What do you think the real SCP-001 is?

What do you think the real SCP-001 is? - Lemmy.World

I know this is kind of a pointless question because of how 001 is supposed to work in the lore and on the site. They could all be real, or none of them could be. But I’d like to know if you had to say which one was the “real” one, what would it be? I’ll start. I don’t think the gate guardian is the real one. It’s mentioned in other 001 articles, and while you could apply Occam’s razor I say I’m applying Hickam’s dictum [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hickam's_dictum]. I think there’s a good reason they’re hiding whatever it is 001 is. So what do you all think?

There are more SCP-001 proposals than I knew about. I thought there were 3 or 4… There are dozens and I haven’t checked most of them. I will report back later.

Stop reading them. SCP-001-Xs are generated by people’s knowledge of the one in existence in their natural timeline before being shifted to an alternate reality.

If you learn about the one in your natural timeline you become a inticing target for the SCP to shift you. Most timelines aren’t habitable let alone hospitable to humans.
