The history of science is an unpleasant thing. If you study diligently, you will need to research and compare written sources, archaeological data, and read monographs of predecessors.
But there are people who do not suffer so much. These are also called folk historians. They clearly understand how to distinguish truth from lies. It’s simple: if the information brings positive emotions, then it is true. If not, it is wrong. Therefore, if scientists say unpleasant things, they are lying. But how can we learn the truth?
Here folk linguistics comes to the rescue of folk historians. Language is a large amount of data that every person carries with them at all times. You do not need to register in the Lenin Library archives to work with this information resource. To find out how things really are, you need to decipher the true meaning of words. All it takes is a little willpower. And a bit of apophenia – the ability to see relationships and patterns in completely random data. As a result, the great and beautiful history of our people, slandered by official science, is coming to light.
People’s history sometimes really enjoys its clarity. It’s not for nothing that memes created about Russians and lizards are popular in 2023. It seems incredible that anyone would take this seriously. But there are an alarming number of such people.
Judging by the latest news, the folk history bacillus affects more and more new systems of the social organism. And it’s getting closer to decision-making centers. He even appears on television.
Here is Filya – “Good night, guys!” The same puppy from his schedule. Now he presents the language section in the program “Good Morning, Children” on the “Carousel” channel. In one of the last episodes, the dog said: “Once upon a time there were 49 letters in the Russian language. The list of letters was later called capital letters, not alphabets. But Cyril and Methodius, the creators of the Slavic alphabet, shortened it by five letters.”
An excerpt of the program could not be found on the Carousel website or on the channel’s social networks. It’s probably been deleted. However The Internet remembers.
So, according to Philae, Cyril and Methodius did not invent the Slavic alphabet, they only simplified the existing one. And this is already a heresy not only from the point of view of science, but also from the point of view of the Orthodox Church. Open disparagement of the virtues of saints revered in both Eastern and Western Christian traditions. By the way, is this an insult to the feelings of believers?
As for drop cap, it is a highly contagious virus, like herpes. Easy to take, hard to take off. Its popularity is so high that when searching for “Slavic alphabet” or “Cyrillic” in search engines, pictures with initials He is among the first to leave. Graphic designers often fall into this trap. As a result, images of the first letter appear on television programs, federal media websites, and even monuments.
In fact, this is a fictional alphabet. Each letter in it is an “image” containing a hidden esoteric meaning. So any word can be read as an abbreviation.
A real ecosystem has developed around the pseudo-alphabet: “scientific” articles are written on this topic, expensive courses are held, educational materials for children are produced – cubes, for example. There are special applications and internet services.
Although “letter-by-letter” is positioned as the original alphabet of the Slav-Aryans, it was first found in the works of our contemporary, Alexander Khinevich, the head of the “Old Russian Church of Old Believers-Yinglings”, convicted of extremism. Meanwhile, his works are also considered extremist (They combine esotericism with the significant influence of the teachings of Helena Blavatsky, the ideology of Nazism and radical neo-paganism. – socialbites.ca). Unfortunately, Karusel TV channel viewers are unaware of this. Filya did not warn them.
Externally, it differs from the real Cyrillic alphabet in the initial letter, some letters and their names. But the easiest way to identify it is the symbol æ, a ligature of the Latin alphabet that our “ancient people” never used.
In general, any so-called linguistic obscenities can be easily identified by the supposedly hidden sacred meanings in words or individual letters. If you hear something like this, run immediately.
Linguistics in general is an insidious thing. He’s just pretending to be a humanist. From the outside, the humanities seem like a free field of interpretation where everyone has their own opinion. Sometimes this is true, but when it comes to linguistics this is not true.
We can say that linguistics is a snake that likes to warm up in your chest. The poison doesn’t kill him, but it exposes him. Anyone who tries to take him as an ally but does so disrespectfully turns into naked kings.
Many truly respected people and even dogs fall into this trap, willingly or unwillingly. The public’s favorite artist, Mikhail Zadornov, who turned into a language freak. Anatoly Fomenko is not the last mathematician to invent the crazy “New Chronology” (A pseudoscientific theory that considers the current chronology of historical events incorrect and proposes its own methods of dating history. – socialbites.ca). Here’s Phil…
In general, take care of yourself. Do not touch linguistics with your bare hands, and especially do not try to grab it by the tail, as God grabs his beard. Leave linguistics to the professionals and look elsewhere to justify your ideological position.
Something truly scientific is better.
