Every week there’s a new monster (MOTW) where all the evidence for outsiders disappears, or there’s the mythology where the government is covering it up.

I’m a huge skeptic in almost everything, but if I saw what she saw, I would clearly believe. That’s plenty of evidence for me, and I’m an actual scientist (well PhD engineer. I definitely did real science in school though)

The shit’s clearly real in their universe.

      This is a whole bunch of word salad. (= “this is verbose nonsense”)

      It’s just four paragraphs, and their content is rather clear. TL;DR:

      • Scully works from the PoV of a RL scientist
      • Scully has a fraction of the info that viewers do, and that fraction does not include things that would contradict a sceptic explanation
      • As such there’s no reason for Scully to change her worldview to accept aliens and other weirdness
