Remember, you were told that phrase. It's not like you were shown incontrovertible truth from God. You didn't get into a time machine and go to the future to be shown it was in fact their symbols that caused their ruin. As if you know for certain that if they didn't use so much corny symbolism, they'd have won it all.
Imagine you were a billionaire. And you were fluent in two languages:
English
English, in a way that won't hold you accountable in a Court of Law
Which language would you speak, if you were doing anything nefarious? Anything potentially embarrassing? Anything that involves the government or justice system itself?
It is actually entirely logical that such a language would come to fruition with the rise of the printed press, and later, the telegraph and HAM radio.
