A Frog's Manifesto Revisited
“All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others”
In the story “Animal Farm” by George Orwell, the Pigs sold themselves as the benevolent leaders of the farm with the promise that all animals were equal.
However, it turned out, some animals (namely the Pigs) were “more equal” than others.
Now, let us write that statement another way…
“All humans are equal, but some, the “elites”, the “famous”, the “powerful”, the politicians, the “aristocracy”…whatever you want to call them; are more equal than others.
And throughout history those “elites” have not only accepted this view, but have embraced it.
----------------------------------------------------
The system is rigged.
Examples:
They tell you to “be more productive” and then they cut your jobs.
They told you to “wear a mask”, and then partied like it was 2019. Not to be bothered with the same “precautions” they were finger wagging you with daily. All while you serve them faceless and nameless at their parties.
They told you that “WAGMI!” (We Are All Going To Make it), and then made backroom deals, coordinated pump and dumps, and influenced you to buy crap to ensure that you wouldn't actually make it. And now you have a hidden folder full of their "alpha."
They tell you to sacrifice your convenience to “save the planet” while they fly around the world on private jets, eat steaks from those flatulent cows, and emit countless amounts of Co2 from the hot air filled with platitudes and nonsense they spew from their podiums.
They tell you to “buy the dip” while they are selling it to you.
They tell you to pay your “fair share” of taxes, while their buddies pay none.
They tell you that this memecoin is different or that they want you to buy their keys because "the tech".
They told you to shut down your family business to “stop the spread” while the doors on the big corporations stayed open.
They create laws and regulations to “protect the little guy”, but only the “big guys” can afford to comply with them
You see, in the eyes of the Elites, “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others”
Don’t misread what we say. We are not asking for equality of outcome. Nor are we advocating for “handouts” to those among us who expect others to work while they reap the rewards from our toils.
We, the Frogs, are simply expecting the equality of opportunity.
And that opportunity is what we are coming after.
That is what Web3 represents to us.
The decentralization of communication.
The decentralization of information.
The decentralization of money.
The decentralization of influence.
The decentralization of power.
Ultimately, the decentralization of opportunity.

What is The Plague?
The Plague is like a disease.
A disease spreads quickly. A disease does not care about your race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, political affiliation, worldview, or your country of origin.
Neither do we. That is part of the beauty of the blockchain and being an anon. The different categories that we have been put into by those who try and divide us are unknown.
And we don’t care to know them.
The Plague is also like the plague of frogs from the story of Exodus. The frogs were sent to disrupt the Elites of that time and change the status quo.
We will do the same.
But how?
-----------------------------------------------
1⃣ @TheFrogTank (Restarting Q4 2023)
We will be the incubator for frogs who have great Web3 based ideas, but need the resources to act on them.
2⃣ @Making_Coffee_ (Launching shortly)
Making Coffee will show how the blockchain can connect people around the world.
3⃣ @WenSwap_io (Launching Q4 2023)
We will create a system that brings opportunity to our holders and others by tokenizing real world assets (inventory), allowing us to connect people around the world.
4⃣ Plague Brands
Plague Brands will be made up of many parts including:
- @ThePlagueNFT
- Strategic Partnerships with other communities
- New brands we bring to market
5⃣ @ThePlagueNFT
The Exodus, and our plans around it will be introduced slowly and methodically as we roll into Q4 2023 and Q1 2024.
We will be building infrastructure for two things.
1. Recovery of the NFT Market
2. IRL Opportunities
-------------------------------------------------
In summary:
We will use our community and our partners — collectively “The Frogs” — to snatch the opportunity from a centralized few and use that opportunity to create positive outcomes for the many (i.e the Frogs).
--------------------------------------------------
A Note from Pons:
The above has been modified from its original version. We have learned a lot since publishing the first Frog's Manifesto.
In some ways I have given up on the notion that decentralization is a real possibility. In the days that the first manifesto was published, I had fooled myself into believing that many of the people here cared about decentralization.
They do not. I would say a very small minority do.
So as we move forward we will focus less on the decentralization of things, and focus more on what we can do with a decentralized technology.
Primarily, we will focus on bringing transparency to business and using the blockchain to connect people around the world.
And of course, we will continue to focus on our primary mission of building out a global community that shares our vision of using the blockchain as a tool for decentralizing opportunity 🐸
For all @moonbirds, Mythic Eggs, and Diamond Exhibition pass holders not active in the discord, there was an announcement from @kevinrose on a rough timeline for wrapping up the Oddity burn, Mythics roll out, and DE to make way for the upcoming $Talons marketplace.
