It’s almost there. Y axis-How big of a deal aliens are to you X axis-How powerless you feel in your day to day

Did you ever stop and think that this relationship we have with world shattering news is very much on purpose? Like the royal They literally have so much control over us that we could be told something like, “the Space Pope is going to abduct all of Wisconsin. That gives you a day off of work… If you live in Wisconsin. The rest of you…” And that literally goes unsaid, like, everyone will just go to work and keep producin’ no matter what unless it directly affects them, even without being explicitly told to. We are so effectively controlled that the threat of rent/tax/subscriptions is enough to keep us in line like a hypothetical gun is constantly in our face. That can’t be an accident.

Someone who is most powerless is least interested in aliens?
