes on Pepe.

@Demolishun they just weren't making sense. associated with trump, a guy pointed to that Egyptian god but that didn't make sense. he believes in egregores (thoughtform gods that are made by culture), thinks it's a rebirth of the old Egyptian god, but the Egyptian god was just a general god of chaos, and that music video wasn't chaos magic associated, it seemed more like consciousness enlightenment but the guy never validated that so he mustn't be aware of it.

I've been in chaos magic circles and they're actually the ones calling themselves the illuminati and focus on disgust demons, degeneracy, and were behind those insulting ceremonies at the Olympics and all that. those people wouldn't be de-occulting others, they like deception, so totally wrong answer

your answer makes far more sense

Egyptian God had a snake head. snakes are either whispering demons or those who de-occult knowledge so authority has less control over people. but when I brought that up this guy said nothing also

@jestdotty so John Podesta had some number written on his hand. It referred to the missing piece of a Pharaoh that was chopped up. It was his penis. There is also some obsession with Pharaohs or old Egyptian religion by some people. Like worshiping the old gods or something.

@Demolishun chaos magicians do that a lot

they borrow gods and symbols from any cultures they find. if it works it works. nothing is off limits, everything is permitted, is their slogan. pretty sure I was remembering that wrong so googled it and evidently there's a "nothing is true, everything is permitted" quote in assassin's creed. but some famous chaos magician had this written in an old book decades ago, and it's their creed

they will borrow gods or even make them. it doesn't matter. they're advised to scour anything for anything that works

who the hell is podesta. climate diplomat, inflation reduction act. sounds like a Soros stooge

@jestdotty right hand dude to Hillary Clinton. I don't know his job, but he came out and told the crowd that Hillary conceded.

not "the lefties", but only some social-media-brainrotted snowflakes.

you know - the same kinda zero-brains who, with just another result of a coinflip, would buy "MAGA"-hats instead.

I only knew one girl that cared about pepe. She was polish and grew up in a cult. Nice girl, a bit crazy.

@tosensei exactly. Real socialism is national otherwise it's just communism

@antigermgerm shut up.

@tosensei Of course sir I shut up now.

Anyway what do you think of the Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance? Real question

@antigermgerm a party that is _named_ after one person? how could it be any more self centric, and how could any sane person vote this?

@tosensei maybe it's ok to be self-centric 😇

maybe communities are made up of individuals, and to be socially inclusive means each person has to be an individual first so they can find their niche in the community, to be something to know their interconnection junctions amongst others who are also a something!

@jestdotty yeah.. of course you think your main character trait is "maybe okay" ;)

@tosensei I don't know what that means

@jestdotty not sure if i could dumb it down enough, sorry.
