An anti-immigration advocacy account created a viral AI image of a large, evidently prosperous colony of penguins gathered under the banner of multiculturalism.
It reads that as a giant banner.
juxtaposed to a lone penguin facing the mountains and a sign reading, Remigration Now.
Across the pond, the London mayoral candidate for the far-right Reform Party in the UK, Lila Cunningham, copied Trump's version of the penguin meme with an artificial image of her holding hands with a penguin walking towards some snowy mountains surrounding the Tower Bridge in London.
The caption reads, "'Choose a new path for London before it's too late.'"
The last Penguin post we'll consider is a video edit from the Department of Homeland Security.
It starts like many of the viral TikTok and Reels videos with footage and narration from Herzog's documentary, which I will finally play here.
After the narration cuts out, the music continues as a fan cam style montage plays Trump, military helicopters, SWAT style home raids, and ICE and Border Patrol arresting people.
The video is captioned, Americans have always known why, in response to Herzog's query.
This post from the DHS asserts that part of the essence of America is breaking away from the herd and forging your own path.
Those who don't understand Trump's desire to control Greenland at the risk of further damaging our geopolitical standing just suffer from herd mentality and will never be strong enough to take the kind of risks that are core to the existence of this country.
On January 24th, the White House posted, the penguin does not concern himself with the opinions of those who cannot comprehend.
For Trump, Venezuela, Greenland, imperial expansion is an existential mission to achieve some mythic frontier greatness and only true Americans can understand why.
The Fox News Penguin op-ed by Christian nationalist Sean Duffy's daughter, wow, that's a nightmare sentence, reads, quote, "'For Trump, the penguin is an apt symbol for the president's decade-long fight against the radical left.
Everything Trump does is opposed by the global power brokers.
Even the president's push to obtain Greenland has been fanatically opposed by hysterical European elites.'"
America was built by penguins, and by that I mean rebels, pilgrims, frontier men and women, conquistadors and cowboys.
We are a nation founded by risk-takers who left the colony for the mountains.
We are descended from men who suffered and died to carve civilization out of wilderness.
