A simple printed flier, including an image of Pepe The Frog, caused the brainless leftists at the Folsom Lake College, in California, to call the police and put the campus on “heightened alert”.
CA Folsom Lake College Locks Down Campus Over Printed Image of Pepe The Frog
“Pepe has been commonly co-opted by white supremacists and others as a symbol of bigotry”
I actually find it quite amusing to see what the left will next attribute to racism. Some of the latest are, of course, ‘Make America Great Again’ hats (or anything related to President Trump), being White, being a Republican, the OK sign with your hand, and apparently anything even remotely frog-like is enough to cause a complete panic and meltdown in the feeble minds of the so-called “academics” in California.
And THESE are the people teaching the kids? No wonder why California is considered the “Asshole of America”, and gets worse by the day.
A printed out picture of Pepe the Frog posted next to a flier warning against “fascist dog whistles” prompted a California college to contact local police, put the school on “heightened alert,” and send out a letter to the community warning about the potential threat posed by white supremacists.
The image of the Alt-Right meme was found on February 6 posted on the door of a Folsom Lake College faculty member in between fliers listing “fascist dog whistles,” social justice events, and promoting the “always antifascist” Democratic Socialists of America, Campus Reform reports.
In an emailed letter to the campus community titled “Hate Has No Home On Our Campus,” FLC President Whitney Yamamura, Academic Senate President Paula Haug, Classified Senate President Lindsey Campbell, and Student Senate President Cameron Sanders explained the reason the college felt compelled to take action over the image.
“[Pepe] has been commonly co-opted by white supremacists and others as a symbol of bigotry,” reads the letter. “While we do not immediately know the intentions of the person(s) who posted the picture, we are treating this incident with the highest level of seriousness and have already conducted a sweep of all Folsom Lake College campuses to look for other instances of these materials.”
The letter goes on to encourage students to report any other evidence of “hateful or bigoted” messaging, but also stresses the college’s commitment to supporting free speech.
“We believe that we can create an environment free of hateful language or symbols while still supporting the rights afforded to us in the First Amendment,” the letter reads. “Folsom Lake College has always been, and must continue to be, a place for collegial and mature conversation about complex issues. As a college, we are committed to providing a safe and inclusive learning and working environment, as demonstrated from our ongoing professional development workshops and trainings related to equity and inclusion.”
