Hey there, this is my theory on whats been happening in the last 10-20 years in this space. my theory: what we are witnessing, is a clash and negotiation between the old ruling class and the new kids on the block. I theorize, that around 2000-2010, people inside silicon valley ( maybe helped by vallée), realized, that the topic is legitimate and began to form a plan to get their fingers into the pot. at that time the american ruling class, a mix between old money, city of London, MIC owners, operators like the bushs and the national security state, were quite monolithic. they searched and found politicians, civil servants, military and intelligence officers,that were either likeminded or that were open to being bought. meanwhile their power and influence exploded with their wealth and technological control. i believe that whats been happening since 2017, but definitely since 2022, is a negotiation between those in the ruling class that control the MIC and silicon valley. as is visible in the struggle for the schumer-rounds act. one side was less powerful in the beginning, but the other side ( mic ) was stationary and open to attacks, like the dailymail article 2 years ago, where the CIA science and research directorates head, glen gaffney, was named as a central gatekeeper and coordinator of the system. both sides work with disinformation and controlled narratives. i think in many regards, both sides agree on many things. Especially the nature and the continuation of the national security state and oligarchy. the clash about eminent domain, the extent of disclosure, its framing and the power structure is probably still ongoing. i fear, this has a lot to do with those transhumanist dreams of the silicon valley elites. this is basically a powergrab of a new ruling class, if I am right. concerning disclosure as a process: i believe that we will get proof/disclosure, when significant numbers of the population have been inoculated with the concept of NHI and it has sipped into the collective consciousness as a given. this " 3 steps forward, 2 steps back " approach is to keep up the ambiguity until the end. i think shady behavior such as elizondos is intentional. submitted by /u/Yesyesyes1899 [link] [comments]
