(But they probably will be)
Many people very into UFOs were also being louder than convenient about the Epstein files. It's a domestic distraction, not unlike the Iran war.
If people are talking about maybe-aliens that's a conversation that isn't about the president raping children.
Vamos a ver…
imo ufo disclosure is probably the most important thing a democratic government could do right now, and one of the few things it could actually succeed at.
i doubt there will be official popular contact in my lifetime, but orienting a nuclear and AI capable civilization to a place relative to others seems timely.
AI is the perfect (and necessary) bridging and filtering tech for transferring ideas from a more advanced civilization, as it's an integration layer. it's "us" as the sum of our knowledge, but its notionally superior, and can be adapted and expanded, where it's a proxy or buffer for ontological shocks.
im optimistic on this.
One can try to craft scenarios that try to split between those two branches, but I haven't come up with anything very credible. For instance, it is just faintly possible that this whole thing is one gigantic ten-thousand-way misunderstanding, but even then I find it hard to believe nobody in any position to get to the bottom of such a thing did and then did something sensible with the result.
At this point I pretty much won't believe anything they say, in any direction. No matter what the truth may be, "they", for all suitable values of "they", have burnt all their credibility already. No matter what the truth is, "they" have clearly been throwing up vast quantities of smoke for decades now.
I say this without much opinion on what the truth is, because this is independent of any particular person's beliefs on the matter. Nor do I have strong opinions on who "they" is; yes, I'm using it as a pronoun without a referent, but at least I'm doing so knowingly. I don't know who exactly is doing this and "they" is just the grammatically-correct way to express that in English. No matter what you believe and no matter what the truth actually is, I think this is a fair assessment.
Either they will release enough that gives conspiracy theorists the proof that confirms all their theories (spoiler: it won't) or this itself will become another thread in the cover-up, just like those "Epstein Files, Volume 1" binders Pam Bondi was giving to MAGA influencers.
Don’t know what’s worse: wondering if there is alien life or knowing there is alien life in a distant system somewhere but having no further information that can be learned about them.
but still the distances of both time and space are insurmountable
But sounds normal for this joke of an admin.
The government uses drupal a lot, not surprised to see them use WP, however I wouldn’t be surprised if they don’t administer it well
