That's a LONG story.    Hillary says pepe is a hate symbol, the original artist is a snowflake and is on the lefty side as well....  the modern pepe does not resemble what the original artist created anyway.  The internet made pepe famous, they say he helped defeat Alice in 2016.    I despise wiki, but in this case they are somewhat factual:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepe_the_Frog
