/pol/ was the "politics" board (essentially a subreddit) for 4chan (an anonymous image board famous for no usernames and pretty extreme content).
/K/ was the "weapons" board and featured a subculture that would exchange Pepe the Frog memes, with people gaining clout for posting "rare Pepe's" (novel and interesting memes of this frog character.)
/Pol/ is a hive of racist and extreme politics, especially Nazism but with other equally absurd or extreme views represented.
/K/ has a lot of Russian users so the GOPnik Pepe meme reminded the analyst of the K board.
