That would seem to be the case.
If these 'objects' are real, as it appears they are (choose your own version of reality here) then it would follow that they represent the most important discovery we have ever made. I.e that we are not the only sentient beings around. Surely that comes under the heading of 'existential threat'.
But no one seems to have been bothered over the last half century.
One has to wonder why.
The only other game would be that certain powers know what is going on.
Maybe that is more worrying than them not knowing.
Well, the Devil's in the details. As JB Alexander has put it many times there is no Department of Good Ideas. Everybody's got a budget and accountability, even the deep dark ones. This huge organization is made up of many many different parts that don't all get along or talk with one another, that may compete with one another over resources and are managed by fallible human beings with opinions and biases. These people are all doing their thing - whatever their mandate is.
Then throw in an unknown variable. If a tic-tac was and overt and direct threat then 'the military' in whatever form that might be would know just what to do. Rules of Engagement - tick off the right boxes and then rock & roll. Not saying their response would be effective, but it would be understandable. But failing that, if they continue to just weave and bob and maybe have a close fly by occasionally why be the one to draw attention to yourself, to spend and possibly risk those resources? That could mean anything from losing your position, losing your budget or maybe your people and hardware because you have enough common sense to realize taking potshots at one of
those goddamned things is a bad idea. Failing a clear response to a clear threat they'll just activate the Somebody Else's Problem Field and go back to what they were doing.
So if you can sort of ignore it while you go about your business, and then maybe even find the topic useful to your military sneakery and the other tasks you are responsible for, then I can see how we got here. I don't necessarily believe all the reports we've read going back decades. Statistically many if not most of them probably have mundane explanations so I can't say from them what 'threat level' they may have represented. I still think that maskirovka is at work here and probably always will be. Again, this topic can be a useful tool. But at a basic level, taking the UAPTF seriously, standardized reports free of stigma collected in an organized fashion and discussed through one office not several sounds like a good idea. And then I start raving about the benefits of a real database.
Even with all that said, I dunno. Hard to be be suspicious and we haven't seen any behavior that would alleviate any of it.
