Shadilay. The smallest, yet loudest, group of left wing nuts can turn a ham sandwich on white bread into a white supremist symbol. Many still don't even realize the OK symbol was a joke on them, which they lived up to in glorious fashion. Pepe represents the smug feeling many have towards the far left, the silly they hatch up, and their 24x7 crazy. Obey, agree, don't commit wrong think, or be stained a white supremacist.

I'm not much of a person who watches documentaries but when I saw the trailer of this, I knew I had to see it. Pepe is my favorite meme of the decade and to see a movie of this was very entertaining to watch. But what interested me the most was the downward spiral of how the creators character was put into situations that the character should have never been in. The animations and transitions are astounding and the creator himself was a really interesting guy.

Watched this on PBS Independent Lense, I put it on while working and kept getting distracted because it was really good. It really show cases how out of control lonely white boys get wrapped up online in their conspiracy theories.
