<nods> I could do much better though.
Think in terms of factions and groups rather than a collective.
Different ET come from different places with different intentions. Usually those on the left side of the landscape have an idea of what those on the right are doing. The ET I have met openly acknowledge they spy on one anothers activities as well as on various governments. So there are few secrets.
Within a faction there seems to be collective agreements. Though it differs from one faction to the next what that agreement is.
Usually the ET comprising various groups within a faction know what other factions are up to.
Collectively (as in multiple Factions) the ET sometimes agree to a set of ongoing or developing circumstances from what I have heard. On Earth people assume that one faction are always opposed to another. What I have seen is that when one opposing faction gets benefits from another, they usually don't do anything in such a circumstance.
Sometimes there is collusion between factions. There is also apparent collusion in the techniques being used by disimilar agendas abroad. You might see the same techniques in use in the USA in South Africa or Australia. What might change is the given level of the implementation. I believe there is some kind of standardisation and most Factions seem to abide by it.
Fore feigns ignorance of what lux just asked.
If you are experiencing ET contact scenarios and not a paranormal episode of habitation or possesion, then that trick is effective enough.
------------------------------
Consider, if you never read a critical idea at a critical moment, the rest of your future is defined by that moment never occuring. I can't read contactee books or paranormal books to a lesser extent without feeling an aversion to it. I am sure there are tons of points that I have missed by now that would otherwise have become clear by now.
Not being able to actively read books with my given mindset and knowledge they "gifted" me with, the obvious end result is that my eureka moments can be minimized. A missed series of oppertunities. I am aware of it but I cannot resist the aversion.
If I could readily pick up the books and read through them to the end, I would be quoting [^Yellow and Red flag event] authors, sources and making broad citations at a consistent clip. I could point out dozens and hundreds of circumstances and provide an explanation for them.
The ET I knew became uncomfortable when I mention it. Something we both know would lend itself to a great oppertunity to convince others of my claims and the knowledge.
Multitudes of references and experiences across the world would speak much louder than my wiritng form. Even louder than some psychic trick performances.
The ET can weave doubt into what someone witnessed as I previously mentioned. But it is harder to work on someone if there is tons of referential material. That mental imprint is probably much harder to smooth over. (TI/TM)
I have a vested interest in circumventing some of their restrictive tactics.
