This is a ridiculous way of looking at things. Galileo was persecuted by The Church not other scientists who supported him.

Fermi's paradox isn't what you've stated.

Listen to the scientists. Not the politicians. Not the military.

And when we had the evidence we changed our minds. Just like it should be.

So the question should be why are so many people believing in aliens when there is so little evidence for them?

Breaking Special Relativity is not some 15th century "oh, there's some lovely dirt down here" impressionable pleb. We have machines that can confirm SR to within ridiculous level.

What do you want people to do.

I see lot of "close minded" people looking at the evidence and concluding that it's not enough evidence to conclude aliens are visiting us.

It looks like these UAPs are everywhere but the evidence is so low level that I wouldn't even conclude they aren't just planes or ducks instead.

The people that believe that these UAP seem to think there is both a Fermi paradox and reverse Fermi Paradox at the same time.

A lot of things would be demonstratively broken if Special Relativity is wrong.

I want a whole group of scientists to investigate the evidence.

I don't trust the military or Congress since they're happy to spend money on ESP or telekinesis studies and still not be able to reach a conclusion.

Military pilots have mistaken Venus as a UAF.

I can't just trust an eyewitness account of something fishy as evidence for exterrestrial beings visiting us with faster than light speed vehicles.

If scientists speak out they then get labelled as political. It's a lose-lose situation that scientists face.

Misinformation is like junk food. It triggers people's endorphins while scientific thinking is vegetables and fruits. It can never win.

Curiosity and not Smart: down the conspiracy rabbit hole you can go

Smart and not curious: who knows? psychopath?

Both: fun person to talk to at a party

I presume that it would more feasible to do a dipole antenna based radio telescope like LOFAR to take advantage of the radio silence.

My favourite how different the "home budget" and a national economy works is if you want to save some money for a trip you just stop spending a bit and keep the extra money in a savings account until needed. If an economy did that then the economy will contract, reducing peoples spending power and income.

It's like you're saving for you holidays and your hourly rate goes down because of it.
