Backstory
Banojxot Xuh is a YouTube ARG that was posted to several country-themed subreddits, and appears to have a strong political focus. It has many codes hidden throughout the video and references to Slovakia along with a strong focus with the date, June 15h, 2017.
Originally, the video was posted in the England Subreddit but the user was banned, the post and the video deleted.
Then, on May 13th, an image was posted in the Slovakian Subreddit by an user called Banojxot (same as the YT channel) featuring a QR code that leads to our video with the words "Get Ready" in red and the date 15.6.17, or June 15th, 2017.
Later, on May 18th, the user Hamburger__96 posted a photo of a sort of flyer featuring the same image posted in r/Slovakia and the number 0023 handwritten in the back in the Germany subreddit. It is speculated that Hamburger__96 is the same person behind the Banojxot account on Reddit, although this is unclear.

It is similar to the first image, but has a few differences, such as yellow text saying, "no object is mysterious, the mystery is your mind" the text changing to "seven people", and a few color changes. It has been suggested that the image may contain additional clues hidden in it's RGB channels. Metadata and RGB channel analysis are pending.
