man I kept scrolling through a lot of nazi groups, report them, look at what other groups their members had subscribed to and repeat.
Unless they openly said "we are nazis and hate x" nothing would happen. Worst were the DoD:S groups openly larping as SS commandos, but they're just "roleplaying" I guess and never got removed.
The "Pepe the Frog" meme and Swastikas were the most common extremist or hateful symbols on Steam, representing almost 55% and 9% of all extremist symbols detected, respectively.
Some symbols, like the sonnenrad and Totenkopf, are explicitly extremist, while others, like Pepe, are often used by extremists, but their use alone does not signal extremist ideologies.
So Pepe is a "extremist or hateful symbol", but its "use alone does not signal extremist ideologies". I'm confused.
Pepe is not a hate symbol, it's heavily tied to the meme culture and its usage is way beyond any extremists group's control.
ADL and some other groups got absolutely clowned on a number of years ago when they declared pepe a racist hate symbol, and instead of backing down they just keep trying to quietly push it again.
You can pretty safely ignore them.
Pepes are like a stetson hat and big belt buckle: not explicitly a symbol of shitty politics, but most popular with people who have them.
