This is a specific question directed towards one of the statements made by u/VolarRecords in his post relevant to the above title. To get straight to the point without writing an entire thesis as to why this sentence bothers me, here is the statement:

If Russia or China get this technology, it’s checkmate.

Why is this sentence framed with the paradigm in mind that the U.S. is the “good guy” who’s supposed to have this knowledge / technology??? If China or Russia get this technology, would they not use it to their advantage in threats or threat-deterrence similar to the U.S.?? How is two other world superpowers getting this technology different to the U.S.? Judging from this whole conspiracy-ridden scenario of UAP’s/Aliens in general, we all should be aware that the U.S. isn’t in the moral right?…
