Assume any encrypted system can be decrypted at some point anyway. The best encryption is at the source- your language and the way you present the message you want to keep hidden.
Of course, this does not apply to people who just want their general conversation encrypted. To you, I say you're out of luck and I'm sorry.
I suspect you can easily relate to the frustration of being dragged into arguments on irrelevant details of a thing for which the actual concerns are fundamental in nature. That's not nothing.
yep, like a magician driving your sight to his left hand...
