I missed this, Blackwood the British lord who is a sea slug was pulled from SCP?
Edit: No. Firstly, I'm retarded and can't read. Secondly, when Djoric left a few months ago, he/she/they/whatever released large chunks of 1867 and 2085 under CC0, but the actual stories are still covered by whatever the standard license SCP uses is.

This showed up on my friend's feed. I'm sure it's nothing new but it's been years since I even thought about SCP that it caught me off guard

My only exposure to SCP was a video that Fredrik Knudsen made back in 2016. I never was invested into the community, but I really thought the idea was interesting and the efforts it made to have a collective of authors and maintain realism made it way better than what most CreepyPastas were doing. I've known for a while since then that there's a ton of weird and low effort entries on SCP, but it's still sad to see how far they've fallen within the past 10 years.

We never really reached the bottom of how low SCP has fallen, it just sinks deeper.
 
The artist behind the original image, being a Japanigger, cannot conceive of art made through reuse or recontextualization since copyright is Very Serious Business in the east
Yeah the country that has a gigantic convention every year just for artists that make fan comics of existing intellectual properties can't into recontextualised art.
 
I'm honestly surprised that there hasn't been a story made yet about how the evil flesh monster cult members are just le understood and innocent minorityfolx and uhm actually it's the christfascists/normal society who are the REAL monsters.
This happened with SCP-6140, where SCP-140 is revised as a evul rayciss white man's lies and the Daevites were actually wholesome chungus dark magic girl bosses.

Funnily enough they got roasted by an asian for that:

Also since the article tells you that the wiki's Stephen King Crimson King knockoff is racist fanfiction I really have to say that I wish the wiki wouldn't plaster this nigga everywhere, especially since basically all ideas about him suck.

Also yes, that includes Tufto's proposal for the Scarlet King, that, while technically well written, makes him a projection of human culture because Tufto thinks that cosmic horrors stories also should tell something about the human experience, so in the end he probably just doesn't knows what the term means: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lovecraftian_horror

I thought Djoric's take where the King is vague ancient space Ganondorf from hell that serves as the headhoncho of a bunch of gods that are connected with different parts of SCP's mythology was fine, but even this guy started to shoot himself in the foot with bad ideas before he left.

(Also why the fuck are powerscalers so obsessed with a character whose powerset is basically just "vague dangerous evil god"?)
 
Because Goku is a powerscaler's biggest opp and they're obsessed with seeing if someone is stronger than him.
I wish I would live in a world where more people would realize that Goku can't defeat the Scarlet King and the Scarlet King can't defeat Goku and Batman also can't solo them with prep time because they aren't fucking real and in fictional stories the author decides who wins.

But instead people spend their time writing absurd articles on wikis like this: https://omniversal-battlefield.fandom.com/wiki/The_Scarlet_King_(Djoricverse)
 
I always thought the Scarlet King was more interesting as a god of Man’s creation rather than a primordial Eldritch entity. God knows the Foundation has enough of those. I kind of like the idea of him being an ancient god of masculinity, blood, and conquest born from the dawn of humanity, that was unable to adapt to the rise of civilizations and got so angry about it that it’s folded the idea of the conflict between the primitive and the modern into one of its aspects.

Funnily enough I think that Tufto's proposal is fine in a vacuum, but I thought that the entire Neil Gaiman thing where gods are created by man became kinda overused when the article came out in 2018, maybe because the Antimemetics Division from a few years earlier popularized the concept.
And I mean the King exists on the wiki since 2008 and was obviously meant as SCP's stand in for Satan, so when Tufto's proposal came out I thought the concept was already overdone, especially since online horror spaces have the habit of overexplaining stuff.

I mean in the end of the day the concept goes back to the King in Yellow (and well the Hanged King does too but with less extra steps) which also tied into human psychology and culture like arts, but I thought it worked better because you still have no idea what the hell the King in Yellow even is.

Idk, I don't think tying a cosmic horror story to human culture is automatically a bad idea, but Tufto's was just weirdly unspectacular for being an article about a monster that is obviously meant to be the devil. I mean hell your comment makes the idea sound cooler than the article does.

Antimemetics Division is the polar opposite of that idea though, 3125/Cosmic Starfish's whole thing is that it's so alien and hostile to human cognition that merely knowing about it obliterates you and everyone close to you from reality. It’s like the Lovecraftian forbidden knowledge trope taken to its logical extreme.

Personally I think the Scarlet King is distinct enough from just being off-brand Satan. To me, his defining feature are his brides/children, a concept introduced in the foundational SK SCP, 231-7. That's always took precedence for me over any incidental similarities to the devil or Satan.

I meant more that godlike beings are dependend on human psychology to function, like the Starfish is an idea so you have to know about him so that he can do anything, the Scarlet King needing a cultural shift to exist and so on.
