Background[]

Imperial Truth is one of most controversial website, communication organizations and structure existing within Galactic Roman Imperium since 1745 as surviving remnants of Second Pan-European War and probably last legacy of fallen Saint Atlantis.

Currently, Imperial Truth is active anti-Imperial, anti-government and opposition information website, providing webhosting, which is in contact with black market and participate on illegal activities, political education, social charity, social medias and conspiracy theories, as well as publishing e-books.

Imperial Truth was banned by imperial decree of Emperor Valerianus IV in 1746 and organizational membership, employees and supporters are subjects of prosecution and arresting since that time.

History[]

Early History (February 1745-October 1780)[]

First attempts to found "Imperial Truth" as tool of anti-Imperial and anti-government resistance were in early February 1745, when most Atlantians were aware of their imminent defeat and remaining inquisitors decided to move in to the underground and form resistance activities against Empire.

Already before Great Nuclear Strike and during most of Second Pan-European War, Inquisition used anti-war propaganda, conspiracy theories and political propaganda against Empire, they spread lies and hoaxes about Roman Empire and tried to damage morale of imperial troops and imperial citizens.

They were not successfull, but with founding of Imperial Truth, they developed more sophisticated methods and instead of using open lies, they misused half-truths, exaggerations, social communication, well organized conspirational structures, autonomous cells and social support for their membership.

Crucial, for survival, was Last Imperial Civil War, which effectively prevented Imperial Military Intelligence, security organizations and imperial forces from elimination "Imperial Truth". During first four years, organization builded infrastructure, smuggled finances for their existence, contacted remaining inquisitors and their families and most dissatisfied members of Citizen Party.

However, until 1780, when Imperial Truth was joined by Johann Adam Weishaupt, son of one of arrested and tortured Atlantis inquisitor, Imperial Truth activities were low-profile and limited to most anti-Imperial territories.

Peak (1780-1852)[]

J. A. Weishaupt joined Imperial Truth in 1780. He was social scientists, graduated on Constantinople University in 1777, but also computer technician and political advisor at Imperial Ministry of Science, where he had access to modern information technologies, communication tools and resources.

In 1780, Weishaupt founded his own Imperial Truth cell in Constantinople, first Truth cell in capital city ever and he was admired by anti-Imperial conspirators for his courage and abilities, talent, administration capabilities and expertise. Until 1789, when Weishaupt activities were found out by imperial police, Weishaupt embezzle more than 1 million Hp ($50 million) for funding IT and recruited about 500 supports over Constantinople, most of them very loyal and able. Weishaupt had good sense on people and was able to recognize people intentions and for many years, he prevented many infiltrations.

Weishaupt used radiobroadcasting and holonet to spreading misinformations in Constantinople and smearing many talented imperial politicians. His greatest success, probably securing his promotion to Imperial Truth de facto leader, was political campaign against Constantinople Mayor Marcianos Crassos (1787-1790). Crassos was widely unpopular politician appointed by direct imperial order, who led drastic austerity policy and was successfull in Constantinople reconstruction projects, include city decontamination. Despite that, Weishaupt misused old corruption false accusations against Crassos and Crassos own arrogant remarks toward low-income citizens (however, some of them were made up by Weishaupt himself).

Imperial Truth affilated organizations initiated petition for recalling Crassos and they were able to collect nearly 150,000 signs against Crassos, who was recalled by imperial government. This improved reputation and respect of Imperial Truth among ordinary citizens.

Still, imperial policy toward Imperial Truth was clear. Anyone associated with Imperial Truth was condemned to death. This policy created number of martyrs, include Weishaupt himself, who was arrested by Imperial Security Service in 1817, tortured and publicly executed.

Weishaupt successors were much less capable and effective, but Weishaupt was able to establishe effective organization with many successfull autonomous cells all over the Empire, especially in poorest regions of Empire, where their websites and radiobroadcasting was used not only for political propaganda and anti-government activities, but also to provide educational support for local citizens, especially in South Eastern Asia and Central Africa.

Important momentum in history of Imperial Truth was rule of Emperor Constantine XIII and his terrible mistakes about LC Fuel and oil industry. These mistakes were misused by Imperial Truth, who spread hoaxes about "ban of cars" (Free Samizdat, no. 789, December 1849), "new taxes for oil industry" (Free Samizdat, no. 790, January 1850) or "ban of oil power plants" (Free Samizdat, no. 794, May 1850). Many people put faith in this and sold their cars and many companies bankrupted (however, extent of Imperial Truth influence is disputed by political experts).

