I'm not the one who brings him up, it's just that when people say, "But there's leaders in their field saying this!", there's no one else to talk about. He's the only "leader" I'm familiar with who is co-signing this claim about the government hiding UFOs.

It's fine for a biologist to talk about UFOs. I just think it's silly to make an Argument from Authority by invoking his name. His expertise is not in the right field nor do the rest of his colleagues agree with him.





Of course, but that's not what he's doing.





Not a very significant amount to make an Argument from Authority. If you're going to claim, "You're not listening to the experts", then it's pretty dumb to admit that you're ignoring 90% of the experts yourself.
Those TTSA scientists appear to have serious credentials. I’ll cite John Mack again. Then you have Ari Loeb (spelling?) from Harvard claiming he might have found alien made material at the bottom of the ocean. I’m not sure that study saying only 10% of scientists believe UFOs are alien means that 90% do not believe in the possibility that they could be alien made UFOs. Maybe they are unsure. I’d have to dig into the questions and answers to be sure.

Wouldn’t that be the plan though?
I
There’s media outlets specifically catered to following these celebs around, having the masses give a fukk about these ordinary people who are being worshipped just for being popular, rich, and being on tv…

But if there was some real shyt, serious shyt, or something possibly positive that could shift the entire worlds thought process.. wouldn’t you think they would try to hide, discredit, or delete whatever evidence or whoever’s lives just to keep that from coming out?

Every kind of video evidence gets “debunked” no matter how clear or grainy it comes out as..

There’s even video from our own military out now and people still trying to debunk it

But lets look at Kylie Jenner in 4k, that’s alright to put out there

Yall got to understand who actually owns all these media outlets.. the Foxs, the CNN’s, all the way to the gossip columns
Real rap :ehh:
He's a stellar debater though. I'll give him that. :manny:

I learned in grad school that one could win any argument, no matter the topic. Anybody skilled enough can win any argument, rather it is right or wrong or true or false. We, as humans, really don't know anything as an absolute fact. Every research paper can be criticized. Everything can be questioned. The only thing we really know as an absolute fact in my opinion is that nothing can't create something. Still some will argue that :francis:

Firsthand knowledge is the only thing that can really convince people, but even that can be questioned. Our senses do deceive us at times. That's why each individual has to make up their own mind for themselves by looking at the evidence, reading/listening/watching experts in the field, listening to experiencers' accounts, etc.

It's clear that some reach the conclusion that ufo/aliens exist, me included. For others they don't.
People very rarely take the time to think about what “nothing” actually means. There’s no such thing as “nothing” as people normally imagine “nothing” to mean.

Nothing = No Thing as in not an object. It is the energy that can transform into anything, it is just currently no thing at the moment.

Nothing is the possibility for anything. Literally everything came from nothing/no thing.

I’d like to hear more bout your idea of Absolute Infinity tho :feedme:

Something tells me it’s damn near the same thing but I like Absolute Infinity, that’s a cool way to put it :ehh:

Breh, Lazar claimed they were saucers flying on their sides, you posted an infrared image of a vague indeterminate shape NOT flying on its side, and then the infrared image rotates. It doesn't fly on its side anywhere in the video and there's not nearly enough detail in that video to even tell what shape the object is.

And, in fact, the craft isn't rotating at all, it's just a flare effect on the camera lens when the gimbal mechanism rotates. That is explained here:








That's not a "gravitation field", its an infrared image. That same sort of distortion effect around a hot object appears all the time, even for just regular-ass planes. Again, you can see that in the above video when he shows an image of a fighter plane under infrared and it has the same "field" around it.






You can't even see the shape of the object, you're seeing the HEAT signature. The object is producing far too much heat to discern an actual shape. Again, this is covered in the above video.






The actual pilots couldn't see the object in question while that action was going on, they were viewing it through the same camera that you're seeing there.






There isn't a single Navy video that defies physics. The claims that they do are simply a misunderstanding of the properties of the cameras used. All three Navy videos are covered in that video above. But if you have a physics-defying video, then post it.

And how would you see the exhaust in an infrared camera? Do you see the exhaust while viewing on infrared when a regular plane flies?

I posted a video from the US navy, not an image. You’re speaking as if you know yourself how the equipment operates because of a skeptic video that you watched when in reality none of us do. One thing for certain is, the most credible opinions are of the people who design the equipment and the ones who operate it.

