I disagree, because I didnt belive in aliens, but I am here on these boards because of the news I just saw, literaly Grusch, I came here to find deeper investigations into what actually is going on, becuase it seems insane to me that someone can be in military intelligence, and yet hold the beliefes that Grusch does.
In 2017, I was also like, "wait what??? aliens are real!??" then mick west goes and gives me the answers I need to know, of course they are not.
Yet here I am, again, why?
Because of the secrets. I do believe they are keeping secrets, and I want to know what the f is going on.
Is it aliens? I literally dont care.
What I believe it is: I believe the pentagon is TOO BIG, not efficient, wasteful, it seems like people in intelligence positions are a little more willing to believe in interdimensional beings, than I feel comfortable.
I have a relative who works in a fairly high up position in the US Secret Service. I recently asked him what his thoughts about the Grusch allegations were and at the time he hadn't heard of him so couldn't comment on my question specifically. When I told him what some of Grusch's claims were, he proceeded to tell me that he didn't find such claims to be that crazy or implausible. He then started talking about the US Space Force, and how he found it odd that all of the sudden the government would seem to be in a rush to get a Space Force up and running. He wondered why we even need one, let alone be in a rush to develop one, since the United States already has control and dominance over satellites and as far as he can tell there's no country that can currently challenge the US or threaten our satellites and dominance in space. Because there is no credible threat (in his mind) he deduces that the creation of the space force is very likely due to an
outside threat "they" know about, a threat that has spooked them enough to make the creation of the space force a top priority. He believes if it's not an outside threat of some sort (ie aliens) there is no rationale for creating this new branch of the armed services.
He also shared things he's heard about in certain classes he's had to take from guest lecturers and professors. Claims such as the technology that you and I possess is always roughly at least ten years behind what the government actually possesses. Claims like researchers (I forget for who, may have been Lockheed Martin) have found a way to store data and information in (I forget exactly what amount) cubes of
water. Terabytes and terabytes of information that can be stored in liquids. Claims about if we think ChatGpt is incredible, imagine what "they" have behind the scenes that the public doesn't know about.
Let me repeat that this is a family member in a high level position in the US Secret Service. Nothing he told me is classified (obviously) but rather claims he's heard made by professors and industry representatives for (edited, previously said Skunkworks but I very likely misremembered and it was just a normal Lockheed Martin person, I doubt anyone who works in Skunkworks goes around advertising it) in a class full of other people with security clearances like himself. When I pointed out to him that technology doesn't work in a vaccum, and that technological advancements can always be traced sequentially over the years he simply said "maybe that's what they want you to believe."
How much of what he relayed to me he personally believes, I don't know. But it was extremely obvious that he at least seriously entertains some of these claims far more than I do. Again,
this is a person in a high ranking role in the secret service, and yet we have clear as day evidence that his rank, security clearances, and over two decades in the service have not made him any less likely to fall for conspiratorial theorizing and prone to believing extremely fantastical stories about things like the space force despite very obvious boring alternative explanations being available.
People in every part of government are just like you and I. They have the same biases we have, and are as prone to leaps of logic and fantastical thinking as anyone else. *Anyone* can fall victim to believing strange and ridiculous things and it's dangerous to think we're ever immune to falling victim to these kinds of thinking traps. It's dangerous to think just because someone works in the intelligence community that they're somehow immune. Hell,
I've come close to falling for these things many times despite how vigilant I constantly strive to be.
It's not a huge surprise that people in high levels of the government believe all sorts of weird shit. It's not necessarily something to be alarmed about either.
catch 22.
