Petition to make Doge illegal

[Galen 1,354]

Yes. This is not a joke. Someone out there actually had the bright idea to make a petition to render the Doge meme illegal in all its forms on change.org. This might be a troll for all we know, but the petition currently has over 1500 supporters as of today.

 

http://www.change.org/petitions/united-states-congress-make-the-doge-meme-illegal-in-all-forms

 

This is what I have to say about it:

 

 

 

 

Try as hard as you can people, but Doge cannot be stopped. But honestly, if something like this actually did come to pass, imagine the precedent this could set over exactly how much power the US govt could influence over any other part of the inet.

 

Obligatory Doge picture:

 

 

Mods: Apologies if this is the wrong section or another thread has already been made dealing with this. Feel free to take the appropriate action.

The comments on the petition are hilarious.

 

"Doge is possibly one of the worst things to happen to america since 9/11. It's causing our society to crumble and risks our future children's lives! We must stop doge before it brings more harm!"

 

"As we can clearly see, "Doge" has already done untold damage to our current generation of children. Not only does "Doge" promote infantile grammar, but reduces the credibility of the Shibi Inu breed by associating itself with the species and reducing something very real to a symbol of low-grade humour. A sharp wit is almost essential to thriving in our current society, filled as it is with countless advances in arts of the mind, and the traits exhibited by users of "Doge" are ill-fitted for this generation. (Lol, i'm ill-fitted?)

 

By allowing "Doge" to thrive as we are now, we are ushering in a new era of mental deficiency. The longer "Doge" remains legal, the longer our children are at risk for being affected by its many negative influences. Furthermore, if we allow it to remain legal as it is now, we are effectively saying that stupidity and ignorance are acceptable traits. By setting such an example, we are encouraging those traits in our children, and children are not young forever. When they become adults, when they marry and have kids, will our children pass the same harm that "Doge" has done to them onto their own?

 

We cannot allow "Doge" to continue influencing our children towards its destructive patterns of thinking. Allowing it to spread as it already has will begin a spiral of calamity, disorder, and ruin for generations to come. In hopes of protecting our children's future as well as their present, I wholeheartedly request that the United States Congress hereby ban all forms of "Doge" from both public and private use. Thank you."

I'm gonna sign it for the lulz

[ChoroChii 284]

What even.. 

People are just so stupid. :l

 

The owner didn't even intend for her dog to become a meme. I remember I read on Tumblr that she was going to use the popularity to raise awareness to the dangers of puppy mills or something? because the dog was saved from one, I think. I don't remember exactly what it was about because I can't find the post again but I recall the owner wanted to do something good with it's popularity.

Quick, lock the thread before doge is eliminated!

Doge is cancerous, anyways; if something like Reddit touches it, it goes to complete utter sh-
