@PostDisclosure What we lack is good evidence. Without it the testimony will remain as anecdotes. The hypothesis that this is down to human frailty, failings etc will prevail.
One of the laziest moves in UFO skepticism is pretending ‘not proof’ means ‘just stories.’
No, the UFO evidence we have is not just stories. This is nonsense.
First of all, UFO whistleblower David Grusch, who was entrusted with some of the United States’ most sensitive secrets, testified to the ICIG, and they deemed the matter credible and urgent, as @SicCoP1 has pointed out to the chagrin of some incompetent skeptics.
Furthermore, we’ve had new witnesses and whistleblowers coming forward for about ten years now, and it doesn’t seem to be slowing down. This is strong corroboration, not just stories. Get a grip.
We also have President Trump, then-DNI Tulsi Gabbard, members of Congress, and others actively investigating whether the allegations of a UFO cover-up are true, while Vice President JD Vance has publicly said the administration is working on the UFO files and that he will get to the bottom of them.
Beyond that, we have eighty years of data from witnesses all over the world that demonstrate clear patterns.
We have aviators like Commander David Fravor and Lieutenant Commander Chad Underwood who are adamant that the Tic Tac had capabilities unknown at the time, and still unknown. This is, by definition, expert testimony.
What we lack is proof, sure. But to suggest the UFO enigma is equivalent to ghost stories around a campfire insults everyone’s intelligence.
Just stop.
@psionicasset You can clearly see a small and tall grey arguing and eventually fighting over a comb. The decline of these interdimensional beings is tough to watch. It is very sad.
@PostDisclosure The UFO conversation hasn't dramatically changed because there isn't enough public evidence to assess that likely some UFOs stem from non human intelligence
@MizzMisanthrope@michaelshermer@GalileoProject1@POTUS Well being called a fully paid up member of the Michael Shermer fan club is at least a start....These are personal opinions. Too often emotion gets in the way. I hope this thing gets off the ground with a new approach.
@MizzMisanthrope@michaelshermer@GalileoProject1@POTUS That he mocks those who make unevidenced claims is not the point-and plenty of posts mocking and insulting sceptics have also been deleted. The UFO topic is only one of his targets-he's a sceptic in the fullest sense of the word. Provide good evidence and he'll change his mind.
@MizzMisanthrope@michaelshermer@GalileoProject1@POTUS That was 2 years ago. To date he has not been proven wrong about Grusch. If this panel is real he'll be the ideal foil for others who think differently. Adversarial collaboration could be fruitful.
