do you guys remember the super interesting BLC1 signal? considering that this happened not long after that signal what if it was an SOS? and it will never be repeated because this thing killed any civ in the vicinity https://www.space.com/amp/proxima-centauri-emits-largest-stellar-flare.html

what does disabled mean? they somehow neutered the required atomic process for explosion? mechanically hosed with the bomb? beamed it up and subbed in some bananas?

the only ground im willing to cede the military is that they wouldnt release footage from a system that they havent already sold to everyone else or know for a fact that said systems capabilities are already well known and anyone whose anyone has them. there may be super HD stuff theyre sitting on that we will never see simply cos it was filmed via some classified system

i never did get why society was supposed to fall into a screaming heap at the first sign of anything weird like aliens. the fears of rioting and stock market fuckery and people turning into gibbering idiots is based on what really? if i go full tinfoil hat and also assume that disclosure means someone has been hiding free energy, a way past the need for money, all that happy crappy and that it had been held back for decades for profit then maybe some places would experience extreme social unrest but cmon...people dont go insane at the sight of things that are strange. why is this fairly unimaginative thought that we find other life and can talk with it going to break the back of the world in the first place?

Radical 90s Wizard posted:I always remember a Signals Sgt in the army who was teaching our class on like, radio wave propagation or something. Dude flat-out told us that he'd picked up old radio transmissions from WWII and that was a known-occurrence for Sigs. Because the transmissions would go out into space, and ping around the loving galaxy for 70-odd years then miraculously come back to earth. He absolutely believed it and taught it to us as fact, even though it was complete obvious bullshit. And if you ever tried to question anything like this, they'd just pull rank and shut you down. they never did get to the bottom of that. its pretty well documented that some signals take longer than they should for *reasons* that no ones ever worked out. it gets very fringe very quick too but is a valid riddle

WEH posted:I dunno if I agree with War of the Worlds being the reason. People were a different kind of stupid back then, and were very much primed to go nuts about it in a way that no longer exists, imo. it did sound like a newcast, it was meant to sound real. all the discalimers before shows didnt help lol people thought they were hearing actual news and acted accordingly. and it was an invasion! nothing nice about those aliens

DOCTOR ZIMBARDO posted:But think about what you know about like, manufacturing consent and getting people to do basic poo poo like show up to work or consider themselves part of a nation state that has goals and does political poo poo. Or even what gets people to like, work together outside that context whether it’s part of a job or a movement or family or whatever. yeah this bit is the best i get to. and it seems important that its less "oh poo poo aliens better burn my town" and more "keep the blinkers on them" in which case any subsequent societal rage would have some context at least. no one likes being told "you dont need to know" no matter how old you get to be.

fanfic insert posted:Humans have not been able to communicate with any other species other than teaching them tricks or to associate phrases with activities and we treat every other species terribly. I dunno what that means in the context but I'm sure there's some kind of inherent "we had it coming" sort of thing. Just think of the discourse around covid and how it's "the earth fixing us". We're just a really self loathing species I think. collective guilt, though maybe earned is so very indulgent that its disgustingly probable actually yeah collective being the thing there i think a big chunk of people, not lots but not isolated either, but a lot still would become somewhat disconencted enough to cause problems for the money machine and day to day that maybe thats part of the issue self loathing? how can u acknowledge human progress and politics and not be disgusted? acknowledging you are a tiny cog and daring to think outside of whatever is enslaving you? this is dangerous aliens or no and always has been

WEH posted:I know you know it's a thing but it's described over and over in NUFORC to a degree that even surprised me. Even if it's "just" a psychological phenomenon or something akin to leaded gasoline driving people nuts something wild is going on if the ppl who say free will doesnt exist are correct then it also follows that a suitable knowledge and toolset focused on a person could "compel" them to go outside or whatever for a probin it might also explain the dissonance ppl report like "i knew i should go inside but my body wasnt listening to me" the kind of control the various alphabet guys would happily do anything for lol
