We're talking about a massive infrastructure that is behind this ufo phenomenon it's massive. It's almost too big even to conceptualize like it's very difficult to imagine an organization that is so comprehensive that is acting around the world all the time every night there is like low maneuvering craft sometimes triangle sometimes a saucer shaped craft that is silently gliding over your home or over your neighbor's home or someone nearby often at like 300 feet above the house or even lower at like two or three in the morning.
...
I mean to to some extent I do think we can extrapolate a few things keeping in mind that this is speculation but I do think that there is a good likelihood that at least some and maybe all of these alien groups are here because they can see that we are going through this transformation I've been calling it the fourth stage of humanity from hunting and gathering you go to settle agriculture to science and industry and now to a transhumanist ant colony. Aa very powerful ant colony with tremendous technological and scientific breakthroughs and you know genetics, ai computing capabilities you know everything just everything weaponry the whole thing so they're interested in us and I do think that is a big reason why they are here in such large numbers.

• "The UFO phenomenon appears to me as a temporary, paraphysical intrusion into our physical dimension by an unknown intelligence or unknown sentient entitities, paraphysically materializing themselves to a “pre-selected” observer (or a group of observers) and presenting to the observer as a physical extraterrestrial phenomenon and visitation."

I dislike the terms debunker and skeptic in general, as they are used as personal attacks, and not used per their dictionary definitions.
• "Skeptic - One who practices the method of suspended judgment, engages in rational and dispassionate reasoning as exemplified by the scientific method, shows willingness to consider alternative explanations without prejudice based on prior beliefs, and who seeks out evidence and carefully scrutinizes its validity."
• "There are organized group of scoffers masquerading under the term 'skeptics' who deny, ridicule and suppress anything progressive that challenges the static views of the establishment. They are debunkers who tend to distort, dismiss and obfuscate any phenomenon that challenges a conventional materialistic view of reality. In truth, they are not true skeptics engaging in open inquiry, but selective debunkers with an agenda to defend the establishment."

BTW have also been meaning to ask if you have ever come across what you consider is a decent definition of 'high strangeness'?

We must be careful with anthropomorphization it's a

Yes but then what do you make of the humour that is involved in some cases - seemingly a very humanlike humour ?
Are we not also falling into the same trap by assuming the oz reveal was deliberate and for that purpose ?

yes, pseudoskepitc is a real thing, though one of our members harps on it too much.
• "Hendry objected strongly to Klass's modus operandi, which Hendry argued was based on suppressed and distorted evidence, unscientific reasoning, ad hominem attacks, smear campaigns, character assassination, scientific bait and switch tactics, and seemingly refusing to evaluate evidence that conflicted with his preconceptions."

• "Since the late 1940s, witnesses have described numerous disconcerting behaviors in our so-called space visitors. UFO crew members have been scary, curious, funny, evasive, talkative, violent, indifferent, rude, generous, terrifying and even absurd.
I believe few researchers have questioned how it is possible that alleged aliens can repeat over and over again such a variety of behaviors in their landings as if in each case these actions were restarted again, since they are never developed but simply outlined..
But for our study the most interesting thing is to decipher why a presumed extraterrestrial would show himself surprised in the presence of a witness after landing hundreds of times?
Why does he repeat his amazement in the presence of a human being in the surroundings of a UFO? And similarly, how many times would he need to repair his flying saucer in front of a witness? How many ground samples does he need to collect? How many glasses of water does he need to drink to quench his thirst? How many times would these "scientific" aliens need to perform a medical exam on a human? Why would a suspected alien stay static at the side of a road while the witness drives by?
Why do all these actions repeat themselves over and over again? Why haven't the occupants of UFOs evolved over time in their behavior and relationship to humans, only repeating certain behavioral patterns? Why do the occupants after hundreds, perhaps thousands of landings, keep repeating these same behavioral-like mantras?

I do grieve a little bit, that all the intelligence operations, snake oil and mania have polluted the field of possible cases that might be honestly researched.
The goal should be to learn new science, not to put forward a convenient lie as a narrative for personal gain.
• "Governments took notice, organizing task forces, encouraging secret briefings and study groups, funding classified research and all the time denying before the public that any of the phenomena might be real. The major revelation of these Diaries may be the demonstration of how the scientific community was misled by the government, how the best data were kept hidden, and how the public record was shamelessly manipulated."

This is why death, 'faeries' and 'UFOs' are 'joined at the hip'..
• "After many years of reflecting about what he had truly seen, he believed they were alive, rather than anything made out of nuts and bolts.. He believed that they were possibly from the world where we go when we die. That’s what he believed. He was only brave enough to tell this to a newspaper reporter two years before he died in 1982. He felt that the flying saucers were the link between the living and the dead. It took him his entire lifetime to let 'the cat out of the bag' you might say, and be brave enough to state it the way he really believed."
