Nobody's ALL Bad! (Okay, that's bullshit. 😏 Just read)
Saying Nice-ish Things About Dead Senators
This is going to seem out of character and weird, but I'm deferring to the old cliche’ we all heard growing up, about "If you can't say something nice about someone, blah-blah-blah..."
I have one...and just one...nice-ish thing to say about dead former senate majority leader, Harry Reid.
Disclaimer...everything else about him was awful, so don't start with me. 🤪
Knowledge is power. I think we all can agree that the more information that you have about something, the better equipped you are to address and deal with that thing. Like, you know Joe Biden likes to smell little kids, so you keep your kids away from him. Or, you know that Adam Schiff is a pathetic, lying hoaxmonkey, so you don't really pay any attention when he speaks.
As obscure and 'unimportant' as this may seem on the face of it, Harry Reid was probably the highest level government official ever, who was a genuine proponent for serious research into UFO phenomena.
I'm not talking about drunken frat boys who saw some weather balloons and pissed themselves, or Joe Dumbwit who claims he got taken away on a flying saucer, had things jammed in his ass and was then safely returned to Earth afterwards, on some awful reality TV show.
Reid was a strong and vocal backer of legitimate UFO research, and was a driving force behind the recent government report on "what we know" about UFO's...which was mostly bullshit, a fact that Reid himself acknowledged. But also was a 'start', and gave that line of research some amount of much-needed validity to move further on with.
Said Reid, "I believe it’s just as if we were starting airplanes. Airplanes were not understood very quickly. There’s so much to learn. Technologically, everything today is happening quickly. UFOs fascinate people who are pilots, physicists, because they can’t understand how these UFOS have no vapor trail, no lights on them, yet they can go so fast, so quickly. If it was under the technology we have today it would kill the pilots. We’re at the infancy of it.”
I personally disagree with what I wrote earlier, about it being "unimportant". It's hugely important as we stand on the precipice of mankind beginning to venture off into space. Just like it was important for early explorers to know and understand as much as possible about how and why some things float and some do not, well before setting off to sea in ships to find “new worlds”. Or understanding what sort of sorcery kept birds aloft, before we took wing ourselves and conquered flight.
Plus, that stuff is just freakin' fascinating AF to me. I absolutely want UFO's to be real, and I want to know everything about them. Even if aliens might come to Earth and eat us all, I still want to know. Because there is little in life more satisfying than the revelation of significant unknowns such as that, as being real.
So thank you for your efforts on that front, Mr. Reid. You can pretty much go faack off twice on everything else you did in your public life and in the senate. You might be finding out just how wrong you were on a lot of things now, as you find out exactly where you’ll be spending the rest of eternity.
But I do appreciate your work toward discovery and dissemination on this.
We've got to wonder why they haven't officially interacted with us yet.
1.Because they're time traveling humans from the future and they can't interfere too much ala The Butterfly Effect.
2. Because they're just as scared of and creeped out by us as we would be of them.
3. Because they're just not that into us.
And I did not know that about old Harry either.
I only remember him for getting the CRAP kicked out of him by his brother ( that is what I believe)
