Pepe the frog is from the Boys Club, a comic or children’s book; I don’t know, it just had a couple talking animals. The first picture of him with the feels good man caption was very silly and took off from there. Unfortunately pepe became a hate symbol after 15 years.

Pepe has a weird history. I hate that people used him for hate because he’s just a silly little guy. I don’t know if he’s still viewed as such in popular culture.

  I’ve heard that a lot, but never seen it used “for hate”. What if we just take him back?

    You’re lucky to not have been exposed to those people.
    
    But yes. Take him back by making him cute
