>>245765Doge has been a dead meme but I think pepe is still usable and it's able to be soulful, normies aside from twitchniggers avoid pepe because they fell for the psyop and believe he is a dog whistle for white supremacist ideology. I doubt they still actively believe it but they fell for it in 2019 or so and it stuck
That said some of the newer variants of pepe are a little cringe because they follow the soybaba philosophy of meme creation where the joke is primarily defined by iteration on a pre-existing variant rather than creating a new variant using creativity and the indomitable human spirit or somesuch and that's why this funky alien pepe hits a lot harder than some recycled variant like aryan pepe smoking a comically large pipe or somesuch
