How to keep a secret
To keep a grand secret, you must build an epistemic firewall that is not just informational, but ontological. It aims to suppress not just knowledge, but the framework through which such knowledge could be interpreted, discussed, or even believed. This isn’t about secrecy, it’s about cognitive weaponization. The secret isn’t contained by denying evidence, but by reframing language, redefining credibility, and contaminating epistemology itself. Over time, the cover-up matures into a self-replicating stable belief-control ecosystem. A strange attractor in the collective belief space. That’s how you preserve a secret in complex social environments: not by hiding it, but by making belief in it structurally impossible.