You don’t know if it’s a flare effect, you think it’s a flare effect because you watched a video of a video game designer attempting to “debunk” the videos with makeshift experiments. I’ll trust the fighter pilots and sailors who are actually trained actually operate and are knowledgeable about how the technology works in the field over some random get making videos in his garage.

I highly doubt the US navy doesn’t know the difference between a “flare effect” and a UAP. Here’s a direct quote from David Fravor “It’s funny how people can extrapolate stuff who’ve never operated the system,” Fravor said of West’s critique. Fravor also told Fridman there were up to five other objects in the air that day flying in formation with the “Gimbal” aircraft and that several other sailors were tracking them.

That eliminates the whole “it was a jet plane” theory.

So, once again, it’s easy to make bootleg experiments in a garage but you’re talking about several eyewitnesses and some of the most advanced equipment in the world saying the same thing. Let’s say hypothetically everything the skeptic was saying was true. You have several navy fighter pilots and sailors all having eyewitness accounts of these UAPs flying with no type of jet propulsion system.

I never said it’s a gravitational field, I said it appears to be one. The reason I worded that way because the aura around the craft intensifies right before the craft accelerates/disappears. This is similar to what bob lazar described. You can’t compare it to the aura around a typical plane because it has an entirely different propulsion system that as of right now is physically impossible to produce.

Once again, the guy in the garage doesn’t know how much heat the craft is producing. Heat signatures are in the shape of the object that’s producing the heat. Human body’s under infrared lenses look exactly like human bodies. He even displays that in the video. The airfraft is clearly saucer shaped

I think it’s really arrogant to think YouTubers know more than the US military on how their equipment operates.

Yes you can see exhaust fumes in infrared but I already debunked this earlier in my post because eyewitness accounts proved that there was no exhaust or any type of propulsion system

I think nothing would mean absolutely no thing, including not having that energy you talk of. If nothing could create something, something (like that energy you speak of) would have to change that nothing into something else, meaning there was never no thing to begin with in the first place. We know something exists because we are experiencing something right now. It could be a dream, an illusion, anything, but it’s still something. If something exists that means there never was a time when nothing existed. That means there is no beginning, there is no creation. Religious folks could put god into this, and say god has always existed. If there is no beginning, there is no overarching time, because time requires a beginning. Time is an illusion That would mean everything is happening at once, like a 4D view of our perceived 3D existence. If there is no time, things that require time are illusions and don’t really exist. Creation is an illusion. Creating things is an illusion. Those objects have always existed at once infinitely.

I think that means absolutely everything we can possible think of and everything we haven’t thought of is existing right now at the exact same “time.” I don’t think there are boundaries in the multiverse, because boundaries would imply something would have had to create them, but creation doesn’t really exist. Also boundaries existentially don’t make sense to me. What is outside of the boundary?

So no boundaries, no limits, no creation, just infinite everything, absolute infinity in all directions, all dimensions, all consciousnesses, at the exact same time, at once. The infinity of all infinites. I deem this absolute infinity.

There are ramifications of this. I think it means there are no right or wrongs existentially because at some point in infinity you are doing every possible thing, both what we would consider good and what we would consider bad. It’s just a slice of infinity. Everything we experience is a slice of infinity.

But that’s not how we perceive life as humans, we’re trapped in the third dimension in this limited consciousness of ours. We perceive time even though it doesn’t exist.

It’s possible each of our “individual” consciousnesses are really like the tentacles on an an octopus. Those tentacles have mini brains and can act independently from the main octopus brain. But they really aren’t a different organism, they are just part of the octopus. Our experience of individuality may be just like that. We are just a part of absolute infinity, which I think is god. When we die, we don’t really die, we just go back to being part of the main absolute infinity.

That all might be confusing or unclear, but it’s a quick overview of my absolute infinity belief.

Nah you explained it well :salute:

And when I say energy, it’s for lack of a better word. Basically saying what people consider “nothing” would be closer to an energy that can turn into anything rather than complete non existence.

That was a dope breakdown :ehh:

I get what you are saying. It appears you don’t believe in absolutely no thing, because that energy always has existed infinitely. I just call that absolute infinity.

