Terminolgy related to aliens in context of earth and fantasies that make sense only in context of aliens.
By no means I claim that I figured out what aliens are ultimately up to. I also can't say I am very transparent.
In regards of alien and human interaction my current most likely view is that they don't manipulate people but they use the potential. Very similar things are written in Quran. Not that I am depending on Quran nor I think it is anything beyond inspirational with current understanding but it really seems like aliens are not like trying to hide anything at all. It is obviously pretty clear they don't necessarily value human life. Some people may even speculate they don't even shy away from harming people in mass as part of some fantasies. I think this likely wrong. Likely they just don't care mostly. But very weak likely.
