“Kek” is for racism?

Some how i find this ironic.

I mean lets face it, the Horde represents the White Supremists worst nightmare.

Orcs are non-white aliens. Styled after Mongols.
Trolls are modeled after afro-carrabean culture.
Tauren are modeled after native american culture.
Forsaken are eurpeans who live in the innercity.
Blood Elves are modeled after middle eastern and east asian asthetics.

Meanwhile the allience is

Humans: western Europeans.
Dwarves: northern Europeans.
Gnomes: white and nerdy.
Night elves: middle class hippies.
Dreanei: eastern eurpean/east indian.

Kek is lol in orcish.

It got re-appropriated by memers. The problem is that many racists these days spend a lot of time on the Internet, especially on sites like 4Chan.

Kek: (Googled) Kek is an online term with similar meanings to LOL or haha, used especially by gamers. Since the 2016 US presidential election, the Egyptian god Kek , portrayed as Pepe the Frog, has become a symbol of the so-called “alt-right.”

I hope you’re not denying that we have a long and well-documented history of allowing people to co-opt symbols instead of standing up to the jackwagons.

If you had read any of my posts in this thread at all, you would not be trying to argue with me on this issue.

To save you the time, no, that’s not what I said.

Its all ridiculous. I’m not going to start hating donkeys because a certain political hate group uses that as their symbol. Kek is just a sound in the horde language, nothing more.

your name stands out a symbol for that comment. A very small portion of the world when asked the swastika, does not say it’s a symbol used by Hitler and White supremacy, the rest will immediately tell you what it was and is still used for.

Google is no one’s friend. Never let them infiltrate any of your computers.
