Radix Fidem

It reads like very poorly written dystopian sci-fi. I was alerted to a YouTube channel that's good for a few laughs: Guardians of the Looking Glass.

It goes like this: The claim is that a group discovered some secret artifact they call the "Looking Glass" that enables them to see possible future timelines. They've posted three videos so far claiming to warn about pivotal events that must be stopped or humanity is doomed. The events they claim to foresee in these timelines are fairly detailed. Some are almost plausible. At any rate, their final endpoint is some paradisical evolution of mankind to living centuries in peace. It's full of nonsense jargon about changes in the human soul, etc.

At any rate, the first pivotal event is supposed to be 18 April, 9 days from when I post this. They claim there will be some kind of false flag nasty in Times Square that will be blamed on Russia. Things run through some sequence ending with nuclear war, and Russia and China win. I'm not recommending this crap, but if you want a good laugh, and have some time to waste, go check out their channel. The videos are slow-scrolling text only.

And it sounds a lot like the Q-anon silliness, seeking to get everyone on board by silencing any independent thought about such things. It also reminds me of Scientology with wild claims about the source of their story. For example, the Looking Glass was left by the Sumerians, but didn't originate with them.

That's a great find, Ed. Would love to see the Looking Glass artifact itself. Highly convenient that it's classified and secured away. At least there's a good reason not to have it shown, compared to the Emerald Tablets. Whatever happened to those?

Listening to the first video now. I love how they said sharing/spreading the videos will lead to one of the favorable predicted outcomes.

Can't wait for April 18th!

Well, I guess there wasn't any nasty false flag about Russia in Times Square. It's been almost a week and I've not heard of anything. Heh.

Their latest video said that disaster was "avoided"! Huzzah!

Yeah, it's even worse than the Q-anon stuff. BTW, they obviously don't know much about how encryption works in computers and networking.

I don't know much about how encryption works, either, so I wouldn't know how much bull they were trying to pull.

That's what they are counting on. They don't allow comments from those who know. What they are suggesting is that every computer out there has some kind of snoopware built into the hardware that captures the message prior to encryption. What that in itself is possible, it's highly unlikely, since there are quite a few nerds testing hardware for this very thing. It's how the NSA was caught. The NSA had been intercepting shipments and inserting hardware after the manufacturer sent out the order. But they don't have the facilities to do that for more than a small handful of what is shipped every day.

Where the video really gets it wrong is suggesting that encryption always takes place as the stuff is sent. Most encryption software performs the encryption on the hard drive before the data is passed to the networking chips. The only way to intercept is via snoopware prior to the encryption, not during the process of transmission.
