|content=As I said before, I have no idea what to make of the UAP shift of our government. But I do know that this period is unlike *any* other epoch. And there are many *different* unprecedented things that could happen so close to the source code as we have been for 50 to 75 years.

|content=The number of higher credibility officials or former officials choosing to walk right up to, yet generally not over, the line of confirming alien encounters via UAP has changed markedly.
I have always avoided UFO discussion. This makes that impossible:

|content=No one knows how to talk about this. It isnā€™t our top headline.
My question is *how* is this not our top headline? Either the defense department is pranking the entire world or we have the largest dire security mystery on earth or we have contact.
All 3 would be our top story.

Only donā€™t say UFO...say UAP. And when we ask ā€œSo...aliens?ā€ They say ā€œThis is not consistent with the capabilities of any nation.ā€

|content=Every threat against a head of state is taken seriously. Even the absurd ones. It is cheaper to dot a few ā€œiā€s and cross a few ā€œtā€s than to not worry about such threats.
Obviously.
UAP, Gain Of Function, New Physics, MANPADS, loose nukes, etc should be the same.
Obviously.

|content=When our experts now talk openly about all these UFOs they talk about their ā€œtechnologyā€.
And every time they do, I replace the word ā€œtechnologyā€ with the word ā€œphysicsā€ for the obvious reasons. Because if non-terrestrial craft are here, physics > technology.

|content=Imagine if these UAP were actually visitors from beyond the local solar neighborhood. You wouldnā€™t be focused on their technology first. Youā€™d want to understand how they got here and if they used new physics to do so. Most importantly, youā€™d want to know about dimension hacking.

|content=We are somehow no longer worried about any new physics. We are so sure it wonā€™t suddenly progress in an unexpected way or unlock anything new that we arenā€™t even paying attention to the field. After String Theory it all feels ironic.
This is potentially a *catastrophic* mistake.

|content=Iā€™m not saying that the UAP/UFO stuff is šŸ‘½. I am saying that weā€™re being *told* itā€™s šŸ‘½ in a game.
The game: we present a mystery (UFOs) and then take away all but one option. If you guess *anything* but šŸ‘½, we tell you it is de facto been ruled out.
Guess šŸ‘½, and we shrug šŸ¤·ā€ā™€ļø.

We just get pulled farther and farther out. Like a rip-tide you donā€™t even notice.

As in zero. Maybe I just donā€™t get it but I really really donā€™t get it. Can anyone make this make sense? Why is the leadership of the US scientific community totally absent?

The number of top relevant academicians commenting is near zero. This is very odd because we know from the Manhattan project that you need to tap your academics. Thoughts?

It is scientific data. It is physics data.
We need to get it to our physicists. Not just our aerospace companies & defense contractors.

|content=25000 of you answered. Almost 3 in 4 of you believe either that UFOs are a deliberate fabrication of the government and/or Next Generation US Tech, or from some previously unknown advanced civilization.
About 1 in 4 say the US is just incompetent (in error or being leapfrogged).

Over 2/5 of you have already gone to some form of alien explanation.
Even at this crude level I find this fascinating having run several of these Twitter polls in the past.

So I am WAY late to this party.
Why? Because I thought this was all bullshit. I shutdown most every conversation until last year on this.
Why? Because it seemed obviously preposterous. I trusted.

I think we sent a signal to the cosmos in 1945 and then on Nov. 1, 1952. Fusing Nuclei is what you do JUST before you become root. If this is right, we let the cosmos know ā€œEarth is root adjacentā€ w/o awareness.

|content=Is there anyone in the cosmos listening? Perhaps not. But we are all acting as if living on a terrestrial surface with the ability to fuse nuclei is some totally normal thing due to <70 years of good luck. Which is insane.
Now what if Iā€™m right in the above and the cosmos cares?

|content=The idea of a newly space-time-faring unwise civilization with fresh root level access is a nightmare. And no one but no one on earth takes this seriously anymore. After 1952 fundamental physics went on progressing normally for ~20yrs. So after that itā€™s been~50yrs of stagnation.

|content=In those ~50yrs we learned to stop worrying. About Fusion-weapons, interstellar travel, a cosmos that listens or even our ability to progress to the end. In 1984, physicists were talking about the end of physics without irony. They then failed, while failing to report failure.

|content=One request: stop speculating. Some folks are reaching out. They pulled back a bit. And I for one may stop talking about this if asked due to the security issues. But that which has been shared with the public is not enough to go on. Itā€™s the indirect evidence we are watching. šŸ™

|content=For those of you speculating on channels reaching out to Sam Harris, myself and others on UFO/UAP. There was a minimum of one planned dissemination that got called off for reasons unknown. I am not at liberty to discuss. But I can say why people like Sam are likely to be quiet.

|content=What has so far been released to the public by government has been minimal. No one I know wants to incinerate credibility becoming a true believer over a tiny number of relatively low quality USG videos which, at least to me, prove absolutely nothing.
So then: why be interested?

|content=Because there is an ocean of weird behavior and claims coming from otherwise sober seeming USG and former USG people. And a lot of it is weirdly consistent. So Iā€™m totally underwhelmed by the direct evidence so far. But Iā€™m baffled by the indirect evidence. What generated this?

|content=I wonā€™t speak for @SamHarrisOrg. But I failed to generate *any* good explanation for the repeated and fairly consistent assertions of DOD/IC types with no evident training in acting or theater. To say nothing of ordinary non-USG people. Soā€¦none of us knows what to think. Truly.

|content=Something huge is up. It could be a psychological operation. It could be next generation spoofing by an adversary. It could be mass psychosis. But I donā€™t want to speculate beyond a decision tree. Something huge *is* up. And I dug hard, but failed to get beyond indirect evidence.

|content=What is worse, the most parsimonious explanations are the obvious two:
A) Our government is engaged in deception and utterly brilliant at it.
B) šŸ‘½.
If the former, it is more competent than we ever suspected.
Everything else is less parsimonious. But I canā€™t make sense of it.
