Aliens

Btw this was a good overview article (covers Mick West, Leslie Kean, etc):
https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2021/05/10/how-the-pentagon-started-taking-ufos-seriously

yeah, I liked that article, but like a lot of reporting it felt pretty incomplete, because it has to be incomplete, because unidentified aerial phenomena etc.

the officially sanctioned 'disclosure' with elizondo et al is now alluding to remote viewing, skinwalkers, and all kinds of batshit stuff. it's been hugely entertaining to casually pay attention but i still don't understand the 'why'. concealing tech would have been one thing but now i think they're trying to drive people insane/divert from qanon? they're basically restarting the ufo cults

i mean, look at this shit. it has a harry reid quote on the cover!

also i’ve bought some jacque vallee books. man is fascinating

Jacques Vallée is a seriously cool dude

I quite enjoy the pic in that first post Guardian article

it’s slightly lonely being a left wing UFO guy since it's the purview of so many art bell adjacent cranks, but can someone here please explain to me why the government tried to pass a bill saying they would seize technology of nonhuman origin from military contractors and then why did the contractors use their influence to scuttle the important parts of the bill if there is nothing there and it’s all a distraction or whatever. facts and logic me please. this has been deeply fascinating and weird to follow the last few years and the topic and it’s ‘lore’ has never gotten to the level of actual legislation before

yes i want to believe etc etc but what is going on here

'mirage men' the book goes into the extensive history of intel services using UFO shit as a smokescreen for advanced projects but to my knowledge the civilian branches have never bitten to this extent

government passing a bill is easy - if there's something there they want to know, if not then no harm. plus as mirage men shows, gullible & venal senators are happy to sign up to anything that sees money coming their way. don't know about the contractors - healthy and sensible scepticism? don't know the ins & outs of what you're referring to though.

"non-human intelligence"?
