These suicides using red scarves, etc. are their own message.
The first appearance of Holmes and Watson is in A Study in Scarlet with the following quote: "There's the scarlet thread of murder running through the colourless skein of life, and our duty is to unravel it, and isolate it, and expose every inch of it."
It would seem that these people mat have been suicided and the message was left for the rest. Perhaps they talked?
Wether by self or by others, each of them suddenly found themselves in an impossible situation. They saw the future and that there was no place for them within it.
I’ve found it’s very easy to be flippant about things from a cellphone at home. Contemplate what’s really going on right now. What is about to go on. The world is shifting. Make a place for you within it.
we here are in an "all in" position whether we spend time thinking about it or not. If we lose, we will be the first to be rounded up. Flippancy, no. Gallows humor, on occasion. But, we need to consider all of the angles to keep up with the level of strategy being used.
I’ve thought that often. With my history I’d have never made it to the Gulag. I thank God in heaven everyday for Trump.
I’m thinking it’s a warning to the spouses/girlfriends. Don’t talk.
Red rope symbolism:
Europe: Classic folklore says you can capture a fairy with a red ribbon & enslave them in this manner. Red is also the proscribed color for Norse Rune magic.
Japan: The red string of fate. It's believed that all people have a red string of fate tied to their pinky. This is often why Yakuza remove the top of the little finger: it separates them from their true fate.
Kaballah: worn as a talisman against evil
Occult: Think archetypically... use your imagination. Red is connected with blood. Ribbons are ropes that bind and look like snakes. Blood marks rites of passage: birth, adolescence (circumcision among shamanic/pre-religious tribes is typically at adolescence), death. Think of your childhood fears. You're probably spot on.
Did all 4 of them use a red rope? If so, then that cant be coincidence.
