The Chingari Chaubey (2023) S02 Hindi Web Seriescreator of Pepe the Frog just scored a victory in his fight to scrub the hatred that's come to be associated with the famous meme.

Matt Furie, the meme's creator (who also killed off Pepe in May and is now trying to rehabilitate the character's image after it was adopted by the alt-right) has settled a lawsuit filed against Eric Hauser, the author of the controversial alt-right children's book The Adventures of Pepe and Pede, Motherboard reported.

As part of that settlement, Hauser's book will be pulled from shelves, and all profits from Pepe and Pedewill go to the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).

The profits only amounted to $1,521.54, one of Furie's lawyers told Motherboard, but it's still a victory for Furie.

"He's been really disheartened by the whole thing," one of Furie's lawyers, Louis Tompros, told Motherboard.

"He has a child [and] seeing his character used in a nasty, hateful way towards children was particularly a problem. I think he was, and is, happy that we've reached a result that addresses this particular problem. I think he is still disheartened by the way Pepe is being used in the media and is willing and able to respond to that aggressively. That's his plan. He doesn't want his rights and pepe to be used and misused by the alt-right."

Hauser has denied being Islamophobic or a member of the "alt-right," despite the beliefs that appear to be represented in the book. According to theDallas Morning News, he said he "wrote the story to fill a void in conservative children's books. He said his book featured themes of nationalism, unity, and truth."

Furie's lawyers, Tompros and Don Steinberg, told Motherboardthat the intellectual property case was "a slam dunk." The book made Pepe out to be Islamophobic and a follower of the "alt-right," according to Motherboard.

"It's an important issue," Tompros told Motherboard. "The frog symbol has gotten appropriated by the alt-right and used for some very hateful and nasty purposes. There's the Richard Spencer interview that went viral where he was advocating white supremacy and got punched in the face. He was doing that in the course of explaining with Pepe meant."

Tompros and Steinberg said Hauser admitted to the infringement. And the book's illustrator, Nina Khalova, reportedly shared documents with Motherboardwriter Matthew Gault, that included instructions for the alligator in the story Alkah (whom is thought to be modeled after Allah) to be decked out in a robe and full beard.

The directions also included instructions for Khalova to completely copy Pepe the Frog's design.
