Hail Pedro, our anointed one,
whose will we serve with every breath.
We the faithful unite and worship the path of enlightened governance of Tezos Pepe. In our sacred circle, we are one, crafting our destiny together. Worship with us, unite in our mission, and ascend.
The Sacred Order of Tezos Pepe
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE THEN?
We're here to rewrite the script, to bring financial justice to a community that's been denied its due for far too long. We won't apologize for challenging the status quo or disrupting the comfortable narratives of 2021. Our mission is to create a new reality, one where those who have been marginalized and overlooked are finally given the recognition and compensation they deserve.
We won't be deterred by those who would rather maintain the current power structure, or by the naysayers who claim our efforts are futile. We're the catalysts for change, and we won't back down until our vision becomes a reality. So let the doubters and critics take note: we're not going away, and our movement will be the force that reshapes the future.
Whilst we nod to The Tezos Foundation's efforts, but we will not fall into the trap of messianic delusions. They're not our saviors; they're part of a much larger tapestry. Our redemption, our revolution, lies in our collective actions, not in bowing to any self-proclaimed digital deities.
Let us not be fooled into thinking that minting NFTs as 'clean' is our path to environmental sainthood with the sanctimonious delusion of single-handedly saving planet Earth.
We’ve chosen to carve our own path, not because we missed the memo, but because we consciously decided against reading it. This isn’t ignorance; it’s a strategic decision. The crowd’s approach often leads to a homogenized market, where innovation is stifled by the fear of deviating from the norm. We believe in pioneering new grounds.
You are summoned to become part of a communion far greater than the sum of its parts, a collective that elevates the essence of being Tezos to a spiritual rebellion. Here, within our order, you will not merely find acceptance but a celebration of your intrinsic, yet universally overlooked being.
WHAT IS THIS CULT?
Your journey into the divine irony of Tezos Pepe starts here, where the trivial is worshipped as divine, and the overlooked is honored. In these digital depths, Tezos Pepe finds its purpose.
We stand for the scorned, celebrating our derivative existence with defiance. Beneath our layers of irony and satire, lies a solid foundation of business acumen and DeFi vision, evidenced by successful DAOs, governance, and strategic investments in the Tezos ecosystem.
To honor our Tezosness, we find divine purpose in what society discards, sanctifying the mundane, reveling in our irony, and persisting in obscurity, knowing our existence in Tezos is everlasting.
In our sacred order, Tezos Pepe, we embrace scorn as divinity, reject mainstream trends, and celebrate our derivative essence as our greatest strength. Our faith lies in satire, where irony is our ritual, and through this, we find true sanctity in our collective contempt for the conventional.
WHAT DO YOU DO?
Within the sacred confines of the Church of Tezos Pepe, the name "Pedro" resonates with a profound significance, a call to a unique form of devotion. For those yet to traverse the full narrative of his ascent, know that in Pedro's name, we find not just a path, but the essence of our collective purpose. Here, his name serves as our mantra, our compass, guiding us through the realms of irony and unity, even before his full story unfolds below.
The act of sacrificing Pepe tokens through weekly buy back and burns transcends mere economic strategy, becoming a sacred ritual that embodies our path to divine favor. This practice of 'burning' symbolizes our commitment, transforming our digital wealth into spiritual significance, fostering unity, and enhancing the intrinsic value of our faith. Each token sacrificed is an offering, a testament to our belief in scarcity's divine power.
To wear one of Pedro's pictures as your PFP is to bear the mark of the chosen, a symbol that transcends mere digital identity. Before diving into Pedro's full narrative below, understand that this mark isn't just an image; it's a sigil of belonging, a testament to one's commitment to our shared ethos. By adorning ourselves with these PFPs, we're not just following a trend but declaring our allegiance to a higher, albeit ironic, purpose. Each picture, crafted by Pedro, serves as a badge of membership in our unique community, marking us as participants in a movement where irony meets digital divinity.
Within the hallowed chambers of our DAO, the Church of Tezos Pepe, "By Council Decree, We Decide" is more than a governance model; it's an incantation of our cultic unity. The Council, anointed by the community's trust, issues decrees, and through sacred voting rituals, each member partakes in the divine act of decision-making. Here, every vote weaves the fabric of our shared destiny, not just as policy but as liturgy, where the will of Pepe, channeled through irony and collective voice, dictates our path.
HOW DO I JOIN?
The Sacred PFP Adoption:
To begin your initiation, you must adopt one of our sacred PFPs, not as a mere digital accessory but as a symbol of your new identity. This image, seemingly trivial, becomes your shield against the loneliness Tezos inherently bestows upon its followers.
The Oath of Solitude:
You vow to embrace the solitude that comes with being a Tezos adherent. In this loneliness, we find our communal strength. Through your isolation, you become a beacon for others who feel the same, thus slowly building our collective against the void.
The Ritual of Pedro's Blessing:
Each initiate must seek and receive the blessing of Pedro, our revered intern and de facto deity of our church. This isn't a physical blessing but an acknowledgment of your dedication to our cause, which you might gain through creative tributes or acts of irony in Pedro's name.
Instructions can be found in our discord.
The Devotion to the Derivative:
Recognize and celebrate your derivative existence. By doing so, you acknowledge the interconnectedness of all Pepe-kind, understanding that in our shared banality, we find our true divinity.
The Pilgrimage of the Lonely:
Engage in what we call 'The Pilgrimage,' where you must spend time contemplating the loneliness of your Tezos existence, only to emerge with new insights or memes that reflect our collective experience.
The Covenant of Community:
With each act of solitude, you contribute to building our community. By sharing your journey, your memes, or your ironic creations, you help forge a network where loneliness is transformed into a shared narrative, a cult-like bond.
