Pepe the Frog is listed as a hate symbol by the Anti-Defamation League

I think this was mentioned in the election thread, but it's so mind-numbingly stupid that I feel like it deserves it's own thread. The Anti-Defamation League (or ADL) has listed Pepe as a hate symbol.

However, because so many Pepe the Frog memes are not bigoted in nature, it is important to examine use of the meme only in context. The mere fact of posting a Pepe meme does not mean that someone is racist or white supremacist. However, if the meme itself is racist or anti-Semitic in nature, or if it appears in a context containing bigoted or offensive language or symbols, then it may have been used for hateful purposes.

I mean, I appreciate that they included this part, but they're also admitting that Pepe isn't actually a racist meme, just one that's occasionally hijacked by racists. That kind of defeats the purpose of the article.

As it turns out college is actually the biggest meme.

I found some dank memes I want to share (some of them have to do with the article Hillary's campaign put out because I'm too lazy shitpost in both threads)

(I love this picture because it has both a Ben Garrison cartoon and a Jojo's Bizarre Adventure reference)
