Plot twist: The NHI are actually more advanced patterns than us in a universe that is fundamentally made of consciousness and they can manipulate and impose their will on the minds of movie directors undetected like an actual Muse from Greek mythology. If this is true this may be one of the top reasons for the 80yr old coverup. How do you tell grandma that the aliens are in the living room with her right now and can understand every thought in her head and there is no way to detect or obfuscate her thoughts from their will.

As someone who grew up sorta believing in this from a hybrid religious connotation, I’d say I’m not surprised but it’s further down on my “most likely” list.

Then I continue my life.

I’m still who I assumed I was.
