“Dicks Out For Harambe” :: “Black Lives Matter”  
Is this the American 2016 equiv of bananas on football pitches and ape grunts? Convince me it’s not as simple as (and utterly fucked) it looks. ☹

Are people even still saying that? I thought “dicks out for Harambe” was strictly a summer 2016 phenomenon.

But it doesn’t surprise me in the least if some anti-BLM trolls are trying to use Harambe memes to associate black people with apes. Racist trolls gonna racist troll.
