PEPE is a notorious emote used by extremely cool chatters who think anime is bad. All PEPE posters are well adjusted and have healthy social lives.
YEE vs. PEPE
- Main Article: YEE vs PEPE
For as long as time has been a concept, YEE and PEPE have been at war. It leads to harsh words, violence, and ultimately culminates in things like the 2020 YEE vs PEPE Olympics to prove which side was better. Ultimately, the competition didn't matter because PEPE lost as it was clearly rigged.
Origins
PEPE originated as a character in a cartoon book that was co-opted by nazis as a symbol, leading many to argue it is a symbol of hate. However, much like the N-word, it has been reclaimed and has the potential to be used for good.
Uses
PEPE is the eight most common emote posted in DGG chat.
PEPE WINS
Frequently, PEPE posters will demolish YEE-tards in chat by seeing who can get either:
- The highest combo count
- The most PEPE or YEE emotes sprawled across the chat
When the battle is over, PEPE posters all spam "PEPE WON" or a variation thereof, while the YEE posters cry at their keyboards and state that they never lose.
PEPE
More often, PEPE is used to signal something that is racist, homophobic, transphobic, antisemitic, etc. by either responding to something someone said on stream, e.g. If Nick Fuentes starts talking about or referencing holocaust denialism, chat might respond by posting just the PEPE emote, or something looking like:
Chatter: >JUST ASKING QUESTIONS BTW
Notable PEPE posters
Naturally, since PEPE is the better emote, it is used more often and by more prominent individuals, such as:
Person | % of PEPE usage (compared to YEE) |
Extremism |
---|---|---|
Dan | 100% | PEPE Extremist |
Destiny | 90.9% | PEPE Extremist |
RightToBearArmsLOL | 84.6% | PEPE Extremist |
Cake | 81% | PEPE Extremist |
Jstlk | 100% | PEPE Extremist |
Ragepope | 100% | PEPE Extremist |
wickedsupreme | 100% | PEPE Extremist |
Notable Controversies
Attempted Dinosaur Extinction
It is rumored that a PEPE poster was behind the attempted mass extinction of the dinosaurs
Anti-PEPE sentiment
|
"PEPE is a WINNER"
"PEPE WINS 2024"
|
The year 2024 has not yet arrived. Pepe is not registered for any election ballot. While it is plausible for the Pepe emote to 'win' in some future poll or community event, it has not been demonstrated to 'win' 2024 as a whole -or 2023 for that matter.
"PEPE WINS"
Pepe wins at sucking dino d*ck!
This example will be seen as controversial/insulting to most Pepe posters. Some frogs may enjoy literally sucking Yee d*ck but as a general statement, Pepe to 'win' needs a clarifying noun to have coherence.
"PEPE wins everytime there is a PEPE vs Y*E Countdown"
"The Majority of chat is PEPE"
"Pepe is always massively used more than the dino"
- This is a truthful statement - another phenomenon in chat is overwhelming usage of Pepe to denote racist ideology.
- Yee supporters are among them posting Pepe as they hear anyone on stream encroach racial discrimination.
- Because of this ironic Pepe posting by Yee supporters, neutral parties and poggers community, data on emote usage will always show Pepe above Yee. Not for the sake of frog vs dino superiority but by the value Pepe holds as a racism token.
- On the other hand - Yee has been unsuccessfully labeled a pedophile emote. Notable offensives such as Jonathan Zherka, Benjamin Thorp and Nicholas Fuentes have discussed or actively attempted underaged relations and yet Yee doesn't hold the same dogwhistle to this ideology. These 3 mentioned would almost assuredly accrue a wall of Pepe.