You're going to have to be more specific, because the TTSA scientists I've seen are clowns and the claims they're making about science are laughed at. None of them are "leaders in their field."

John Mack was a psychiatrist, not a scientist qualified to talk about alien technology or any of the other questions we're discussing here.

Ari Loeb is an astrologer who is looking for alien tech in meteorites. He's not co-signing any of the claims we're talking about here.

You don’t know if it’s a flare effect, you think it’s a flare effect because you watched a video of a video game designer attempting to “debunk” the videos with makeshift experiments. I’ll trust the fighter pilots and sailors who are actually trained actually operate and are knowledgeable about how the technology works in the field over some random get making videos in his garage.

Pilots are completely regular people. They were not selected to be pilots based on their knowledge of the internal workings of camera optics. When you meet real pilots you've find pilots who didn't even go to college, who are total a$$holes in person, who are arrogant beyond belief, who often have massive gaps in their knowledge....just like people in any other profession.

I mean hell, one of my pilot friends played this band for me and said it's every fighter pilot's favorite group. I swear all their songs (which are meant to be comically self-derogatory) are about getting drunk, not knowing how to maintain their equipment, and how arrogant pilots are. That's the stereotypical image of fighter pilots even among fighter pilots.




There's no reason to have an exalted image of pilots, especially when it comes to things that aren't even directly related to flying.




I highly doubt the US navy doesn’t know the difference between a “flare effect” and a UAP.

The very first example in the video is the Chilean Navy case, where the Navy spent two years looking at a UAP case and finally released it to the public, claiming there was no explanation, and then Mick West's website figured out the exact object (it was Iberia Airlines flight IB6830) in just five days of work. It's the same sorts of images and basic misinterpretations as this case - optical illusions causing them to not know the true distance to the craft.




Here’s a direct quote from David Fravor “It’s funny how people can extrapolate stuff who’ve never operated the system,” Fravor said of West’s critique. Fravor also told Fridman there were up to five other objects in the air that day flying in formation with the “Gimbal” aircraft and that several other sailors were tracking them.

That eliminates the whole “it was a jet plane” theory.

Fravor also claimed that his encounter with the "tic tac" object lasted five minutes, when the other pilot and weapon's specialist who were there said it was only 8-10 seconds. So he should be a bit more humble about whether operating the system makes you infallible.

Fravor's claim that other objects were there and other sailors had been tracking them relies on the object in view being the same objects that had previously been tracked. Which is likely not true - as the video points out, one of the main misperceptions that led to confusion in the Navy incidents was that they often mistook large-but-far objects that were out of their radar range for close-but-small objects that had appeared on their radar. There is no evidence that the object actually imaged on Gimbal is the same thing the sailors had seen flying (more like "drifting") in formation.



So, once again, it’s easy to make bootleg experiments in a garage but you’re talking about several eyewitnesses and some of the most advanced equipment in the world saying the same thing.

The eyewitness statements differ radically from each other, and radically from the equipment. In this case they didn't even have a visual on the object outside of the infrared camera. Please cite in which instance there were multiple eyewitnesses and equipment making the same observation.

I suggest you read this in full to understand just how many discrepancies and alternate interpretations were involved in some of these sightings:





Let’s say hypothetically everything the skeptic was saying was true. You have several navy fighter pilots and sailors all having eyewitness accounts of these UAPs flying with no type of jet propulsion system.

There are numerous instances of pilots being fooled by parallax effect. Did you listen to the part of the video where West gives a theory for what Fravor saw? Fravor claims that the object reverse-mirrored every movement he made - that when he descended it rose, that when he circled it reverse-circled, that when he rushed towards it, it rushed towards him. Do you realize that's the PERFECT explanation of a parallax effect? The object never moved independently of his movements, but because he misinterpreted where the object was against its background, it always looked like it was moving in the exact opposite direction of how he moved. And that also matches the way in which the other pilots dispute several of Fravor's statements regarding the object's movement, though their stories are also impacted by Fravor's narrative and the claims he was making while he told them what he was going to do.

Fravor isn't going to admit this because 1) he's strongly built the narrative of what happened in his mind and 2) there's a lot of ego involved in the claims and going out on a limb about UAPs, and he'd feel really dumb to say it was all a mistake especially considering his status in the community.




