    They did, totally. There was a posting war sometime back that reclaimed him because the alt right sucks so fucking bad. They still try to use it, even Alex Jones tried to sell stuff with it but he got sued by the actual original artist and had to settle for couple million 15k

      The lawsuit was settled for $15,000 not millions. I would have been psyched if the artist got millions out of it, but it didn't happen. https://www.theverge.com/2019/6/10/18660312/infowars-pepe-the-frog-settlement-copyright-meme-alex-jones

        Oh my bad, I'm dumb. I think he did try to get a lot more, his lawyers worked pro bono and for whatever reason I thought it was a lot more. Thanks
