Saw this on reddit. I still remain kind of skeptical but think all this is really interesting.

His comment that he has conversations where they’re all saying the public “can’t handle” whatever it is, is something I think about a lot.

With my cynacism i feel that we, the public, kind of are just cattle to the elites and super wealthy. Our purpose is to work and to buy stuff, which is the foundation to their wealth and power. Much better to keep us as dumb and ignorant as possible. Such a huge portion of the public is obsessed with celebrity gossip, sports, religious nonsense, etc.

A full disclosure that intelligent alien species exist and are here, would either be painful and debilitating to a large portion of people (fundamentalist religious people, the world over), or change other people to start thinking at a higher level other than just celebrity and sports shit, or how to get money to buy the next new gadget or token of status.

If people start thinking, we’ve been being lied to by those in power, what else is there? Why does Kim Kardashian deserve to be a billionaire, when millions of children die of starvation every year? Why does someone have to work 40hrs a week in a factory doing manual labor that could be easily automated by AI or robotics (because it’s cheaper for the human to do it), etc., etc.

My comment might be tangent from the UFO topic, but it’s what I think of why they don’t want to disclose, or at least a possibility.

    Yes, one of a growing string of similar incidents in which we have been unable to identify or engage these unmanned vehicles. They are not even trying to conceal their presence, yet operate with impunity for weeks in restricted airspace, to the point fighters were relocated from Langley to other bases. If the Air Force can’t control the air over Langley how can they control the air over Washington? I encourage people to go to the War Zone’s website and search these terms, “Drones and Guam” or

    “Drones and Colorado” or “Drones and Palo Verde” or “Drones and FAA or Arizona or Navy” and see what you find. Most people think drones are just a problem for countries overseas. Not true, we have a big problem here in the US and still no clue where these things are coming from or why.
