Messianism, Generation Z and Disclosure
Capitol Disclosure By Stephen Bassett
October 2025
Why are humans the only animals on the planet prone to waiting centuries for the savior, the chosen one, the redeemer who will come one day to fix things?
The obvious answer is the human animal is smarter than all others - with the possible exception of the octopus. That’s only half of the answer.
The other half is humans suffer. Oh, how we suffer! The memory, the imagination, the spectrum of needs and emotions, not to mention the ingenious ways we inflict suffering on each other – all are the products of that smarter brain. Then there is the lifespan that keeps getting longer. Things are not working out for you? Your world is falling apart? Plan on dealing with that for five or six decades.
All that suffering leads to “hope.” Oh, how we hope. No animal hopes like humans. If orangutans or dolphins hope, not likely, but if they do, gawd bless ’em. Maybe things will get better. But how? Or more importantly, by who?
The Zoroastrians had Saoshyant, the Mesopotamians Gilgamesh, the Aztecs Quetzalcoatl. Many others saviors have been lost to cultural history. Of course, the modern world is most familiar with the “messiah” that had various versions throughout Judaic history. The impact of one messiah in particular is still a work in progress, and a new one has been added to the pantheon of world fixers.
But before addressing that, let’s consider Generation Z.
A generation on the brink
Presently the world is ruled by Boomers, managed by Generation X, conducted by Millennials and stands on the neck of Generation Z. By the way, when thinking about the generations, don’t confine yourself to one country – usually your country – consider the world.
Born between 1997 and 2012, Gen Z’ers will soon be the largest generation on the planet—more than two billion strong. Commentators celebrate the positive attributes of those in wealthy nations such as creativity, diversity, and digital fluency.
Little is said about the large majority living in not so wealthy nations. Regardless, all of them have one thing in common. They are screwed.
If you haven’t already heard, you will soon be learning about “Gen Z revolts.” They are taking place in Africa, Asia, South America, Europe, and are likely coming soon to a continent near you. They are ousting rulers and burning down government buildings.
They are not happy. Why, you ask? The numbers don’t add up. The realistic, propaganda-free projections for their future are beyond bleak, they are existential.
Putting aside the charming memes swapping amongst Gen Z’ers in affluent suburbs, the vast majority see a future getting dark before turning completely black.
For a robust analysis of why that is, do your own research. It’s a big topic and this is a short essay, but with enough space to move on to the third item.
A new messiah has landed
There is a new messiah in town, and this one is known worldwide by billions.
The “technologically advanced, non-human presence” we have heard so much about for now on 80 years has been increasingly viewed as the last, great hope for humanity. Given the opportunity, these beings will reset the world’s Wi-Fi modem and save us from ourselves.
Assuming you care (or don’t), here is what I think about that. All previous messiahs have either left or never showed up. The new messiah is very present and quite active. There has been direct messaging in addition to second-hand accounts of their concern over our behavior. Some of this messaging is in the form of physical actions like turning off nukes.
It is quite possible, as the world stands on the brink of cosmic level awfulness, that a third party with some very impressive technology and knowledge is offering to help fix things. Presently, tech support remains on hold. I remain convinced that in order to move forward, we all need to use the keypad on our phones and tap in:
