Crouching Emoji, Hidden Demon

Written by John Carroll

Many people around the world seem to finally be waking up to the conspiracies that have been discussed on Quite Frankly for years now. In defense of their having just now arrived to the party, these conspiracies often go back decades or longer, are multi-layered and require certain prerequisite knowledge to fully grasp. In contrast, the Professor Bulwer Smythe channel on YouTube has produced something rather remarkable. Their video, The Demonic Truth Behind Emojis, exposes the players and very disturbing history behind the now ubiquitous emojis. It is extremely clean-cut, and to the point. In less than ten minutes, they seem to have an open and shut case. The only real questions we’re left with are about the implications of this conspiracy being true.

According to the video, “The organization behind the proliferation of emojis is called Unicode. This organization approves successive waves of emojis to be released to various platforms… Unicode is a consortium of firms that have stakes in the technology industry. There are various tiers of membership, but the top rank is reserved for those major firms with a keen interest in controlling emoji content.” Listed among giant technology companies that are widely recognized is an organization that is not – the Sultanate of Oman’s Ministry of Endowments and Religious Affairs.

The video then alleges that the leadership of Oman’s interest in emojis can be traced back thousands of years, to a deal between King Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. The details of their meeting were chronicled in 1 Kings, Chapter 10, in the Old Testament:

“This riddling test is very peculiar. The Queen has some secret knowledge which she wants to determine if King Solomon has as well. And the result sounds as though he proves to have even greater knowledge than she does. But knowledge… concerning what?”

“There is a grimoire (a book of spells) that was published around 1650 entitled The Lesser Key of Solomon. The book claims to have been written by King Solomon himself, and the first section, the Ars Goetia, contains instructions for summoning seventy-two demons. These include magical seals necessary for uttering the demon’s name, and bringing it to the sorcerer’s presence. The physical crafting of these seals is said to be one of the highest magical arts.”

“After the riddling contest,” the video continues, “she pays King Solomon quite a hefty sum, and what he gives her in return… is shrouded in mystery.”

“Yes, that’s right. Six hundred and sixty-six. What is the author trying to tell us here? Is it possible that what King Solomon traded to the Queen of Sheba for 666 talents of gold were a full set of original demonic seals?”

With that question in mind, the video fast forwards to 1955, when American archeologist Wendell Phillips set out on an expedition to the Queen of Sheba’s palace in Oman. The expedition was a huge success, as “Phillips became the second Westerner ever to become a tribal sheik. Could it be that Phillips uncovered the original seals given to the Queen of Sheba? This would certainly explain what followed after.”

“Just as we have no clear record in our sources of what Solomon gave to the Queen of Sheba, so we do not know what Phillips gave to the Sultan of Oman, but we do know how Phillips was compensated. According to his New York Times obituary, soon after Phillips’ unearthing of the Queen of Sheba’s palace, he was granted enormous concessions by the Omani government, enough to make him the world’s largest individual holder of oil concessions at the time.”

“So, what does all this have to do with emojis?”

Consider this – Unicode 8 was released the same year the Omani government joined the Unicode consortium (2015). Unicode 8 was also “known as the ‘occult edition’ of Unicode,” in which “there are seventy-two face core emojis… the same number of demonic powers in the Ars Goetia:

Based on the above evidence, it appears the “Omani government’s Religious Affairs division created correspondences between, on the one hand, each of the Goetic seals in their possession from Phillips, and on the other hand, the seventy-two emojis which had been developed partially under their own influence.”

“By comparing the Goetic seals to the emojis, one can see where the Omani government had their influence, and what the correspondences actually are. Dizzy face is Marbus. Face with look of triumph is Baal. Nerd face is Malphas, and so on, and so forth. (As a side note, it’s pointed out that the actual emojis Unicode publishes are black and white, which look much more like the sigils than the fully colorized emojis.)

“This sequence of 72 emojis is followed by a code signifying the end of a magical sequence: three symbols of death, two symbols of alienation and one symbol of a soulless automaton. The meaning of this 3, 2, 1 sequence is that the occult communication ends there. This is reinforced in two ways. First, the countdown of 3, 2, 1 is a sequence indicating completion and winding down. Second is the sequence of death, alienation, automatation [sic]. This is literally an illustration of a spirit leaving a body, but here represents the spiritual content leaving the corpus of the text.”

“What is most unnerving here is the degree to which all of this was done in plain sight,” the video concludes, and asks, “what have they been doing with this power, and how has it been affecting us?”

We at Quite Frankly tip our hats to Professor Bulwer Smythe on a job well done, and have speculated about those questions before. There have been measurable detriments to the human spirit brought about by technology, and powerful groups who understand how this works are often bound by occult superstitions, and a belief in cosmic karma. Perhaps the real revolutionary endeavor we should be pursuing is to make handwritten letters popular again, instead of willingly feeding the beast.
