 You know, I made a video, um, I think it was a couple of years ago about how the SAV foundation isn't real. Going over the basics of why that's a silly idea. And at the time it was a reply to comments that were, you know, stupid comments like, uh, you think you're a real doctor at the foundation, but you're not. Which was, it's like a compounding collection of stupids all together. What do you call a group of stupids? An idiot? Yeah, we'll go with that. Anyway, point is I did that video knowing, even I remember doing it and I actually looked it up not too long ago and it actually says in the description, until I have to make another video, we're there now. So last two weeks ago I did the infographics show was wrong and then uh, infographics like a couple of days later, maybe even before I got the video out had already done another video, which weirdly enough wasn't up to a certain point. There were things in it that got wrong, but it was nothing in it that was particularly like super wrong until the ending where it tried to hint that the SAV foundation might really be real, which is a fun thing to do, but it feels so irresponsible. And if they want to have fun with it I'm not going to bother with that. Like there's no second year, well until they make, and if they make something else that's really far off base then maybe we will do it, but there's no second version yet of the you're wrong about the infographics show, but there is going to be a discussion of why this whole the SAV foundation is real thing is stupid. Let's just get that out of the way right now. First of all, just first of all, everything you know about the SAV foundation comes from the SCP wiki. The SCP wiki, if I'm trying, okay conspiratorial fiction or just general conspiracy theories have this idea in them that the person who has discovered the thing is particularly clever. Like they've done a lot of work or they they've got these they've got all they've they've done the research and they figured it out that this doesn't make sense and this doesn't make sense and so if we uh we throw those things together we can figure something out, but they're never right obviously. Well that's not true, but then you can be a crazy conspiracy theorist and be right about the thing that you have a conspiracy theory about by the way, because you had no proof that the thing was correct and it just happened to be correct. Anyway, in order for the SAV foundation to be real you would have to accept that the SAV foundation thought the best idea for keeping itself secret was to release a public database on wikidot making it seem like it's fiction and that not only on wikidot is a bunch of you know is the listing of the SCPs which would make sense and they're formatted in such a way as to be realistic but also a bunch of flash fiction and short stories and a couple of novels worth of other fiction that that an international almost unlimited resources organization probably more powerful than most but maybe three governments would think that secrecy is best preserved by creating a collaborative fiction writing website and I'm going to say this again and put emphasis on it again because it's the stupidest part of this on wikidot not any kind of they didn't create their own no they put it on wikidot i mean okay so it's fine that kids of course kids are going to think that it's real it presents itself as real in a certain way of course now the website even has like the social medias at the top left of the screen like any level of investigation beyond surface level would determine very quickly that the wiki is a collaborative writing site and not a real secret organization and if it was a secret organization there wouldn't be youtube videos about it they would get taken down there wouldn't be several very successful and more successful than me even youtube channels devoted to scp content there wouldn't be an infographic video about it two three four i don't know any they've done now market player wouldn't be playing containment breach i mean there wouldn't be games available on steam based around it yeah it's real it's totally real it's fine to think it for a moment it's not fine to continue to think it and i know that most people don't all right let me be totally fair here i don't think most people believe the scp foundation is real right and the ones that do are probably below the age of 13 the kids the super like young kids who don't know any better and that's fine that's fine but if you're a an adult or even a any kind of teenager and you have gotten come to the conclusion that maybe the scp foundation is real you're an idiot all right and before you reach for the subscribe button to unsubscribe for my channel i just want to say wait i don't have anything to say i guess that's that's fine i guess look it's very important that this kind of thing doesn't get spread around to the younger fan base that we don't propagate the idea that it's real there what's the best way to explain this it's a fictional world which is enhanced by the you know realism of it and it's fine to create fiction under the auspices that it is real however it's also doubly important to make sure that people understand afterwards that it isn't because it because people will get caught up in any sort of conspiracy theory that they can get their heads around because it makes them feel special that they know something that nobody else does you know the people that think that the moonlandings were faked because uh look this uh this flag is waving in the wind even though it looks exactly the same in most pictures or this is a this is a this is a sound this is a sound stage in arizona or out in california desert in the mojave or the flat or flat earth or people who are like yeah the earth is flat why is the earth flat because you know this that and the other thing and conspiracy theories look and the people whose minds go in that direction it's a it's a tricky thing because you can start like going down a hill and never stopping with that kind of stuff believe it's real for one moment and suddenly uh you know and especially with a super like uh a cons and an extra governmental organization that's trying to keep it's actively trying to keep itself secret then you're like oh yeah uh dr samarion's youtube channel is just made up specifically for me to try and convince me and people like me that the scp foundation isn't real and then you could present like obvious like it that it's a collaborative writing site on wikidot and people will go oh yeah that's just proof that i'm right that's just broken logic so stopping it before it begins super important now is this a huge problem in the community no i don't really think it is i said this before most people don't think this and most people who do think it are either young and haven't really given it too much thought you know you'll get this from a lot of people i thought the scp foundation was real when i first started which is fine that's fine that's fun have a little bit of enjoyment in the in the wonder or whatever but let it go it's not real it never was real and if the world or anyone that you know tries to convince you else wise just chuckle and move on if you can't if you can correct them correct them because if you can get to that early sometimes you can prevent it from spiraling out of control people get excited about things you know and i don't want to tell people that their fun is wrong if it's fun and that's all it is but you get very serious very quickly the scp foundation isn't real it doesn't matter what the infographics show says at the end of its video it doesn't matter what you read on some scp article somewhere it's just for entertainment it's a collaborative writing website for fiction writers that's it science there's science fiction on there there's horror on there there's contemporary fantasy and that's about it you can find all sorts of fiction on the scp wiki it's lots of fun for everybody but no matter what it's not real if you give it any real thought any like concrete logical reasoning you'll realize that the idea that it could be real is so stupid anyway that's it i guess that was a little bit of a rant but uh i remember watching the i was watching the infographic show and i was like you know what this is the the second video they did or at least the one about the scp foundation in general i was like you know this is this is a lot of stuff in this i wouldn't have put in it the there's a lot of stuff in this that i i think makes this a bad video but it's not particularly wrong they go into a lot of detail and then they got to the end where they're like and maybe it's real and i was like anyway as i said that's it
