Agent Dragar
adds to the speculation on Citizen X.
Most of it makes sense, but he says one thing wildly in opposition to what we know: He notes that it might be tempting to fall into black-and-white statements that don't quite mesh with reality. For example:
"Where EVOKE desires transparency, Citizen X seeks obfuscation."Alchemy says: "We
like our secrets... Secret is how we work." Evoke has its secret handsign, the symbols of Citizen X are (at least sometimes) overtly displayed (see the posters).
Alchemy calls Citizen X "irresponsible", not evil. And we have clear evidence that both Ember and Quinn (both Evoke Agents
par excellence) use Citizen X as a source of information. Ember also seems to be the least secretive: Her students know she's up to
something, and spelling out EVOKE and EMBER in the rooftop gardens is a bit obvious. (I suppose something has to keep the rumors going, Evoke's not much use if no one knows to call.)
Actually, we might reasonably conclude that Citizen X is
more desiring of transparency than Evoke, they leaked government memos, they want information on the Evoke Network (so they can leak that, too?). "We reveal". They expose. (Xpose?) Maybe they take transparency to extremes
as an ideal, maybe not.
Then again, they're also a secret organization. I wonder if they're lead by someone like Alchemy or organized in a more decentralized manner.
And why does Alchemy think they're "irresponsible"? Information can certainly be used irresponsibly, true or false, especially when there's no organizational structure to curtail malicious actors within the organization (much less exclude them). Think
WikiLeaks but also think
The Yes Men... then cross both of those with
Anonymous. See why Alchemy might be concerned?
