Have done with it! Show yourselves!
by Philip Hall
Have done with it! Show yourselves!You are hiding something. You are behaving in a way that we find very suspicious; like a leopard or a human predator waiting in the shadows, kidnapping people. You moon people on lonely highways like annoying teenagers. Everyone asks: what are your intentions? You aliens are waiting for something. What are you waiting for?
You know, and we know, that if your intentions were clearer, and if we knew who you were and what you wanted, then we could formulate an appropriate response. The fact that you do not stump up and tell us what you want is revealing; Theory of mind must be an important issue in the cosmos and that is probably why you skulk and hide your hand. You do not show your cards. How churlish!
When you do show yourselves, it is not really your best side, is it? In 2017, the military in the USA, like the military of Mexico before it, declared that the Unidentified Anomalous Phenomenon was real.
What did you do to help them draw this conclusion? Well, on many sensors you were seen to buzz and mock the greatest military power on Earth. Not only that, but the greatest projection of military power: the USS Nimitz with support vessels on manoeuvres. US aircraft carriers are the heart of the seven US fleets and each fleet stationed around the world has the power to knock out a country. Well, depending on the size of the country. It would take both the 5th and 6th fleets and an army to knock out Iran.
You showed yourself to the Nimitz; there was a large unidentified craft hiding underwater. There were objects moving at 14,000 miles an hour, accelerating from a standing start. One of these objects demonstrated that it could read all the telemetry of the fighter craft it mocked by flying to the fighter craft’s rendezvous point. There were objects that descended down from space in a few seconds and went trans-medium, directly into the ocean, after which they travelled through the water at unreasonably high speeds. Not only did you show yourselves, but you were showing off. You were being arrogant and threatening and this was your message:
‘We know your every move. Our technology is superior.’
The correct description for your behaviour is passive aggression. Every time there is an encounter like this, it is usually hidden and not talked about by the military. In reality, you are a serious threat. You reveal yourselves. You show that you can be arrogant and threatening. You imagine that your technology supercedes ours by far, and that it will do so for the foreseeable future. Is this a sign of nervousness on your part? You believe you know and understand us, while we cannot know and understand you. You are mistaken.
After all, on our Earth three hundred years ago – the blink of an eye – humans were trotting around on horses and sitting in horse-drawn carriages. The Montgolfier Brothers had just come up with their balloons. Now look at us. We are all connected. We have 3d printing (probably inspired by ideas recovered from one of your crashed craft). The Internet of things is about to start up. We have virtual reality and we even have an idea of how you do what you do with your craft. Miguel Alcubierre worked it out. He is a physicist in Mexico City. There are lasers and computers and nano-technology. Medical technology has advanced. All sorts of things. All this in 300 years.
And we have great art. Let us face it, your craft look like Christmas ornaments; they flash red, blue, green and so on, in lurid primary colours. The people who say they have been inside your vehicles describe the interiors as grey and featureless. You really do have a very poor aesthetic sensibility.
We both know, in contrast, that the richness of human culture is endless. But you, what do you have? Featureless grey machines that sometimes light up like something cheap bought for Christmas. Not very impressive, I am afraid. Perhaps you follow the philosophy of Alfred Loos and regard all decoration as a perversion.
Speaking of perversion. We notice that you kidnap people and carry out rather odd gynecological experiments on them. You tag and release people as if they were migrating swans or badgers. Who the hell do you think you are?
Who the hell do you think you are?
Not only that, but, according to reliable and unreliable reports, you artificially inseminate people, then remove the foetus before term and raise humans in your alien society. With whose permission. With whose consent?
John Mack, the Harvard psychologist, investigated many of these cases. He was a thoughtful and creditable man. He believed his witnesses. Ask Whitley Strieber if he is happy the way he and his family have been treated by you. You clearly have a different moral code to us. Do you even have a system of laws?
We raise cattle to eat them. It is true, and that is awful. But what do you do? You mutilate cattle. You do all sorts of vile things to them; the kind of things a serial killer might do. And you hang around schools. The Ariel event is one of the most celebrated cases of alien visitation. It happened in Zimbabwe and it is hard not to believe the children. But there was a similar case in Australia. What do you want with our kids? They are impressionable. Leave them alone. Come and talk to us.
The aliens looked at one of the children and sent her a telepathic message: ‘There is something wrong with the air. The trees will die. Something is going to happen.’ You sent them messages about eco-destruction. This was in the 90s. Why didn’t you go to the United Nations instead of bothering children in some remote corner of Africa? Idiots!
There are always sightings of your craft around volcanos. I wrote an article about seeing you in 2008 in the Guardian. I assume you read it, if you are so advanced. Are you more advanced than the Chinese government spying operation on its own people? One would expect so.
I saw your craft in 2001 in Tlaxcala and one of the same craft was seen looking inside the Volcano Popocatepetl. What? Is there going to be an extinction event related to volcanos? Do you know something we do not? Tell us. Stop pissing about and being so gnomic and skittish.
Apparently, you hide in different forms. You pretend to be little green men. You pretend to be the Virgin Mary, the mother. You pretend to be Jehovah. Landing and impressing a poor Jewish peasant with your rather loud ‘Biblical’ technology.
Jaques Valle, who has investigated you, calls you a trickster. He says you have been here a long time and pretend to be many different things. In a way, this is comforting. It means that humanity hasn’t been hallucinating for quite as much of its history as we think it has. I was watching a talk by Hilary Mantel where she described seeing a squat, malignant, little troll when she was seven, and, as a result, she was unable to discount that there might be more to the reality we know than a totally rational person might assume.
