Your words show the opposite. And it's a pity, because your first part, up to Tesla, was really relevant. I don't understand that, from a lucid observation, one can arrive at false and extravagant conclusions without any objective facts showing cause and effect relationships, typically conspiracy theories.
You needn't take my opinion on board! Just observe that other informed individuals have arrived at that conclusion for good reasons .. It may not be as widespread a thing as is said by some but certainly, at least some influential inventors have been silenced or worse throughout history, having posed a direct threat to the "big monkey" in charge (Need I elaborate?)
I know it doesn't directly relate, but just for example, look at what they did to Edward Snowden .. and that's nothing really; compared with the implications (for energy companies and those who own them - fundamental to everything in modern life) of people having their own reliable, independent power source providing multiple kw's .. I have seen easily over 100 attempts to go public with these things (stories, news reports mostly, haven't been at this many years yet)
I don't doubt there's been more, and not even ONE of them was legit?? And if it was, why didn't it become known and commercialized, or at least available for replication?
I didn't add that point just for effect - to me, it's probably the most believable reason we are yet to irrigate the deserts and expand our influence to outer space - We are being farmed, for lack of a better word, by the uber wealthy and unless people are able to take their power back - literally or metaphorically - things will only continue to get worse in terms of rights, freedom, etc, globally.
I don't mind if people think I'm crazy for saying that! A certain few will read this and agree with me, having also made those connections. It only seems logical to me at this point.. Uncomfortable to think about it but you can't deny that it's a possibility worth considering, and if it's true then it's probably all that's preventing OUR progress.
The B. Franklin quote comes to mind -
"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety"
That's all people seem to want to do, around where I live anyway.. as if by design.
Over unity is not just a curiosity for me, it's become a serious fascination.. The implications are just too vast to fully comprehend. What brings me to such conclusions, that such nefarious people are at work is partly the ignorance and lack of interest in all this.. Listen to Eric Dollard talk about it.. or Tom Bearden .. Bedini himself.. Lindemann .. countless others that I have listened to so far. They all give conclusions that are eerily similar and most if not all of these historic people claim to have been attacked / had labs destroyed, Christ - there's hundreds of hours of interviews with these people.. It's pretty damning stuff. I'm not saying it for the sake of it.. Would appreciate a good explanation otherwise, because with electrical physics having been truncated some 120 years ago, we are working with a incomplete model, and all cards are on the table as I see it.
Coming from England where (IMO) our political system has been sabotaged and our economy / country is seemingly sinking by the decisions of the Ultra wealthy, with a looming energy crisis that could be avoided even by traditional means were our best interests in mind - personally, I trust the words of these long dead inventors infinitely more than the known lies which so effortlessly spew from their mouths, day in, day out.
I hope you see sense in what I'm saying.. I consider myself a rational person, but dealing with that thought process is pretty taxing, when no one else seems to see the point that I am trying to make.
