It is rare to see such a wholistic, honest, and expert approach to presenting the hive mind of the internet in film form.

And once a sign is established, its meaning is nearly impossible to change. And Pepe truly is the perfect example of semiotics theory run amok signs are images that communicate a meaning without using language that any conditioned reader will understand. He was coopted by the likes of Alex Jones and Richard Spencer, and ultimately winded up on the Anti Defamation LeagueвЂ™s list of hate symbols. He is a passive avatar, susceptible to ranges of emotional and paradigms, and when left to the uncontrollable devices of the internet, was hijacked as a symbol of white supremacy and fascism. A comic about four cool dudes who smoke weed, eat pizza, and play video games together features PepeвЂ™s friend asking why he pees with his pants pulled down and Pepe responding casually with вЂњfeels good man.вЂќ As Furie uploaded the comic to Myspace, he unwittingly offered both the frog and this phrase up for use.Д«ut without any relation to the original text, the simplicity and expressiveness of this little frog is something anyone could project onto, and subsequently relate to a peaceful smiling Pepe, or a crying Pepe, or a smirking Pepe. It begins by outlining the dangers of decontextualization of phrases and images from their origins, in this case FurieвЂ™s comic Boys Club. Considering itвЂ™s about an internet meme, the film has a very serious grasp on the power of semiotics and works hard to educate its audience about modern modes of propaganda.

Rodgers, who was transparent about his surprise then went on to spend the off season flirting with the idea of leaving the Packers. When he arrived at Green Bay in the 2020 draft, Love initially caused quite a stir in the organization as it was assumed he was acquired to replace Aaron Rodgers himself. But I prepared for this, and I'm confident in myself.' Jordan Love to be Rodgers successor?

That was my first thought, and just obviously trying to get my mind right for starting this week. I didn't know what would happen, but just hearing that, my initial thought was.wondering what would shake out with all of the close contacts and how things would break down and just affect all of us in the room. 'Just because with Kurt testing positive earlier in the week, I kind of figured something might happen in the quarterback room. 'I was a little shocked but not crazy shocked,' Love said when speaking on Rodgers' diagnosis. Love - while wearing a mask - added that though he was fully vaccinated against covid-19 the mask was part of extra precautions that had been instituted by the team this week. Love who will be making his first NFL start on Sunday away to the the Kansas City Chiefs, while starter Aaron Rodgers and third-string QB Kurt Benkert sit on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
