Writing about the concept of an antimeme - something self-censoring - is a hard one to get right, but I think it's mostly done well here. While it's sometimes hard to grasp, it never feels unrealistic that it exists and functions in this universe.
I did find it a bit frustrating to sort of restart the story over and over, and the way the story jumped around on the timeline made it unclear at times if the next chapter was continuing from the last one or if we had jumped to some other previous event. And the ending didn't feel very satisfying to me, I had hoped for something more really, it felt like it sort of just happened and then it was over.
Coming to this as someone somewhat familiar with the SCP universe heightened my enjoyment I think. Not having that background might make it a bit harder to absorb, but nevertheless it's an interesting and mostly fun read!
