This only works if the frog's brain has been removed. Which sadly only makes it even more apt.

Furthermore, a frog placed into already boiling water will die immediately, not jump out
I wonder what nerd wrote this
Probably a herpetologist 🤷
I just started wondering about the linguistic link between herpetology and herpes and just learned a new word thanks to you
wikiblame it ;)
(yes, that exists)
It's a metaphor my dude
It's actually an apologue, but I know what you mean. Just thought I'd spread an interesting bit of knowledge I'd gained earlier today 🤷
Ughhh. I love you, tho.
Love you too, snoogums.
But your first link (!)
Apologues are fun though
Hey man, don’t do frogs this dirty. Frogs are beautiful, unlike redcaps. Just look at his face:
Makes you wonder about their obsession with pepe.
Its honestly a shame that that meme somehow became the alt-right's collective fursona
It is, but it's so apt at describing their poor misguided troll army. If I were a Russian propagandist I'd laugh everyday about how easy it is to pull marionette strings. With even an once of self reflection any poor sucker could pull themselves out of the pot.
Don’t forget that the use of Pepe as well as the ok symbol were literally 4chan troll campaigns that the nazis took to like a duck to water. I remember the origin posts being posted to reddit and just watching it work in real time. It was quite surreal.
I've not seen any far right pepe usage in literally years. But I have seen normal pepe usage being referred to as being far right.
Not accusing you of that, just anecdotally have not at all seen any kind of obsession
Exactly this. First it was illegals, then it was legal temporary, now it's bad genes.
You misspelled Klan.
KKKlan
But hey, it's just a Trump rally, I do Nazi anything to worry about here
My bad. But they did replace the grand wizard with a grand wizzer.
How is "build a wall!" the cold phase?
This is what you want to argue about?
Did I stutter, my depressed friend?
Because, “I’ll protect you from the dirty dangerous Mexicans,” is somehow the least racist thing Donald Trump has said.
Sure but the point of the frog should be: be ware of normalizing those early apprently unharmful concepts because they lead down a path.
This is on full blast from the start.
Because it's now official dem policy. Look for the other stages to be adopted as dem planks in the coming years.
Obama built more miles of wall than Trump because of various compromises. That was a decade ago so I'm curious what constitutes it being official Dem policy.
