Based Pepe (0x52)

Meme

Why Pepe?

From the early Boy's Club days with Matt Furie in 2005 and it's usage on boards like 4chan and MySpace, to the alt-right movement and label as a hate symbol (2015-16), OWL and Twitch ban on Pepe's usage (the FreePepe movement), to it's resurgence as an icon of hope and solidarity at the 2019-20 Hong Kong protests and reclamation by a new generation.

Pepe has immortalised it's place among denizens of the internet and continues to evolve onto new platforms.

@jessepollak understands the cultural movement behind memes, how it brings us together and allows us to express ourselves across language barriers. It's an almost religious experience.

No cooked meta, just a clean, canonical, fun-loving green frog 🐸

Why Pepe and Why I Pepe.

The lore around a meme is incredibly important. To each their own, value is in the eye of the beholder etc but you can keep your overcooked, obscure, forced and super dank meta. 

Give me something with provenance, history, an honest vibe and solid narrative.
