Welp, I no longer believe in aliens after having seen this.

There is no way we are there only intelligent life in this universe. A lot of people don't realize how vast our cosmos is. We have billions and maybe trillions of galaxies which each have billions of stars.
Even if intelligent life is extremely rare, I believe it exists somewhere out there and we are not the only ones. Again, I'm referring to intelligent life.

Possibly, but unless proven there's aliens or even bacteria, we got nothing to go on.
It's like saying if there's a kid's sandbox with billions of sand particles there's got to be at last 1 grain of gold. Maybe. But not guaranteed.

Me personally, I strongly believe that there is a much higher and far more advanced civilization out there. What you say is true. There is just no way this vast space has all these galaxies and planets with nothing in them.
I guarantee you that we are either being laughed at or we are just another useless and pathetic race for a higher being. We are most likely very weak compared to them and they have no reason to deal with us whatsoever.
Or we are just a creation of another civilization that is just watching at how we interact with each other and how long we can last before we blow up our own planet, how powerful we can get and if we are even able to exist on our own without any outside aid.
Obviously, that another "civilization" could be considered God for the religious folk, but that's a different topic. I do not believe in magic, so to me they are physical entity that is overseeing from far above.
I think Mass Effect is the closest thing that I can see happening in reality at some point in the far far future. Sadly, none of us will be alive to see that day.

Timing is the real problem in all this, bigger than the distances involved, IMO.
The odds of at least one other civilisation at a similar level of development as we are, existing at the same time as us, with the same curiosity to ask the same questions and reach out to look for the signs of life elsewhere is just so mind bogglingly small that to all intents and purposes, we may as well be alone.

Analogy not good enough.
The average sandbox has 3 to 400 billion grains of sand.
The best scientific estimate is hundreds of sextillions to septillions of planets in the known universe.
All the beaches on planet earth have approximately 100 sextillion grains of sand combined.
You know for goddamn sure, even without checking, that there has to be at least 1 grain of gold in 100 sextillion grains of sand.

Is this a reference to the Epstein files or the X-Files

The way they explained the Dark Forest hypothesis in the Dark Forest book for me it is such a reasonable explanation of why the contact has been this "scarce".
The Dark Forest hypothesis's biggest weakness would be faster than light travel as having that would allow conflict deescalation to happen at reasonable times.

Oh yeah that whole Three Body Problem series of books?

The books are soooooo much more enjoyable than the Netflix series. They botched that badly and left it at one season.

Not at all surprised.

I will be honest, I need to start the third book in the trilogy as the end / status quo reached at the end of the second book is just perfect for the story, but maybe it will surprise me.

That is one of the craziest videos I've seen in a while. It's like everything knows, or most likely doesn't know, what to do, but it does it anyway. Insane.
Aleins being real would certainly explain the current state of the world, culture, politics, ram prices, AI, gender biology, limited run games, ubi-soft and so many other things.
Destroy humanity, play the long game and win I still without firing a single shot. Very clever. I still love the idea that the USA built their stealth fighter based on alien tech.

Why is he allowed to say that?
