Hello Internet - and welcome back to the most inquisitive channel on YouTube - Life's
Biggest Questions - the place where we collectively scratch our heads and wonder, is there anyone
running this thing?
As always - I'll be your disembodied floating voice, Jack Finch - as we boldly ask the question,
What is The SCP Foundation Hiding From Us?
Now - I know we've casually joked about the existence of the SCP Foundation - as if
such a thing could ever go unnoticed this whole time without alerting a keen eyed journalist
or a nothing to lose whistleblower, but, in all seriousness - let me tell you - Project:
Anubis is alive and well and in need of [DATA REDACTED] [DATA REDACTED] [DATA REDACTED]
*PROJECT: ANUBIS 01001100 01101001 01100111 01101000 01110100 00100000 01110100 01101000

Phew - sorry there folks, I lost myself for a minute.
Anyway - before we begin, if you're a fan of this SCP based video, go ahead and give
us a thumbs up - or a respective thumbs down - and share this video with a friend, enemy,
civil servant or your nearest state senator.
Because, the question is an important one - and in essence, the short answer is: a lot
of things.
The Foundation's very nature is to keep things secret, as we've covered before,
and contain those things in a special set of procedures.
Simple.
At its very core, the foundation seeks to withhold the truth, throw it in a sack and
bury it a thousand feet below the Earth in a concrete filled tube.
It's inner machinations rely on everything /but/ the truth to keep it ticking.
Sound selfish?
Well - no.
There's nothing selfish about preventing the universal manifestation of cosmic horror
from strangling all life as we know it with it's fleshy tentacles.
In fact, it's brave.
It's a role that always needed to be filled, and is absolutely necessary.
But there's one particular group that couldn't disagree more.
The Chaos Insurgency.
In 1924, a covert special task force was formed - known only to the O5 Council - which they
fittingly nicknamed, the Insurgency.
It was comprised mainly of members of an unequivocally loyal military task force - known as the Red
Right Hand.
It's role was to complete missions outside the remit of the Foundation itself, which
involved ethically questionable methods and politically unsavory results - which the Foundation
needed to keep clear of.
In short - The Chaos Insurgency was a rogue squad that got the job done when no one else
would do it.
However - it became a self fulfilling prophecy in 1948, when during a seemingly routine staged
operation - the Chaos Insurgency /actually/ went rogue and seized assets and entities
from a multitude of Foundation sites, disappearing into obscurity.
The question is why though?
And why do we know incredibly little about them?
Well - while the motives behind the Insurgency's betrayal remain relatively unknown - their
general code is to fully embrace the idea of transhumanism, ignoring ethical limitations
in experimentation - taking their practices to the ultimate extreme, and making them unpalatable
for even the black-and-gray Foundation to stomach.
In essence, the Chaos Insurgency believes that it's carrying out a great rebellion
against the Foundation's status quo - believing that humanity should embrace the chaos of
the void, and use the power held within it's anomalies to augment our very existence.
But - in all seriousness - know what knows what the Chaos Insurgency actually wants.
Maybe it's all a box within a box, and the O5 Council are orchestrating layers upon layers
of lies, double, triple - and quadruple bluffing even themselves.
They're playing 4d underwater chess, just for the shear fun of it.
Or - maybe they all took an O5 level amnestic and forgot that entire point of the Chaos
Insurgency.
They're just sat there, twiddling their thumbs - waiting for the whole thing to blow
over.
Talking of amnestics, though - we're led into our main point - the point that origin
doesn't even matter for the SCP Foundation.
Where did it all begin?
When did the first record pass across the first desk?
It can be a thousand tales, or one - they all mean the same thing.
You'd think that the easiest starting point would be SCP-001, right?
Work chronologically and all that.
But - no - as most things are with the SCP Foundation, it's not as easy as that.
To avoid seamlessly answering the question of where the Foundation originates, the first
note in their catalogue - several SCP-001 files have been created to act as decoys alongside
the true file or files.
There are exactly 27 separate files under SCP-001.
All of them could be true, all of them but one could be false.
There's no way to know, and that's exactly as the Foundation likes it.
Some people believe it to be the Wrong Proposal - a document that states the Foundation was
formed after the Great Occult War - which the cause and origin of is unknown, but a
number of groups banded together to create the Foundation as a preventative measure.
Or - some believe it to be a decoy.
Other's believe that CODE NAME: Bright is the truth.
AKA - the Factory, where in the fallout of the American Civil War - a great, hulking
factory was built that harboured the horrors of a man, James Anderson - known as the Anderson
Factory, built in 1835.
A surviving member of the O5 reportedly was a liberator of the horrors inside, and used
the site as a base of operations to secure, contain and protect their way across the planet.
Oh - also, the Factory is sentient and requires habitual human sacrifice.
Or - the Scranton Proposal - the idea that the Foundation itself is SCP-001 - it's
history so full of paradoxes, time travel and anti-memetics that no one really knows
where it's existence came from.
Or it's SCP-001-J - a big red, shiny button - so powerful, that it will obliterate reality
itself if pushed.
Well - the point is, we'll probably never find out.
And - in fact, now's about time that your Class-A Aerosol Amnestic should be administered.
Thanks for watching, and remember - the truth is irrelevant.
Well, there we are guys - the fantastically vague answer to What Is The SCP Foundation
Hiding From Us?
What do you think?
What do you think the true nature of the Foundation is?
Has it always existed, in some form or another?