Oil Industry Collapse of 1850 was however also terrible mistake of Imperial Truth. After spreading lies about oil industry, Imperial Truth and their medias (newspapper Free Samizdat and internet streamers Alykot Group) focused on attacks against LC fuel industry, producers and researchers, which provoked surprisingly effective response from Northern Star Company (largest LC fuel producer). NSC hired hitman commando and with their connections, they found out and killed 24 of 27 Free Samizdat editors and 16 of 20 streamers. Imperial Security Service was impressed by this and later recruited that commando, while Imperial Truth lost many of their most experienced members of staff, operatives and editors, which caused nearly three decades long stagnation era.

Stagnation (1852-1880)[]

Since 1852 to 1880, activities of Imperial Truth were limited on expansion of their infrastructure, hiding from imperial agents, some propaganda activities and founding false anti-government campaigns.

In 1879, young and ambitious anti-government activist, student of law at Moscow Imperial Judicial University, conspiracy theorist and politician Pavel Krushevan joined Imperial Truth and execute coup against weakened leadership, reorganized Imperial Truth and focused Imperial Truth against war efforts, as forthcoming Galactic War was already known to imperial population.

Resurgence (1880-1900)[]

In January 20, 1880, Pavel Krushevan published pamphlet "Alien Invasion in Imperial Palace". Krushevan made claim about extraterrestrial infiltration of Imperial Court and Imperial Dynasty. Krushevan claimed that imperial family was replaced by alien agents and misused leaked informations about contact between alien AI and imperial family since Theodora II era.

"They are serving alien interests. They want war as it will be shortest and easiest way for aliens to occupy our Sacred Lands. Our soldiers will be slaughtered, our students send die to frontlines, our workers torment to death by work in war factories, our women will lost their rights and will be commanded to bear as much child as they can for imperial military, instead of enjoying their freedom and rights... then we will be resources and agricultural colony of aliens!"

After September 9, 1880, when Imperial-Union Galactic War has started, technological, financial and organizational resources of Imperial Truth expanded exponentially. In few days, number of minor donors for Imperial Truth expanded hundred times and million citizens used Darkweb connections for cryptocurrency donations to Imperial Truth, which they venerate as "real opposition" and "peacemakers".

Streamers and publishers expanded to colonies, infiltrated military, spread anti-military propaganda among low rank troops, directly by documents and texts and indirectly, through relatives, friends and families of soldiers, who were persuaded by Imperial Truth conspiracy theorists and propagandists.

Until Battle for Earth and decisive imperial military victory at battle, everything went according Imperial Truth opinions and predictions, to such extent that even some members of Imperial Truth worried about fall of Earth and demanded changing course in favour of war efforts, but most of these dissents were "revealed as imperialist infiltrators and enemies of free people!" and murdered by Krushevan.

Shortly after Battle for Earth started forming catastrophe of "Great Scandal".

When Empire won Battle for Earth, Imperial Truth conspirators changed their lies and claimed that Empire will destroy whole galaxy. "Their (Empire) victory is camouflage for their real plan! Total and mutual destruction of Roman Empire and Galactic Union in favour of Iluminates," wrote Pavel Krushevan in 1894. "Stop war! Prevent bloodshed! Save life in the galaxy from warmonger aliens in Constantinople!"

While after Battle for Earth Imperial Truth lost about fifth of donors and third of viewers, in next years they restored their popularity and received much more funding with using bot-nets and connections through whole society and mass-medias.

Closure - "Great Scandal" (1900)[]

Imperial Security Service for whole war pursued and hunted Imperial Truth conspirators, publishers and editors and successfully captured many of them, but most of them were low ranks. In 1892, Counter-Intelligence Section XIV of Military Directorate of Imperial Security Service take notice about large number of unidentified donors, who funded Imperial Truth with Nassya (Galactic Union cryptocurrency, officially banned by Galactic Union, semi-officially used by Union intelligence services). Also Imperial Truth experienced acquisition of large number most modern technologies for spreading their propaganda and their activities, beyond Roman Empire technological level.

In 1896, External Operations Section XXVII of Administrative Directorate captured high ranked Union intelligence officers and operative agents in border regions. Few of these officers were connected to work of "Union Analysis Section", special department of Union intelligence participated on asymetric warfare against Empire, forming anti-Imperial espionage and terrorist network within Empire.

In 1898, analysts of Section XIV and Section XXVII presented their joint theory about secret cooperation between Union Analysis Section and Imperial Truth and on September 1899, Imperial Security Service recruited disillusioned high-ranking members of Imperial Truth, who were outraged by collaboration of Imperial Truth leaders with Galactic Union intelligence.

On February 4, 1900, former Free Samizdat top editor Fyodor Vinberg, streamer teams executive staff chief Miguel de Rivera and member of "inner council" Nobutaka Shióden, after guarantee of amnesty and protection, publicly presented evidence, include secret letters, Darkweb messages and copies of internal financial reports to prove collaboration of Imperial Truth with Galactic Union.

