|content=Moral: China already knows what we are doing by and large. American science is built on a model: they supply highly reliable workers, we supply our asymmetric scientific advantages born of our freedom. Don’t hate the PRC and their students. The US is always giving away the store.

|content=“Graduate Students in STEM” is mostly a euphemism for America’s dirt cheap scientific workforce. Everyone in Science knows this by the way & admits it behind closed doors. Everyone.
 
[We lie in public just to save millions FYI.]
 
Now let’s talk about that overflight by a balloon.

|content=@skdh I acknowledge my desires as you see from what I wrote. But a stagnant community always wants outcomes. It wants SUSY. Or Strings. Or some g-2 muon anomaly. Etc.
 
I want too. But what I want is mostly just a desire to get the BS out of physics so we can get back to succeeding.

|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 was the [[Mansfield Amendment (1969)|Mansfield Amendment]] passed?
 
Why did '''NSF''' fake a [[Labor Shortages|labor shortage]] in our MARKET economy destroying American STEM labor markets?
 
What stopped the [[General Relativity|Golden Age Of General Relativity]]?
 
Why was the SSC really cancelled?

Why are we not stopping to QUESTION [[Quantum Gravity|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|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=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=I swear I didn't write my tweet to make you feel alone and I'm genuinely sorry if that was the result. That said, I think it's better to acknowledge one's hopes and desires than to pretend they don't exist and thereby overestimate one's own rationality.

|content=For people not in the scientific world: “debate” is not something that generally happens. Instead, scientists give talks, present posters at conferences, and publish, all of which offer opportunities for peer review, critiques, and discussion of the data or its interpretation.