If you are a part of reality, and we must now accept that you are, then it is totally irrational to ignore your existence. Fatima, according to Jaques Valle, was probably a visit by you where you pretended to be the Mother of God. I mean, that’s a bit low, isn’t it? Messing with people’s religion. You certainly messed with the lives of the three girls who first saw you. Again, you have such a poor moral compass. What was it they saw? A solar disc. And your predictions of disaster given to the select few over many years have very often proved to be completely wrong and misleading. So, what’s your game?
But now we move on to other matters. So, we are talking about your presence. How many of you are there? When did you arrive? Were you here before us? Were you here long before us?
There was a remote viewing carried out by Joseph McMoneagle where he saw you coming here from Mars, giant figures, and when you came, Earth was a wild, overgrown and wet place. You landed in the jungle somewhere. I am guessing, in what is now Mexico. You set up shop. Thrived? Became smaller, adapted. You might not even be from another star system, you might just be Martians. And that is the thing. We can speculate till the cows come home – or they do not, because you have dissected them with lasers so sharp that they cut between cell walls.
Steven Greer, a man whom I despise and admire in equal measure, thinks that you have consciousness technology. That you not only pick up on electronic broadcasts, but that you can detect and interpret brain activity. That would make sense. We are beginning to understand that such a thing can exist. Our brain scans don’t tell us all that much at the moment, but they are a big step forward from electro-shock therapy and trepanning. With our expert systems (AI) we might even be able to correlate thought and brain activity better. Not understand it, you know, just correlate it. Your systems have probably already gamed out our consciousness.
But your technology is not so far ahead of us that it seems like magic. We are aware it is technology. In the past, though, you pranced about pretending to be gods, fairy queens and trolls, leprechauns and monsters. You sure had us fooled. What was the title of the Strugatsky brother book? ‘It’s Hard to be a God.’ Most of us probably wouldn’t have understood rational explanations a few hundred years ago.
My own suspicion is this is that you started out as a piece of still-functioning, kinetic AI which landed on Earth tens of thousands of years ago. It might be that you came from somewhere or other. Let’s say Tau Ceti, or Zeta Reticuli. Somewhere, anyway. Then it began to reconstitute. It reconstituted you. Like those Sea-monkeys advertised in the back of American comics.
Ask Avi Loeb, the top Harvard astrophysicist, who concluded that Oumuamua was an alien artifact. He is in charge of Project Breakthrough Starshot, where we will send very small objects by lasers to Proxima Centuri in a 20 year time frame. That is the plan. Or it was the plan. Loeb speculates that the best way to travel to another planet would be to send the genetic make-up of people to another star, a small self-replicating craft and then reconstitute the technology and people on the new planet with the help of expert systems. I think that is what you did.
Back then, you were unimaginably far in advance of us. Not anymore. Avi Loeb is also in charge of The Galileo Project, where they will scan our skies for your UAPs. Oddly enough, your technology isn’t cloaking you as well as it used to. Or is this intentional?
Your living beings are genetic artifacts. You have tailored your reconstituted culture to exist on this planet, as far as you are able to tailor it. We are perfectly adapted, we emerged out of Earth, so to speak. You did not. You are an exotic implant.
But let us be clear. Personally speaking, I have nothing against the idea of alien life forms coming to Earth and blending in with us. It is just natural. It is what sentient beings do on earth and it probably works that way in the cosmos, too. You stick your Jamestown here, your Sydney Harbour and then take it from there. Clearly, you have decided not to colonise us or destroy us. That is jolly good of you. So, you do have a more pleasant agenda when it comes to humanity and earth than the ruling class of Renaissance Europe had for the so called ‘New World’. Thanks for that. Jolly dee!
Where do you live? That is easy to guess. In your very large craft. Under the sea. On the moon and planets. Underground. Some of you may even be among us. I doubt the last surmise. I’m sure we would identify you as soon as talk to you. Almost anyone would. People are very perceptive, you know.
I am rambling now, but there is a lot to say. Let’s imagine that you did change our genetic structure in early experiments and that we, as we are now, are partly the result of your breeding experiments and plans. Well, in a way, that would make you the evil scientists and us your Frankenstein creations. But, it would also give you a sort of paternity. You like to be called ‘Father’ and ‘Mother’, don’t you? Perhaps, knowing as you do that we are the result of your machinations, you think we owe you some kind of allegiance. I beg to differ. We owe you nothing.
Stop skulking! Come out of the shadows and put your cards on the table.
The time has come for you to come clean and tell us about your (and our) history and tell us what you intend and tell us how you see us moving forwards. Let us work out a modus vivendi. Yes, I know, we have an out-of-control corporate warmongering capitalism ravaging this planet, but that does not make us stupid. If you have a few disruptive technologies to share with us, then that would be a very nice goodwill gesture. Just don’t do everything through the US, Chinese and Russian and Indian military. Those people act on behalf of governments controlled by the ruling class of the earth. They do not have humanity’s best interests at heart.
Contact the masses of the people. All I can say is that if you allow this whole contact thing to be released in dribs and drabs by US military jocks, intelligence wide boys, and irritating pricks like Jeremy Corbell, then not only are your aesthetics abysmal, but, it could be concluded, so are your politics and overall understanding of human society.
I trust that this is not the case.
