Woah. I find it odd someone like that would talk openly about their “Rare Pepe”s, given their strong association with alt right/racism/nazism.

The original author of Pepe hates that his character was used in this way and has sued alt-right groups.

Twitch, Discord, and various other neutral- to left-leaning companies have user bases that use Pepe in a non-political manner.

There are strong attempts to take Pepe back. The same is happening to Moon Man.

Groups can't appropriate copyrighted works they don't own.
