to me it's kind of kind the nazi bar thing. if you're at a bar with 2 Nazis, and you're not a nazi, you're still hanging out at a nazi bar.

they fucking adore this frog. no other group has embraced it as strongly or consistently. I'm quite happy to let an old ass meme die because i find it distasteful now that it's the favorite meme of nazis.

Except in this instance the bar is the meme and you can't stop the Nazis from using it no matter what you do. Even if you move on to some other meme they can just as easily follow you, now no one knows what's acceptable or not and for how long.
