Obviously ‘Deny Ignorance’ is a phrase we all attempt to stand by. This means we question everything, which helps us to avoid manipulation.

As you all are acutely aware, we’ve recently seen an influx of alien and ufo (UAP) news regarding our own government. The main questions are in regards to what our government entities actually know, and if any agencies within the government are actively covering up their respective knowledge on the subject.
The recent David Grusch whistleblower testimony to congress has certainly highlighted the rising media attention. But, the reaction of ATS members is not what I expected.
Obviously ‘Deny Ignorance’ is a phrase we all attempt to stand by. This means we question everything, which helps us to avoid manipulation.
But, after the ‘Grusch’ testimony I’ve noticed something peculiar. After years of awaiting some sliver of light, some sign that actual disclosure from our government might happen, many of you have jumped the shark.
Has the government misdirection campaign been so effective that now you yourselves aren’t capable of belief in anything? If so, we are now too far gone and are under their spell completely.
Think about this, a bonafide and credentialed intelligence officer spills the beans under oath to congress, on national television no less, but he is immediately dismissed by many of you as a shill?
And this is despite the many years of mounting evidence and literally thousands of accounts of unexplainable encounters, many involving our own military. We all know the stories, the first hand accounts…our own experiences…
But now, once again, an individual who was given a responsibility to investigate these issues and gather intelligence by our government is telling you there’s a cover-up. He’s gone against the grain, lawyered up and spoken out…with many others lending their public support of him.
Yet, instead of enthusiastically celebrating some progress, however how small, you’ve now decided it’s all a stage.
Some of you are truly lost.
Our government cannot afford a population that further mistrusts them, especially after the COVID issues and our citizenry’s growing skepticism of anything and everything. They don’t want the RFKs of the world being legitimate president candidates. The last thing they need is public accusations by congress of illegal activity as well as the promise of investigations. And, this is a congress who has grown tired of intelligence agencies and the military complex and her proxies.
I’m not suggesting to blindly believe anything. I’m suggesting that we don’t dismiss things outright just because for so long we’ve seen the government so successful at suppression.
The chinks in the armor are growing. Deny ignorance indeed.

show me a picture of the downed craft, or one of the biologics spoke of.
It's not that none of us believe, hell, most of us want nothing more than for this to be true. And to some degree, it likely is. I don't doubt "we" have craft and likely bodies in a hangar somewhere. "THEY" have lied and obfuscated so often, that until you show me the craft and or the body, I will have to assume you are lying.
Please tell me I don't need to talk to you about the boy who cried wolf.

And if this a controlled leak (I believe it is, otherwise David would have disappeared), then we must ask the question - why now?
Wouldn't a real whistleblower show us the documents like Ed Snowden did? Snowden was a real whistleblower and provided real documentation. I would be disappointed in ATS if they swallowed the Benito Mussolini story based on nothing but Grusch's word and I don't know why you wouldn't want to see some evidence of that yourself before buying into the story.
Grusch, unfortunately, had no solid evidence for his claims, saying the documents and data were classified, but that he should be believed, regardless, because “I have the credentials, and I was an intelligence officer.”
