We all know Salon is one of the biggest sources of lulz in terms of politics, but this article literally takes the cake. Salon, specifically Amanda Marcotte, is pretty much admitting that she is against free speech, and that she wants anything negative about Muslims or anything that triggers SJW's to be banned completely from the internet. But wait it gets even better:
>This is one reason, no doubt, that the racial slur “dindu” and images of the Pepe the Frog figure have become so popular in white supremacist circles online. These words and images are new and therefore not well known outside of white supremacist circles, making it that much harder for moderation software and even human beings to interpret them correctly as hate speech and flag them for removal. Should the public start recognizing these signposts as well as they do the N-word or more famous racist imagery, white supremacists will just come up with some new racial slurs and images to communicate their ideas while avoiding moderators.
So yes, Pepe the Frog is now consider a meme for white supremacists according to Salon. The whole article is beyond hilarious, and it just shows you how much the left despises freedom of speech
>Liberals can't fight memes.

Banning every word in the dictionary won't stop niggers from acting like niggers. They fundamentally misunderstand the root of the problem.
FREE SPEECH ENDS WHERE MY FEELINGS BEGIN!

>the symbol of white supremacy is pepe now
Just think about it - 10 years from now, the symbol of the people who want the supremacy for white people over other genders will be the image of a frog.

Death to the black gender! Heil Pepe!
>>75765357
>bigot
Literally means nothing to me
Salon should start with erasing themselves
This won't last you know.
As soon as this shit affects other people's lives people will revolt.
Nobody is in favour of such crap like this.
Its kind of like the feminists who preach white men must die, but crave white cock like a white woman craving white cock.
>I tried
>>75765357
You cant stop the avalanche of toxic sludge.
Over 5000 niggers shot other niggers in 2011, meanwhile the US biggest problem is people saying hurtful things on the Interwebs.
Literally memes are more important than lives in this topsy turvy world.
>>75766456
It's not about what you are, it's about how other people see you.

antigentilism is the new antisemitism
>pepe is racist
I'm an oldfag, I've been here since before Chanology, but I've barely been paying attention to the new memes, so please level with me here.
Pepe.
What does it really mean?
What is the Pepe context?
And yes I know Pepe is technically an old meme, but back then it was just "Feels good, man", now it's different and I don't understand it.
>>75766955
Pepe is the promise of retribution and the howling of the beast.
Fucking Americans just kill yourselves already
>>75765357
I think we need to ban words because white supremacists can just create new words that end up hurting people. We need a legal dictionary that says which words can be used and only those words can be used. This is how we promote justice!
Definitely not 1984 AT ALL. It's just reality. Besides, even if it were 1984 (and it isn't) what is so bad about 1984 if it gets rid of racism? Well worth the cost.
>>75765357
She lacks a theory of language and information. Slurs are simply packages for memetic information. Destroy the package and the contents remain and are simply repacked in a different form.
So are they saying black people are not dindus?
So they did the crime?
>darkness befell the meme land and even the elite poo poo pee pee legions were unable to stop the normie onslaught

Pepe is the incarnation of Kek on this earth
>>75766371
This.
What's looked down upon is the condition, not the word used to describe the condition.
>>75766955
There is no deep meaning behind pepe, he just makes faces that we find appropriate for situations (usually smugness or rage).
He's easy to draw / modify, so lots of people do, slipping him into new images and using him in new contexts whenever it seems appropriate. At one point Pepe went mainstream, but we successfully clawed him back by putting out pepe memes too extreme for normies.
Kek the egyptian frog god is different though. There is deep meaning behind Kek. We summoned Kek with Pepe. Kek is the source of our meme magic.
>>75766955
>implying Pepe still doesnt "Feels good, man"
>>75765357
>writes about /pol/
>doesn't call out /pol/ or 4chan directly
see, if she wants to do it right, she should address the meme masters correctly and point them out. wasted effort.
Dindu is now mainstream? That's great.
>>75766955
Wojak (feels guy) and sad/happy frog Pepe underwent a meme fusion where Wojak would typically be in a losing/bad/uncomfy situation and Pepe would be directly responsible for it while being smug.
Over time the meme evolved with Wojak becoming somewhat bro with Pepe even though the frog made him miserable. Pepe on his side underwent so many situations (he really is an OC generator for anons) basically anything can be memed with him. In the end Pepe has many similarities with Douglas in the movie Falling Down except he is a high functioning smug shitposting frog instead of going into regular conventional madness.

>Take, for instance, this horror story about a gorilla at the Cincinnati Zoo
>The parents in this case are black, and the whole online (and now mainstream media) outrage is a fairly obvious case of a bunch of mostly white people exploiting this horrible tragedy to push racist notions about the unfitness of black parents.
Didn't Black Twitter start it? They were blaming white parents before it turned out the kid was black.

