If Col Macgregor is correct, then I think we have a pretty good idea why PROBABILITY ZERO was not suppressed in any manner, but has been allowed to present its case without much in the way of interference, or even criticism:
BREAKING: Bank of England told to prepare for a market crash if the United States announces Alien Life. Helen McCaw who served as a senior analyst in financial security at the UK’s central bank sounded the alarm. She has now written to Andrew Bailey, the Bank’s governor, urging him to organize contingencies for the possibility that the White House may confirm we are not alone in the universe.
This would explain a lot of anomalies about all the high weirdness that has surrounded geopolitics over the last 2-3 years, from the fake Bidens and Trumps to the bizarre imperial expansionism of the fake Trump administration.
The thing is, the discovery of alien-human interaction has been pretty close to inevitable ever since the onset of full genome mapping. Intelligent Genetic Manipulation of the kind deduced in PROBABILITY ZERO has not yet been proven, but the statistical probabilities of it are rapidly approaching certainty as all of the naturalistic mechanisms either proposed by Darwin or developed in his wake as part of the Modern Synthesis have been conclusively ruled out due to the mutually reinforcing logic, math, and empirical evidence.
Once genetic scientists are able to look closely enough at anomalies such as the split chromosome and other indicators of genetic engineering that we now know to have almost certainly taken place at some point in the past, they’re going to discover some high-tech version of our existing CRISPR technology.
And they may already be able to identify it; if I have learned one thing from my forays into the biological sciences, it is that scientists are the very last people who are going to discover very big things outside their little boxes, because they are the very definition of people who can’t see the forest for the bark on one specific tree. We can’t reasonably assume that they don’t have the technology to identify it because they’ve literally never even considered looking for it, much less engaged in a systematic and methodical search for the signs of it.
At least, not as far as we’ve been informed, anyhow. Either way, we’re much closer to the empirical confirmation of IGM than the mathematicians of Wistar were to the empirical confirmation of the impossibility of evolution by natural selection and neutral drift in 1966.
And remember, it’s not going to be as simple as aliens = demons or not. There are a whole range of various possibilities and combinations, so if you’re going to seriously contemplate these sorts of things, you absolutely need to set both your dogmatic assumptions and your binary thinking aside.
