UFO Conjectures

The End is near, and it’s not “disclosure”

A kind of finality appears to be close at hand and human folly and ignorance is ignoring it – the escapism from reality that both Freud and Jung exalted as a major problem of humankind.
 
The movements of China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea toward some kind of showdown with America are obvious to those attuned to international politics, while the general public hobnobs with temporary pleasures of many kinds.
 
The climate deterioration is blatant but people continue to vacation and slurp sports and other societal foolishnesses.
 
And for this blog and its point – despite many asides – the UFO dilemma is bypassed by almost everyone, including some of the smart guys and women who trek by here, often taking copy for their expressed interests, whether on X, or Instagram, Facebook, their blogs, websites, podcasts and other media, social and otherwise.
 
That dilemma is a kind of denouement of the UFO enigma, which is a showing of the UFO purpose and by whom.
 
No, it’s not a U.S. agency or any agency of Earth or the so-called extant “deep state(s)” which mooch on the phenomenon and its suggested intentions that presently becloud the UFO topic.
 
The mechanisms of the UFO entities – and there are entities – are nefarious, or so we should assume, considering the alleged animal mutilations, the so-called human abductions, the scouting of nuclear and military facilities and activities, and the lack of defin- itive response to human encounters, even malicious encounters by humans.
 
Responses here and at most other UFO enclaves miss or ignore all of this, in the kind of escapism from reality that portends either psychopathology or stupidity.
 
I like to think it’s the former rather than the latter, but some input recently offers a sliver of doubt.
 
I try not to use academic subterfuge here, and surely avoid the philosophical salads of Bryan Sentes or my challengers at Academia.edu.
 
But even then, some visiting here and responding, miss the simplest of points. 

I may not be the smartest guy on the block, but my offerings are rather simple and clear as are my thoughts can be. I’m not an A+ thinker but I am, at least, a B and sometimes B+ or B- thinker, as testing seems to indicate.
 
So, those missing my points are the fault.
 
I suggest you fellows and ladies sit up at the table ad grasp what is going on in the world or, at least, in the UFO arena.
 
Is that too much to ask?
 
Oh, and Ron Press,Tony Bragalia plus Bill Murphy and Chris Savia (at Anomalist) plus The Observer gang get it so they get a pass and pats on the back from me.

Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena

That “deep state” U.S. agency has almost suc- ceeded in removing UFOs as a singular phenomenon by inserting it inside a catch-all category – Anomalous – in which resides every para- normal thing that resides in the minds of fringe absorbed people.
 
(Yes, the Trump MAGA crowd has besmirched the idea of a “deep state” group running amok underneath the government, but deep states have always existed in human society, in many subsets of activity, whether governmental or any organized activity: culture, academia, science, religion, even sport. The “deep state” epithet functioning under various rubrics.)
 
A one-time best-seller book – A Nation of Sheep by William Lederer, 1961 – explains the mechanisms and psychology by which people are fed material to adjust their belief systems (and lives).
 
The problem today, as far as UFOs go, is that people who should know better – long-time UFO (flying saucer) enthusiasts – have almost all adopted the UAP designation, often errantly adding an “s” to phenomena in the sobriquet.
 
That "s" misuse is not the real problem, The dilution of the phenomenon by mixing it with all the various paranormal or anomalous phenomena in the world, past and present, has confused newbies and UFO old-timers too.
 
Many UFO registrants are inserting all kinds of weird things in their once UFOs only postings or podcasts and books.
 
The mess has upended the UFO conversation and semi-diligent pursuit of the phenomenon. We interested persons have to wade through the literature labeled UAP-relevant to find anything UFO related, often side-tracked by odd material that isn’t even close to the characteristic features of UFOs.
 
So, here we are, a nation of sheep, again as always actually. And we have no idea how to center the UFO topic once more.
 
It has gone viral, as they say, in a UAP way and not in a meaningful way…

Eyewitnesses talk about visitations of giant aliens and other bizarre UFO encounters in Israel

https://youtu.be/DBndVkG1anA

The accounts here are not abductions but encounters, with details that added to other encounters (via Rosales for instance) gives clues as to what UFOs may be.

Note the foot/shoe prints in one account: interesting.

And a UFO "researcher" touting his books annoys. No one knows about his books and people indicating authorship of 50 books -- of which no one recognizes -- is a folly of false vanity.