I don't know why but that reminded me of Narnia for some reason.

Wanting to control and censor speech is fascism. Whether they want to admit it or not, this politically correct bullshit they propagate is fascism in disguise and anti-freedom.
When you want to start banning words and taking away the freedom of people to say their opinions, you are doing the same thing Hitler did in Germany and Stalin did in Russia. At least these evil "white supremacists" or so they label them actually engage in the discussion and attack the topics.
The only way to fight against speech you disagree with is to engage in discussion with people; or you can always ignore them and carry on with your day. These people are so butthurt though they instead want the speech censored and controlled, which is a slippery slope and 100% without a doubt part of the Fascist and Marxist ideology.
Freedom>Their feelings and many on their side would agree with this. Also the fact they categorize people into the "white supremacist" groups and certain images just for giving statistics against mass immigration and muslims and against feminism is ridiculous. They should be trying to attack the core of these arguments and disprove them instead of using "muh racism" and "muh feelings" and trying to play the high ground like they don't have to engage because to them it's so "racist and crazy" History will look down on these people.
The fact these people are still functioning human beings is what amazes me, or the fact they are even in positions to write these online news stories.

>Protestors will be wearing Pepe masks in the future.
>bigotry
ˈbJɡətri/
noun
intolerance towards those who hold different opinions from oneself.
How will this affect the value of my super rare pepes,?

So how long before the Hulkster finally buries these bastards?
In a small town in Oxfordshire, if you were to visit All Saints' Church and lightly press your ear to the ground there is a distinct possibly that you may heard a quiet, repeating, tapping noise. It would be George Orwell masturbating in his grave, saying "I told you cunts. I fucking told you."
>>75768481
That's Gawker idiot. But yeah it would be nice for Salon to go bankrupt
>>75765357
Reminds me of that one part in the NWA movie where the Jewish manager wants to sue Cube for a diss on Vaseline, instead of getting the rest to diss him back

Fuck "freedom". My freedom today is dependent on the bipolar moods of the ignorant masses. You have to take away their freedom, leaf.
>>75766955
pepe has moved far beyond the confines of what can be defined and transformed into a truly "meta" meme.
>>75768479
turn them in m8, they're banned now
no one needs assault memes
What Hillary is actually trying to write through Salon is there is a freedom of speech crisis, and not enough people are bing brainwashed into her agenda.
>>75765357
>the internet's bigot crises
Has this crisis been going on for 20 years now? Because the internet has pretty much been the same since forever. Safe space fags need to fuck off.
The ultimate hilarious irony is that these so-called anti-bigotry advocates are actually bigots, themselves.
Suppressing opinions they dislike.

When did RACIST become the new ultimate evil?
Whenever liberals want to describe their "enemy" it ALWAYS includes a "racist" label. I see no lynchings, I see no racial laws (no black white water fountains), I see no modern institutions that discriminate AGAINST people of color (BUT HELL yes they have AFFIRMATIVE ACTION (anti-white)).
Muslim Extremist have literally started selling SLAVES, public executions for "heresy" and tossing homosexuals off of buildings, BUT RACIST are the main problem???!!!!
>>75766677
It's racism all over again

Bigot to them means a white person who hasn't been brainwashed into erasing their own identity. They would silence victims of rape gangs and violence with their brand of fascism. Fuck them.

When I want to prove a point to leftists, I use sources like Salon. For example, if there's an article on the EU finding Poland amiss on rule of law (which there is), I'll share the Salon link with my positive opinion on national sovereignty and negative opinion of the EU. It actually works, despite being an incredibly simple technique. Everyone is convinced I'm a rampant leftist despite me constantly spewing anti left views, and I even get hardcore marxist retards to agree with me most of the time.
From time to time I throw in more obscure links, because it makes me seem more knowledgeable than average. I especially like sharing foreign (especially foreign language) links about an issue and then talking about how idiotic it is in detail. I can't be accused of not understanding their culture at that point, because my views are ostensibly their own.
>>75765357

>>75769575
They go for the "no tolerance for intolerants" meme. The same cry that St Just used in the French Senate a the beginning of the reign of Terror.
It's self defeating but it somehow alleviates the feelings they would have if they didn't deny the fact they are authoritarians.
Mfw Salon lynchings
>>75765357
The entire thing is rich with hilarious semantic switchbacks.
She's admitting that she thinks speech should be limited as much as she admits that's logistically impossible.
I remember when tyrants were actual and not delusional e-mobs of women and retards.
