It’s a fully unreasonable assumption because Twitter has always had a shockingly small user base and you have to be so online to know the Nazis are up to that shit. It’s a silly frog and most people use it as a silly frog.

Millions of people around the world display the swastika as a symbol of wellbeing. It’s obviously jarring as a westerner to walk into someone’s home and see that, but believe it or not the world doesn’t revolve around us and our history and the people whose symbol was STOLEN didn’t let that ruin it.

Yeah, I hate it too. I just also really hate when people see one of these niche appropriated symbols and act like it’s now a hate symbol forever. I’ve had people honest to god tell me they consider anyone who uses a Pepe the frog emote to be a Nazi and it just makes me ???

That’s ridiculous, frankly. Did you even know about this until today? How many times a day do you think people make this hand gesture or use this emoji for its universally accepted meaning? Only terminally online people are even aware of its alternate use. Don’t be a doormat.

They haven’t though. They can use whatever symbols and dog whistles they want among themselves but you can’t just roll over and hand them whatever they want. Appeasement, quite famously, does not work.

I was just thinking the same thing. It’s like talking to my grandma who definitely has dementia but refuses to go to any doctor for it besides her cardiologist. I suspect it’s the same as your mom. She gets a thought in her head and ABSOLUTELY MUST put it in your head too.

I mean, specific individuals among us could. But like, being “made up” doesn’t mean we have control over it. We can’t just stop believing in “money” and solve everything. Money is part of how our ape brains understand the world, because our civilization needs to valuate abstract concepts
