    Turns out the Heritage Foundation and their allies being so blatant with their garbage political policy MIGHT be bad for winning elections

        Indeed, I do concur. The collective influence/strength of the technically savvy people in the world is a force to be reckoned with. Reminds me of the ratio of the number of individual Chinese state sponsored “hackers”, and Russian state sponsored “hackers”, compared to the ones employed by the United States military. Those persistent threat actors do be consistent, and highly, highly effective, if the Solarwinds hack is any indicator. It turns out that having the corporate world poach talent because of better pay and benefits, in addition to political policies that alienate the IT talent base that would be needed for “victory” (it would be a victory for no one, the quality of life on everyone on the planet would drop drastically) if full scale war were to break out, is not good for realpolitiking.

        For those unfamiliar with the term: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Realpolitik

        Geopolitics, ancient history, the paranormal/highly strange & esoteric knowledge have been the things that I would say have fascinated me most in life. Due to recent experiences in my life, I am A LOT more concerned with exopolitics now than I am with geopolitics :| and to those that do not believe in non-human, intelligent entities existing… well… I would recommend that you read some of the trip reports of people who have done high doses of DMT. I also personally grew up in a ludicrously haunted house, where even with my bipolar that I’ve mentioned in my comment history, my 5 older siblings and all of their friends had experiences occur and sightings happen at that house (it was an old farm house here in Utah, had a barn and well and shit.) Alternatively, from a more physical, militarily minded perspective, I will go ahead link a source on UFOs back in the cold war flying up to American nuclear weapons silos, being detected on radar, physically seen by multiple military personnel at the bases, tampereing with nuclear warhead launch sequences, then flying away.

        Here is the source for that: https://www.history.com/news/ufos-near-nuclear-facilities-uss-roosevelt-rendlesham
