My Humble View On Why Alien Visitations Never Decrease

 For a number of years, I've entertained the whole discussion of UFOs and aliens....to the point that I have no doubt of the existence.  But I've come to the key question....if you've come from far, far, far away....you've arrived to discover that Earth is probably a thousand years to a million years behind your 'standard'....why linger?

If you had your typical PhD American scientist, on some junket 'tour' to a planet where some beings existed but they were at the mid-1700s 'pace-of-things'.....would you go and linger long?  In a group of ten, I would imagine there would be a vote, and some minor agreement to stick around for 90 days but mostly admit that there's just not much to 'discover'.  One or two of the PhD guys would be all pepped-up to spend years there to understand the vast nature of this society.  The rest?  No....simply move on.

My gut feeling is that some of these alien cultures have reached a level of boredom....being more than 20,000 years more advanced, and they would have voted for permanently visiting Earth....simply out of boredom. 

Yorg and Yurg would get up daily....shower...soak up 1,500 calories of some bean dip mixture....then spend a dozen hours watching Italian operas, Mexican soap operas, and reruns of Dallas.  Later, they'd have a alien staff meeting where each shared their discovery of the day, then soak up some more bean dip, and sleep while listening to some Elvis tunes. 

I think the bosses of Yorg and Yurg would occasionally visit....asking why continuing the mission but find that everyone is addicted to the Earth reality show.

It's reached some level where a dozen-odd alien groups are basically hiding out....viewing the whole landscape of Earth reality, and they simply can't get enough.  

But adding to this mess....the Pentagon has figured all of this out, and basically can't believe the soap opera story.  They want the evil-threat story to be key part to telling this.

Where this goes, if you were finding out the whole situation, and that you were mostly the entertainment for these awful bored aliens?  That's the key question.....how you would handle this.  

Are Podcasters The 2024 'Controllers'?

 When you go back to 2008, 2010,  2012, 2014, 2016, 2018, 2020....the election cycle was mostly controlled by NPR, CNN, Fox, MSNBC, and the three big TV networks.  

I will suggest....this group has turned the corner and now facing a period where their 'product' (influenced news) cannot compete against the top ten podcast groups (Tucker Carlson, Timcast, Rogan, Valuetainment, Trigonometry, Megyn Kelly, Lex Fridman, etc).  

Among independent voters, I'd say almost half of them will be influenced more by podcast folks rather than TV or radio situations.

Even among young Democratic voters....I'd take a guess that one-third of them are greatly influenced by the podcast crowd.  

This loss of respect on TV and radio?  Yeah, I'd say it bothers them greatly....unable to generate 'gain'.

The fact that Trump might be ready and willing to be interviewed by any of them, while Biden avoids them?  That's a problem as well.  

All of this....forcing people to actually sit and listen to a conversation....instead of a lecture?  Yeah, and this is one of the odd aspects of reality in 2024.  The CNN lecture people or the NPR lecture people.....aren't going to have much value in the election.