"We are geniune patriots, geniune protectors of Human interests and Human realm. We can´t anymore cooperate with alien collaborants," claimed Vinberg.

After revelation, number of Imperial Truth small donors shrink by 95%, subscribe membership by 95-99% and funding by third, which revealed that about two-thirds of Imperial Truth finances came from Union sources. Pavel Krushevan commit suicide and most members, employees and leaders of Imperial Truth, in exchange for amnesty, left Imperial Truth and reported themselfs to imperial officials. After interrogations, where they revealed all structures and organization, methods and functions of Imperial Truth, most of them were released on freedom.

Key persons[]

Alex E. Jones (February 11, 1974) is current CEO, radio host and "investigative" journalist leading Imperial Truth since 1999. Jones was arrested at age of 16, when he protested against rule of Emperor Michael VIII and was sent in to the prison camp for 6 years. According his own biography, disputed by imperial authorities (but confirmed by various witnesses), he was brutally tortured by prison officers to such extent that he was for few months paralyzed. On other hand, prison records describe Alex Jones as "radical", "violent agitator" and claiming he was frequently assaulted moderate prisoners.

Alex Jones for first time attract attention of Imperial Truth, when he disputed government investigation of Nalgesson Bombing (terrorist attack of unionist loyalists on April 19, 1995, at northern districts of Bologne, where died 1,680 civilians and 6,800 were wounded). Alex Jones published 22-pages long document disputing government investigations, conclusions, evidences and witnesses. Alex Jones claimed that terrorist attack was made by agents of Imperial Security Service to achieve support for increasing military budget and actions against Union Remnants (2017 Emperor Inquiry confirmed original conclusions of investigation, but revealed Imperial Security Service awareness of terrorist threat and purposeful avoiding of security counter-measurers, for which were 17 ISS officers arrested and sent in to the prison).

In 1996, Alex Jones was invited in to the Imperial Truth and in 1999, because of his radical stances, abilities and charisma, he was appointed to position of Imperial Truth CEO after which he moved in to the underground.

Anti-Imperial propaganda[]

Conspiracy theories[]

Nalgesson Conspiracy

  • Conspiracy theory about direct participation of Imperial Security Service in Nalgesson Bombing. Alex Jones claimed that "High Command of Imperial Safety Services (sic!) organized this brutal massacre of our beloved citizens," however, he was not able to reveal identity of organizers, he spoke about "High Command" which is non-existing institution within Imperial Security Services and for some reason, he spoke about Imperial "Safety" Services.

Nuclearails

  • Or "NuclearTrails" is conspiracy theory about poisoning atmosphere of planets by radioactive toxic materials to increase occurrence of cancer for profits of imperial pharmaceutical industry.

Human genocide theory

  • Supremacist speciesist theory claiming that aliens will prevail and annihilate human race. Theory was supported by Imperial Truth only for short period, as Imperial Truth started to focus also on non-Humans, but radical supporters of Imperial Truth continued spreading this conspiracy in late years.
  • Theory is popular, especially after last elections, when voting rights were expanded. Most concerns were about non-Human participation on Imperial Military, which dimnished after large surges of Genome Warriors cloning in 1937-1941 and 1999-2007, during which number of Genome Warriors, loyal only to Empire and Earth, increased 95 times and reached about 1/3 of all armed forces rank-and-file troops.

Dark Age conspiracy

  • To this date, Imperial Truth announced to spread unknown conspiracy related to Dark Age (1346-1356/1348-1358). Committee of Truth leading Imperial Truth want to publish new book, called "Dark Age: Truth behind the Darkness". Content is still unknown, but according internal sources in the Imperial Government, Imperial Security Service and its obscure Section XXV were mobilized and assigned to find anyone, who is related with publishing this book. Committee of Truth announced publication date on June 20, 2020.
    • On June 20, 2020, book "Dark Age: Truth behind the Darkness", was officially published on websites and in the some book stores, with some extracts in the various e-magazines published through Empire. Most of book is dismissed as "absurd fantasy" by many historians, commenters and politicians, who however, remained in anonymous, because of prosecution for possession of book. "All those stories, all those ideas, all those claims, lack any basic scientific proves. I did not bought book, I received it from radical opposition activist, who I already reported to the Imperial Security Service, because I am patriot of the Galactic Roman Imperium, but I read that book. Except chapter 16, it is not book, but mixture of conspiracies and hoaxes. On the other hand, chapter 16 look as the only scientific and historically reliable part of book. According my own opinion, writers probably even followed scientific-historical critical method in writting this part and the fact that Emperor Constantine XV announced intention to comment chapter 16 only solidify reliability of chapter. If chapter 16 is truth, than it will mean political catastrophe for Angelos-Premysloides dynasty. If they are Angelos-Premysloides!!!"
