Discussion on Secrecy and Advanced Technology

Well, we have a couple of other superpowers on the planet that might love to know what

we've harvested and is it something that they can overcome or not.

And so as long as we keep our stuff secret,

they don't dare make a move.

Could be some kind of a detente sort of balance of power thing

that we need to maintain that secrecy just for national security.

And you couldn't say, well,

I'll show you mine if you show me yours.

Because are they really giving you the full story or are they just doing,

giving you some token pieces of information to get at what you're holding?

You know that's what they would do.

Yeah, so it can't be done.

And so it's probably a pretty good safety chain on the whole mess

to have the books slam tight. A lot of people don't understand me on that. What?

You know, are you taking the government side?

Well, in this case, I think their secrecy is justified and

necessary. Yeah, I still, I agree with that, but I think they could still just loosen their belts a little bit.

Well, and admitting that there's something, which they've done,

and the public says, well, that's not enough.

They're saying, yeah, so what else is new? A big deal, you know? We want more,

like free energy. Can't do that.

Well, yeah. You know, it would destroy the monetary systems of the planet to have free energy.

What do you think would happen overnight if energy could be free?

Just that.

Well, we'd have a big problem.

Well, especially if... We'd have a big problem.

Any big leap in technology would really collapse our economy.

Even if we could... Even if they didn't weaponize it, which they would immediately,

how can we use this to defeat our enemies?

Yeah, that's going to be step one, is turn it into a weapon.

But any advanced technology, even if we could teleport from place to place, or jump like these guys do,

great distances, where you don't need cars suddenly, if you don't need cars,

planes, or... The post office or anything, you can get anywhere you want to do immediately.

Nobody has a job. Everything's a support service for those or part of those.

And same thing with energy. The whole world economy.

Yeah. So, I don't know what you do with really advanced technology.

It's too big. I mean, technology could be too good to release. Yeah.

I think the situation, we're stuck with it.

People need to be far more understanding than they are to be granted much more than what they're getting.

You know, we fancy ourselves as civilized people.

You know, we leave the building here and we drive down the streets and everything's fine.

But the truth is, from the alien's point of view,

the natives are getting restless.

We're a bunch of savages constantly at each other's throat,

killing each other at phenomenal rates.

How many thousand this week?

Come on. You know, they can even talk about that on TV and,

you know, that's not incredibly alarming.

Not anymore, no.

Now it's just something.

Well, the aliens see it all.

And not the... polished, optimized side,

so aside from being shot out, just seeing us behave, how we behave towards each other,

I can understand perfectly why they would not come down and share advanced technology with us.

That would be a foolish thing to do, that's like giving a three-year-old a loaded gun.

Yeah, exactly.

I would, I'd make the same move they did.

But of course it makes you wonder what they're doing here.

Is it just a, is it a Disneyland thing, or you should stop by Earth and check out the natives there?

Or is there really something? The Europeans started exploring the world, they encountered cultures that were, you know, basically in the Stone Age, and the contact was very destructive.

They weren't ready for all that came with it, especially not things like modern firearms and whatnot.

Yeah, advanced technology contact is always destructive.

It's never worked out well in history.

But does that mean that we're just left to stew in our own juices?

I think, uh... The aliens have a strategy.

I mean, this is just my own theory

They observe our behavior and

I've made that advance the theory that

UFO sightings are not accidental

Where they're just ah

Humans spotted us again. We're gonna have to be more careful.

You think they're intentional.

I think they're intentional You know, I think they could do everything they're doing here and remain undetected

but what's Allowed to be seen is to as a reminder, you know a hint

They're just a tease.

Yeah something things could be a lot better if it would just

Get our act together

Hmm that'd be great if that was that was accurate

well

just the awareness that there's a better way a different way a more advanced way

could

Maybe inspires some leaders to want to pull us in that direction

make us Compatible with

More advanced societies

But a bunch of savages at this point, yeah, it's gonna be a different set of leaders I think I

Don't think anyone's thinking along those lines at the moment anyway
