Irrationality and dreck in the UFO arena

Copyright 2020, InterAmerica, Inc. 

As I scour the postings in Facebook’s UFO groups, I’m noticing batches of materials that are irrelevant, older than dirt, or a push by many to make a mark in Ufology before they pass.

Some long-timers – I’m not going to mention their names – see the handwriting on the wall (their coming deaths) and are trying to scrape some serious recognition within the UFO community.

But then there are those who are on the fringe of the UFO world who push forward anything, no matter how inane or vapid, striving for attention.

The mess created by UFO stragglers and wannabes is not only sad but pathetic.

What does one gain by a modicum of fame or attention within the walls of the UFO universe?

I’ve tried to sift through the vast dumping of stuff that seems to have value, bringing the crumbs to a few of my blogs, but lately the dumpings have gotten so vast and useless that sorting the good from the bad (or worthless) has become tiresome, putting me into the senseless category I’m berating here.

But one will get noticed and some feedback there – at Facebook – while feedback here and elsewhere in the blogger realm remains muted or ignored.

I’ll see how much longer this can go on here.
