I read only sci-fi for the first 25 years of my life because I loved imagining how awesome the future would be. I just had to wait for it.
Fast-forward and I gave up reading it entirely longer ago than I can remember. I realized it had all become dystopian garbage, with an inordinate amount of virtue signalling mixed in.
I like sci-fi a lot too and this future is definately weird and I don't like much of it.
Have you read C. S. Lewis' space trilogy? It's all on the website here if you haven't.
I used to be a huge reader, more than anyone I ever knew, but it all fell by the wayside. I can't tell you the title of the last book I finished nor how long ago it was.
As you've seen, the material I fell into through no plan whatsoever is stranger than any fiction I ever read. And I've hardly broached in writing any of the really out there stuff having to do with human consciousness and the Anunnaki.
Neither of those subjects, ultimately, is separate from the Salem Witches. You can see how long it's taking and, even with the convenience to point to unchallenged mainstream evidence, you can see just how hard a sell it is. Writing up the other stuff, well... it doesn't even bear thinking about. The only motivation is a deep (and apparently masochistic) inner compulsion.
But speaking of sci-fi and the Anunnaki, I can look back in retrospect and see that a work like Childhood's End (by Arthur C. Clarke, haha) is a dim and distorted version of a few elements of the Anunnaki story. With that hindsight and all the context I've gained, I would now consider it to be intentional.
But, you know, we're a helluva long way from that writeup... lol