I never said it’s a gravitational field, I said it appears to be one.

breh come on. :mjlol:




The reason I worded that way because the aura around the craft intensifies right before the craft accelerates/disappears. This is similar to what bob lazar described. You can’t compare it to the aura around a typical plane because it has an entirely different propulsion system that as of right now is physically impossible to produce.

The "aura" doesn't come from the propulsion system. The aura is a a sharpening effect that comes from the image processing, it's basically just the compression algorithm over-sharpening the boundary around a hot image.




Once again, the guy in the garage doesn’t know how much heat the craft is producing. Heat signatures are in the shape of the object that’s producing the heat. Human body’s under infrared lenses look exactly like human bodies. He even displays that in the video. The airfraft is clearly saucer shaped

Heat signatures are in the shape of the heat, not the object producing the heat. For a human, the heat signature is in the shape of a human body because the entire body produces heat. But on a jet, the heat is being produced by the engines, not the entire craft - the wings are far cooler and produce comparatively little heat. If you're close enough you'll be able to see that the jet body is warmer than the background, but at a distance or if the engines are running especially hot, they're going to drown out the rest of the signal.




Yes you can see exhaust fumes in infrared but I already debunked this earlier in my post because eyewitness accounts proved that there was no exhaust or any type of propulsion system

You mean you can't see exhaust fumes in infrared.

And there were no physical eyewitnesses for this craft, so how can you claim they didn't see exhaust/propulsion? In the completely different cases where there was a visual of no exhaust/propulsion, the objects were likely just moving with the wind and misinterpreted due to parallax effect. That's explained in the video.



Honestly, I really think you should watch it again more carefully because you're making basic errors that are already explained there.



And stop trying to use "the US military" or "the US Navy" as your co-sign. You have no idea what the navy/military actually believe about UAPs, for the most part they've kept secret. You're quoting a few individuals and assuming they speak for the whole. For all you know, the military knows exactly what this shyt is and just isn't saying it for various reasons.

In my opinion it would bring clarity to truly understand what religion was already telling us. The biblical story of God creating angels that rebel and come down to earth and give humans knowledge that was forbidden to us is pretty much the same origin stories from ancient advanced civilization civilizations.
You’re missing the “everything we’ve been taught” part. We would have to change our whole approach to “science”. Years and years of research would go down the drain. Anything we think we know about physics would be wrong. Pretty much what we’ve been taught about math would be wrong. Etc

Maybe you’re right about the religion part.

If it's true, then it means that they have made a considerable error in not opening up the "crafts/tech" to a more widely scientific research team.. Obviously (if this was true) you wouldn't get the right amount of people who could help with extract the advanced tech that it would possess and advance our own society like it could

But there would be a bigger questions... Where did they come from? How did they get here? Why are they here?

Some of the talks center around inter-dimensional travel, or even that they have been somehow "here" on Earth for a long time. It would open up some discussions on the capability of travel NOT LIMITED to strictly "light speed".. I've heard some interviews/articles that stated a handful of the retrieved crafts that has been recovered have essentially been "parked in the driveway with the keys in the ignition".. Essentially saying they appeared to be left in certain places on purpose.

I would imagine that humans probably would feel more aligned now that we recognize that we aren't alone. More global "harmony" at least for a short time.
I wish I would find a ufo still running I would ghost ride the fk out that bytch :pachaha:

Stop by a few atms in bfe then roll out to Bali or some shyt :mjlol:

Lol at the idea the public isn't ready cause they have technology that could wipe us out like we didn't already know that anyway. Any species that is capable of interstellar/intergalactic travel like that would of course be able to fukk us up. It ain't Hollywood. Bruce Willis and Will Smith ain't walking through that door.

And they would have done so by now if they existed

You’re projecting human emotions / thought processes by saying this
You tried to throw a punch then hide your hands. :mjlol:


And lol at "Walter White" being an insult, wasn't White brilliant and accomplished in his field and then a 2nd one besides? The emotional a$$hole left because his girlfriend hurt him, not because his accomplishments were lacking, and still proved he could succeed in anything else he wanted to. Great "burn" there.
Says the guy who claims to be this and that but felt slighted like am emotional female at my general post and started name calling :heh:

Had that boy up late at night typing MLK speeches :russ:
