|content=If you want to know whether there are biological interstellar visitors here observing us, the short answer is “Almost *certainly* not if they are using our current stagnant non-progressing  theories of physics.”

Let’s finally get serious about this whacky subject? Thanks. 🙏

|content=Now I feel completely alone.
 
I want our wanting out of this story. I have a huge dog in this fight. I spend every day fighting my own human desire for GU to be proven correct.
 
I believe this is how String Theorists stopped being scientists.
 
I just want our data & the physics.

|content=If biological aliens were here from others star systems in crafts that defy the current physics of the standard model and, more importantly, general relativity, I would be one of the few people who would have a guess on day one as to how they must have gotten here. It’s tempting.

|content=I don’t think biological interstellar alien visitors using GR and the SM make much sense. So I try to have a war *inside* my own mind as to what is true. I have a genuine “Need to Know” as to whether this is BS NatSec space opera disinformation theater. Because to me, it is data.

|content=What just happened isn’t data. It’s that a sober individual just pushed one of the many longstanding highly conserved NHI narratives collected from *many* diverse sober NatSec informants over the sworn testimony line. And it gets a LOT crazier from here. But it’s not science yet.

|content=As I‘ve been saying, there is so much deliberate NatSec BS out here that our own scientists are being propagandized. We’re drilling holes in our own scientists’ lifeboat. Last time we saw this it was virologists/immunologists/epidemiologists being gaslit. Now it’s physicists.

|content=Let me be very careful in what I am about to say. We have at least the appearance and optics of scientific self-sabotage. And wanting things to be true is how science dies.
 
I fight like hell to promote my theory. But I’d sign on to another to know the truth if I was wrong.

|content=We may be looking at the birth of a new UFO religion. Or a moment of contact. Or a long running Disinformation campaign. Etc.
 
To go beyond GR, let’s be scientists & get NatSec out of our data first. Where is our data pruned of space opera disinformation and cultic religiosity?

Why are we not stopping to QUESTION quantum gravity after 70 years of public *FAILURE* inspired by Babson-Behnson patronage of RIAS, the Institute of Field Physics and the precursor to Lockheed?

|content=This is the 50th year of stagnation in the Standard Model Lagrangian. It is AS IF we are deliberately trying to forget how to do actual physics. Everyone who has succeeded in Particle Theory in standard terms is now over 70. This is insane. In 25 years there will be no one left.

|content=Why are we not admitting that quantum gravity is killing physics and is the public respectable face of  1950s anti-gravity mania that lives on to murder all new theories in their cradle?
 
Quantum Gravity is fake and works to stop actual physics.
 
There. I said it. Now let’s talk.

|content=I highly recommend learning about the history of where H-1B came from before getting emotionally invested in it.
 
It was born as a labor tampering conspiracy against American scientists headquartered at the @theNASEM (GUIRR) & @nsf (PRA) under Erich Bloch.

|content=Vivek: this hurt a lot of Americans.
 
I invited you to a public debate about your claims as I’ve been fighting this insinuation of inferior American values in STEM for 35 years or more.
 
It’s a myth that came out of the @NSF & @theNASEM.
 
Let’s debate this in public. On camera.

|content=This is fascinating. Erich Bloch and Peter  House employed economists to specifically and intentionally design our scientific immigration system to drive down U.S. scientific compensation using foreigners and “lures”. Yes, the '''@nsf''' and @theNASciences in 1986 secretly designed our U.S. stem system so that our STEM employers could save money if we drove away our own top STEM talent.
 
Scientific backstabbing. Plain and simple. We took the world’s top scientific workforce and destroyed it to save money on science salaries and to get access to more pliant employees. Why? Because our leaders appointed idiots to save a few bucks. I’m sorry but that is what happened.
 
So, who is this Collins guy and what is he doing at the top of the U.S. science pile? Why are we listening to him? Is he some great thinker? Is he some kind of policy genius? Is he more ethical and merit loving  than the rest of us slobs and mere mortals?
 
Ah. Yes. I remember now. Francis Collins! The one who calls for “devastating” take downs against his “fringe” MD/PhD professorial colleagues and their work. And yet, here he is again! Why won’t he slink off somewhere where he can’t do even more damage? Why is he here??
 
