i feel bad for the artist. that was his art. his little guy, his creation. it was taken from him. i cant imagine losing a piece of your art to some of the worst types of people humanity has to offer.
also i know its semantics but the frog in the OP is a peepo, not Pepe. im pretty sure peepo massively increased in popularity from the Frenworld/Honkler nazi subreddits
fuck this nazi frog
Turn off your TV bud.
No. Fuck the nazis that tried to take Pepe from us.

The original artist is trying to reclaim pepe from hate groups, and imo has created some cool animations in doing so
a year later:

I don’t think Matt furie has actually abandoned pepe. He has posted his own pepe animations around 2021, which is still pretty recent.
E.g.

This! Ffs, pepe is one of the best memes ever
