Pepe emotes have been banned on blizzards official discord due to a formal complaint by the ADL.

Barn bros why would they ban an emote that promotes diversity and inclusion? This is a blatant attack on our freedom of speech and we should all take a stand against this grave injustice!

Why does the Anti Defecation League hold so much sway over blizzard?

Pepe the frog. It's a frog that symbolizes peace and unity but blizzard just banned it in their official discord.

Help me Fren I'm new to all of this, what makes a user racist if they post a frog emote? Is there some underlying nuance to the emote that blizzard wants banned?

Is it because the adl helped develop diablo 4 and therefore can make marketing decisions on blizzards behalf?

I'm just so confused as to why they would ban trading and frogs