This is what DC science policy circles look like. Two faced. Francis Collins would end your career without a second thought for principaled scientific dissent. As he tried to do to my colleague @DrJBhattacharya at Stanford.
 
He should not be speaking for science. He does not represent science.
 
Science cannot afford Francis Collins and his culture of backstabbing officials.

|content=You are discussing the use of outside referee reports.
 
The codification of “Peer Review” is a different beast.
 
Outside referees were at the *discretion* of editors.
 
“Peer Review” was a last ditch promise made to government funders: “Will you stay out of our research if we agree to give away much of our discretion?”
 
You want to look up: Medicare act, MACOS, Baumann amendment, Utah medical clinics, and the NSF peer review wars of 1975.

|content=Michael Shermer: you are quite incautious about what I say. Your world is dominated by careful scientists and wild eyed conspiracy theorists. The idea of wild eyed scientists (e.g. Francis Collins, Gerald Bull, Peter Daszak, Edward Teller) and careful conspiracy theorists (e.g. Seymour Hersh, William Davidon, Jack Raper, Gary Webb, etc) doesn’t occur to you nearly enough.
 
Roughly speaking I claimed that the U.S. government was, at a minimum, faking UFOs  and that there is ample evidence that we FAKE exactly such things (which I documented) and destroy our own people’s sanity, reputations, careers and lives on a regular basis playing the “That sounds like a conspiracy theory!!” game.
 
Which is *exactly* what just happened in UFO land. We admitted we did what I claimed we were likely doing when I was on Rogan.
 
And what I claim about our failed 40 year “Quantum Gravity” and “String Theory” program is simply that it completely disabled a potentially dangerous activity: successfully discovering and sharing the power of new physics in open universities with foreign nationals of rival nations well beyond the Manhattan Project era nuclear physics. Is that deliberate? It sure as hell would be a lot less suspicious if we ever had the string theorist/quantum gravity people at the same conference head to head with their rivals and detractors. Wouldn’t it?
 
I’m sorry this seems crazy to you. But the U.S. government makes shit up. It’s called “Covert Operations”. In laymen’s terms: we conspire to gaslight our own people. And we do it a lot around national security.
 
Now would you please consider that you are carrying water for the very people that do this particularly vile form of reputational wet work? Is that what you want to do??
 
Enough.
 
I was writing about the danger of a manipulated CPI in 1996 (now admitted). The fake NSF labor shortage (now discredited) in the 1980s. Biden’s cognitive crisis for all 4 years of his presidency (now known to all). The fake racism charges against the Wuhan Lab leak theory (ahem).
 
Etc. See the pattern?
 
Michael: you do not get to do this cheaply. You live in a simplified world of good rational people and bad madmen. I live in a different world and the scourge of that world is the shitty debunker making fun of the scientists with the courage to say “Uh, ya know the mainstream position just doesn’t add up.”
 
Conspiracy is everywhere. And those of us who are disciplined in talking about them do not need you telling us what is possible based on heuristics.
 
I don’t think our secret federal scientists are in possession of the final theory at all. I have never said “We have anti-gravity.”
 
Stop stirring the pot. You are not the amazing Randi and I am not a spoon bender. I debunk debunkers. Deal with that first.
 
If you want to go head to head with my track record, let me know. I would LOVE that.
 
If not: be more careful.
 
Like a scientist. Thanks.
 
No hard feelings.

|content=We cut off the academic oxygen to anyone who challenges the leadership.
 
Invite me back to Harvard as the co-founder of the Science and Engineering Workforce Project in the @HarvardEcon department and I will give a talk on how this really works. You don’t have to pay me a cent if you video it.
 
I’ll cover:
 
The need to fire Claudine Gay.</br>
The need to end activist studies depts.</br>
University Bioweapon research</br>
String Theory</br>
CPI Cost of Living</br>
Evolutionary theory applied to Humans</br>
Low Dimensional Geometry</br>
NSF STEM Shortage Panics</br>
DEI hiring against merit</br>
Epstein and Science</br>
Cognitive abilities expectations in Geographicly widely separated populations.
 
We can do it in Memorial Hall to overflow crowds or one of the ground floor Science Center halls.
 
It can’t happen. You aren’t serious about this. You are looking for a little truth. Not a return to actual white knuckle science.
 
Or am I wrong in this? I have the credentials having done this work *AT* Harvard. Let me know.
