I don't get it. "Let's go Brandon" is the equivalent of a silly middle school taunt.

    That's true. I know that Pepe wasn't meant as a hate symbol at all. With Brandon, it seems like a kind of appropriation that happened with the word "queer" (functionally, not saying it's the same), like "Oh yeah, you tried to turn 'Fuck Biden' into 'Let's go Brandon'? Fine, we'll use yours but will mean what we mean when we say it."

      I mean the original story of lets go Brandon is equally as boring as the hogs that chant it. It came from a football game where they got "fuck Joe biden" going as a chant and CNN basically said "boy this was a swell game, you can tell because everyone's saying let's go brandon" with 'fuck Joe biden' literally in the background.

      The hogs found it funny and they now squeal "lets go brandon" to own CNN and the libs.
