Isaac Asimov’s Foundation as Disclosure

With the arrival of Season 3 of Foundation, Isaac Asimov’s legendary science fiction saga continues to unfold on screen. I’ve rewatched the first two seasons and find myself eagerly anticipating each new episode. Yet what stands out to me now, more than ever, is how much of this story feels less like fiction and more like disclosure—a mirror to what is happening on Earth today.

Foundation characters

Foundation tells the tale of a decaying galactic empire ruled by a bloodline of cloned emperors—Brother Day, Brother Dawn, Brother Dusk—clinging to their seat of power as the pillars of civilisation begin to crumble. Enter Hari Seldon, a mathematical prophet who predicts the empire's inevitable fall and creates the Foundation: a secretive scientific enclave on the remote planet of Terminus, tasked with preserving knowledge and guiding a rebirth after the collapse.

At face value, it's classic sci-fi. But look deeper, and the parallels to our current planetary situation are astonishing.

We too live under the shadow of an old, crumbling empire—one not of planets, but of Earthly institutions. A hidden elite, perhaps not literal clones but certainly bred from the same ancient bloodlines, have ruled for centuries through secrecy, manipulation, and control. Now, as consciousness rises and cracks appear in their façade, we witness the beginnings of collapse—and, possibly, the blueprint of something new.

A recent video by Valir (linked below) offers a sharp analysis of these themes. While many in the truth-seeking community dismiss the idea of a "Galactic Federation of Light" as New Age psyop, Valir makes a number of compelling and pertinent points. He suggests that Asimov’s Foundation—consciously or unconsciously—lays out a disclosure blueprint: a covert plan seeded into our culture through story. In this reading, Hari Seldon’s psychohistory becomes a metaphor for suppressed sciences, hidden timelines, and encoded prophecies about the fall of the controllers and the rise of a new, decentralised civilisation.

The clone emperors may represent the self-replicating nature of elite power structures. The Foundation itself is an echo of Earth’s own off-grid, awakened collectives—those building parallel systems, guided not by fear but by foresight. What Asimov depicted as a centuries-long plan of social engineering might, in reality, be a cosmic signal—one that is finally activating now.

We are, perhaps, in the opening chapters of our own psychohistorical collapse—and rebirth.

As always, discernment is key. But it’s becoming harder and harder to write off these parallels as coincidence. If Asimov was dreaming of the future, perhaps the future he saw was our present.