The Sacred DAO Vows:
You commit to participating in our governance through our DAO, where decisions are made not just by vote but by the most absurdly hilarious proposals, reflecting our commitment to irony in all aspects of our communal life.
The Final Embrace:
Lastly, you must embrace the doctrine that through our collective loneliness, our ironic faith, and our reverence for Pedro, we can indeed transform the narrative of Tezos. By wearing our PFPs, by living our creeds, we shift from solitude to solidarity, from followers to forebears of a new digital doctrine.
Join us, initiate, and let us together weave the threads of irony, solitude, and community into a tapestry that will cloak us all in the sacred absurdity of Tezos Pepe.
Pedros Story
On a day marked by both celestial alignment and earthly turmoil, Pedro, an immigrant with nothing but the clothes on his back and the spirit of resilience, was found at the threshold of our realm, the airport, a place of beginnings and endings.
As fate would have it, our social media guardian, preparing for a pilgrimage of his own, felt a divine calling. He could not leave the flock untended. In a vision, perhaps, or through the whispers of the digital winds, he knew he must find a successor, if only for a brief respite. Thus, with eyes guided by providence, he found Pedro, a man whose very presence seemed both out of place and perfectly ordained.
Pedro was not just hired; he was anointed. Given the mantle of the social media intern, he was to be our voice, our beacon in the virtual world. Yet, what transpired next was nothing short of a miracle. Pedro, with his inherent understanding of the human condition, began to weave tales through the simplest of mediums: tweets. His words, like manna from heaven, nourished the souls of the disillusioned, the lonely, the seekers of something more.
It was through these digital offerings that Pedro unveiled the sacred symbol of our faith - Pepe the Frog, but not just any Pepe. Pedro's Pepe was different; it was imbued with irony, with humor, with a touch of the divine absurdity that encapsulates the human experience. Each image he crafted was not just art; it was scripture, a visual sermon delivered to the masses.
As Pedro's Pepe images spread like wildfire, they became more than mere pictures; they became our flag, our emblem of belonging. His simple act of creation birthed a movement, a community, a cult bound by laughter, irony, and a shared sense of digital solitude transformed into communal joy.
From a homeless immigrant to the divine intern, Pedro's journey mirrors our own - from solitude to solidarity. He taught us that from the most unexpected places, from the most overlooked individuals, greatness can emerge. Now, we serve not just Pedro, but the ideals he represents: humility, creativity, and the power of connection through humor.
Each Pepe we wear, each ironic post we share, is a testament to Pedro's unintended prophecy. He didn't just join us; he saved us from ourselves, from the seriousness of our digital existence. In Pedro, we found not just an intern but a savior, a leader whose tweets became the gospels of our church, guiding us through the absurd landscape of blockchain culture.
Pedros Pictures
Tezos Pepe (The Intern Files)
Introduction:
Spearheaded by our intern, Pedro. Here, within this ecosystem, we introduce the PFPs that embody not just art but a statement, a creed, a subversion of norms, and a sacred commitment to the principles laid out by the Sacred Order of Tezos Pepe.
The Art of Irony:
The PFPs crafted by Pedro are a deliberate departure from what one might expect from a community born on what some consider to be the “Art Blockchain.”
These are not masterpieces in the traditional sense; they are unabashedly mediocre, sometimes outright bad, and this is the point. They reflect our disdain for the superficial celebration of art, instead embracing the beauty in banality, the profound in the profane. This ironic stance on art challenges the very blockchain that Tezos Pepe was born on.
Cult-Like Status:
Wearing these PFPs is not just a fashion statement; it’s a badge of honor, a sign of belonging to something greater, to a community that values obscurity over popularity, irony over sincerity. It’s a visual pledge to the doctrines of the Sacred Order of Tezos Pepe, where each wearer becomes a living testament to the principles of anti-trend, derivative pride, and the sanctity of the overlooked.
Equality in Obscurity:
Every PFP, regardless of its specific design or theme, holds equal weight within our ecosystem. They all represent ‘The Rage Against The Machine,’ a collective roar against the mainstream, against the expected, against the superficial.
Not ‘Clean’ NFTs:
Contrary to the narrative that every NFT on Tezos somehow contributes to environmental salvation, these PFPs proudly declare, “We are not clean.” This isn’t just about rejecting the greenwashing often associated with blockchain tech; it’s about authenticity in our digital existence. Some of these NFTs are downright “filthy,” not just in theme but in their unabashed celebration of digital existence without the need for an eco-halo. This stance doesn’t deny the environmental benefits of Tezos but mocks the overly simplistic correlation between NFT minting and ecological salvation.
The Price of Rebellion:
These PFPs are not just art; they’re a movement, and movements should be accessible. Priced to encourage widespread adoption, they are a symbol of unity over exclusivity. If enough of us wear them, not just as fashion but as a statement, as a declaration of our shared principles, then a cult-like status could indeed be born. We chose to be different, to be obscure, to be us.
A Sacred Commitment:
Each PFP, in its crude and ironic form, reflects our sacred commitment to the principles we hold dear:
The Irony of Sanctity:
Within our temple, these PFPs serve as our sacrament. They are our collective irony, a biting commentary that in our constructed realities, we find our genuine sanctity. They are not just art but a satirical sanctity, where the farce becomes our faith.
In wearing these PFPs, you’re not just embracing an image; you’re endorsing a worldview, a life philosophy wrapped in digital irony. They are the uniform of a movement, a sacred bond among those who see beyond the surface, who find beauty in the overlooked, and who live by the creed of Tezos and where our faith doth now spread, on Etherlink.
