Oh man, Gamer Culture, ya know, the thing that brings millions (probably close to a billion) together to form something of a collective, all in the goal of getting something new and better, to advance technology so that they and many others can enjoy the fun of playing games.

How dumb are most readers on here and the staff at Kotaku/Gawker? Why can’t these so called reporters and journalists do their actual job and look into things? Pepe the Frog is not racist, nor an Alt-Right image.

you should just delete this article, what you wrote is a waste of time.

People have more time to act like pussies now than they did 20 or 30 years ago.

The loudest voices are western white people, not actual targets of supposed racism.

There are SO many things wrong with this article.

People are just big pussies. Anything and everything will offend them.

It wasnt adopted by the alt right, if anything it was given to them. Places like Kotaku gave them the power to use it that way by insisting thats what it was. What about all these people using Pepe in non racist ways? Guess that doesnt matter because some media outlets decided to label it as an alt right symbol…

““Ugandan Knuckles,” a meme that became racist for reasons that are excruciating to explain”

It’s racist, trust us 

....The creator of the film “Who Killed Captain Alex” is more than ok with the meme. Doing an accent is not racist. The meme is just about having fun and being goofy. Don’t get offended by everything.

hahahahaahhahahaahhahahahahahhaahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahahahhahahhahahahhahahahhahaahhahaahhahahhahah

I wondered how long Kotaku would take to latch onto the moronic belief that Ugandan Knuckles was racist. Literally the only people who claimed that was a bunch of idiot furrys who probably didn’t like a Sonic character being a meme.

OMG i’m so Triggered!! This is the type of garbage article from pussies who cannot handle the internet. Just shut the fuck up.

So what happens when the alt right adopts an Overwatch character and heavily uses it in their memes? Is the League going to ban that character? Just because some racists use a character in their meme doesn’t mean that the character is racist.

“Much like Pepe the Frog”

So... If someone were to co-opt an Overwatch character and create a racist meme with it on 4chan, would the Overwatch League be forced to ban that character for being a racist meme? This is getting really out of hand. These posters aren’t racist just because they use a character that was co-opted by other people.

Whether or not you like the meme or not, Uganda Knuckles isn’t a racist meme. Imitating an accent does not mean someone is pretending to be dominant over another race. This is an excellent video on the topic.

Stop virtue-signaling and chill the heck out. They are *jokes*. Talking in a bastardized Ugandan accent is *not* racist. Making Ebola jokes is *not* racist. By throwing everything under the racist bus you do a disservice to real, brutal racism.

Nah, anime is an industry for internal consumption. Not our problem you import it to your shit country and twist everything up.

Clearly not the US
