Quote from the latest Spotlight titled "The History of the Galaxy - Volume 1":

[9:50] "The ETs that we work with – we call them the good ETs – they want everyone to know that they want to meet with people."

Okay, I'm fine with that.

But we have to clarify what "meet" means:

To me, a meeting is when people gather in person. Physically. It's not an invisible guy sitting in a visible chair.

Why is that important?

Because when we meet inside my head, or in dreams, I can't prove to others that you are real in a physical sense.

Being real physically – being touchable – proves something that is important to me: When you are physically there, you are not only able to exert physical power that could be necessary to protect me from bad people who want to harm me physically. It also proves that you are willing to do so.

And that's what I need.

I don't need non-physical people in my life, because they can't be real friends.

@David Lyon:

"Says the guy typing on his laptop every day to his friends on the Farsight forum."

I don't have friends on this forum, and I don't think that writing here is a meeting.

"then you wouldn't be typing on the computer with your questions and comments about how the world should be."

Why not? This forum is a physical thing. It's not happening inside my head.

"As if the 'mentalists' (Courtney's term) somehow have some way of slipping through a crowd without being noticed to get to a door, and slip away from some impending danger that might catch a large group."

If so-called mentalists face physical danger or violence, the only ability to slip away from that danger would be to manipulate the one who is dangerous to be unsuccessful. Those are not the droids you are looking for. Farsight does not have that ability, and it's not the reason why I'm writing on this forum.

"The 'physical only' friends that you have that you meet at the cafe or come to your room lack those abilities."

Actually, I don't know anybody who has that ability.

"Yet it isn't enough. Because you live in a busy city and there are already many physical people that can provide exactly that."

You obviously know nothing about me. I don't live in a city. But you are right, the people around me can't provide physical protection. They fear the state, and the police. They are not ready to do what needs to be done to leave slavery. The same is true for the people I encounter on the internet.

"So that means you will be coming back tomorow?"

Yes, because as I already said, I'm not here to make friends.

"to debate using cables-of-light to connect to people you cannot physically touch?"

No.

"or is it that you now have developed your own sense of connectedness where you feel those people on the other side of the world as if they were really there, sitting on that spare chair?"

No.

I have a good reason to write on this forum. Of course you don't understand it, because understanding it requires empathy.
