During the past few weeks there have been multiple articles on these subs speculating about “what could be so shocking” that it’s preventing insiders from disclosing the truth about NHIs and UFOs. I’ve recently posted some suggestions in comments on a couple of those discussions, but since the same basic question is regularly being asked, it may be helpful if I wrote a more detailed article with expanded responses. Hopefully this will be a constructive addition to the ongoing conversation.
If you take Lue Elizondo and David Grusch at their word – more from Grusch here – apparently it is a combination of the following:
Our galaxy is ruled by a hierarchy of apex predators.
Humans are recognised as fellow predators, but we’re much lower down this hierarchy than we realise.
The apex predators higher than us in the galactic hierarchy are more intelligent, far more technologically advanced and much older than humans.
They may even be so powerful that they dominate multiple galaxies, not just the Milky Way.
The scale of the difference in power and capabilities between these NHIs and humans would be a huge shock to our notions of our place in the universe. (Elizondo has said that this is the biggest issue that would cause a “sobering/sombre” reaction).
None of the other species in the hierarchy are remotely human, either physically or psychologically. The psychological gulf in particular is causing problems for insiders, because of the difficulties it creates in accurately assessing the NHIs’ motives & intentions towards us.
Earth’s governments don’t currently have countermeasures to sufficiently protect the civilian human populace from abductions or any other kind of potentially malevolent targeting of humans.
UAP behaviour towards our military installations, naval ships and fighter jets correlates with adversarial reconnaissance activities probing Earth’s defences and testing for weaknesses.
Those seem to be the main issues.
It’s possible to extrapolate this. Some examples:
1. Earth’s position in a galactic superpower: I wrote a “deep dive” article last summer in an attempt to connect the dots, including a TL/DR summary at the start – with the potential explanation being that we’re an isolated, backward species on a very minor planet within the territory of a huge superpower ruled by extremely intelligent apex predators.
2. Characteristics of the dominant NHIs: If they have occupied that position of supremacy for millions, tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of years because they’ve been able to out-smart and out-fight everyone else in this galaxy and potentially in multiple galaxies, consider the psychological and behavioural traits of NHI predators who have successfully achieved that level of dominance over that size of territory for that length of time.
3. Mankind’s low status in the hierarchy: Since we haven’t been wiped out yet, they aren’t necessarily genocidal towards humans, although this may change if we ever try to do anything that potentially threatens their dominance and/or territorial integrity. In the meantime, the NHIs at the higher levels of the hierarchy may not care much about us because they regard us as comparatively inconsequential and very far beneath them (this also raises questions about whether they simply view us with indifference or actually domineering hostility, or even an utterly alien mindset that is incomprehensible to humans). But discovering the truth about our low status within the superpower, our comparative lack of autonomy, and the power difference between humans and the rulers would be a shock. Especially if the galactic hierarchy is rigid and strictly enforced. And it can be very difficult to defend yourself against a more powerful adversary who can completely violate your physical and psychological boundaries at will.
4. NHIs reinforcing the hierarchy: The reason the NHIs don’t make open contact to “admit humans into the galactic club” is not necessarily because of mankind’s various faults or our perceived “lack of readiness”. It could be due to much more selfish reasons: The NHIs above us in the galactic hierarchy (especially those at the very top) want to preserve their longstanding position of dominance and supremacy; so, they have no interest in helping humans “improve our position” in the hierarchy, and they may react very badly to any future attempts by us to unilaterally do so. They may even have been actively undermining human society and geopolitics on Earth in order to sabotage or delay any genuine progress and keep us permanently weaker than them; “divide and rule” is a very old strategy of subjugation and control.
5. Disclosure and threats: These NHIs may be actively preventing full public Disclosure by making threats against insiders/their families/their governments/their countries/Earth as a whole. An ignorant human populace is easier to manipulate and “keep in their place”. It also prevents us from contacting and forming alliances with other species in the galaxy who may occupy a similar low status in the hierarchy and object to the way they’re being treated (assuming that it’s even possible for us to overcome the psychological gulf and the resulting barriers to effective communication); another example of “divide and rule”.
6. Targeting of global infrastructure: There have been reports of NHI/UAP interference with Earth’s nuclear missiles, including the weapons systems being shut down. If NHIs really have been probing our military defences in order to test for weaknesses that they could potentially attack, they may also have been targeting other global infrastructure systems critical to modern human civilisation, such as our power grids, communication networks, and so on. It is worth investigating unexplained major incidents that have not been definitively attributed to foreign state actors or other hostile human sources.
7. Deep-rooted human reactions to carnivorous higher predators: It’s possible that we would instinctively find the NHIs’ physical appearance to be horrific and/or terrifying, with the effect of automatically triggering an extreme and uncontrollable “fight/flight/freeze” response due to being in the presence of a “carnivorous higher predator”. This could be another plausible explanation for the NHIs not revealing themselves and their alleged use of human hybrids, “grey pilots” etc as intermediaries instead.
8. Cloaked UAPs and NHIs: Finding out that our skies are full of cloaked UAPs and our streets and homes (day and night) include cloaked NHIs freely wandering around would also terrify many people.
9. NHIs disguised as humans: Elizondo has suggested that there are NHIs present on Earth disguised as humans. If this is true and it became public knowledge, it could trigger paranoia on a huge scale worldwide. It also raises questions about the specific activities of such disguised NHIs (eg. Geopolitical interference, scientific/anthropological curiosity, intelligence-gathering, refugees or fugitives).
10. Genetics: If NHIs did modify our prehistoric DNA, we may not be the first hominid species on Earth that they did this to. In fact, hominids may not be the only species from Earth that they did this to, especially if it involved one-way abductions in the distant past (ie. the animals and their “genetically uplifted” descendants were permanently taken off-world).
11. “Biologics”: Grusch has said the “biologics” that have allegedly been recovered come with some metaphorical “baggage”. Possible explanation: The DNA of these pilots may be genetically-engineered and partially human, or based on another still-living or long-extinct species from Earth.
Confirmation that our galaxy is actually ruled by extremely powerful and technologically advanced NHIs would be startling for many people (although not necessarily such a surprise for those of us who are sci-fi fans), but that type of galactic geopolitical scenario does not automatically have disturbing implications for humans. However, multiple DoD and government insiders across the political spectrum – including public figures advocating for disclosure – have made statements indicating that there is indeed something very problematic about the situation. As this article suggests, perhaps it involves the way that spacefaring NHI species regard humans and, correspondingly, the way that they would behave towards us if full disclosure and open contact happened.
