The Doge meme and its cryptocurrency counterpart, Dogecoin, have gained global attention recently due to Elon Musk and the Trump administration. Musk named his proposed government agency after Doge, causing controversy in the Doge community. Some members worry that the meme's affiliation with a controversial political project could harm its inclusive and positive image. However, others see the Department of Government Efficiency's agenda as a natural progression of Doge's philosophy. The Doge community remains divided on the issue, with some expressing neutrality and others supporting the integration of Doge and politics. The group Own The Doge has not taken a stance on the matter, but would consider intervening if Atsuko Sato, the owner of the original Doge dog, wished for them to do so.
