    Pretending Pepe wasn't a bigger proponent of Twitch culture is cope.

    Pepe was just used by all terminally online people.

    I wasn't on /pol/, that's right. I preferred to watch war videos on live leak without any comments on.

    Pepe was bloody everywhere, acting like your corner of the internet was special in that regard is just lacking perspective. Memes spread through internet spaces, terminally online people interact with a slew of other terminally online people. Which then spread any funny or cool idea on to others.

    Normie's aka mainstream media just didn't interact with pepe before they started reporting on events happening on /pol/. And coined it a 4chan exclusive, because they didn't care about any other corner online
