Ashton Forbes, a healthcare IT consultant turned UFO/UAP proponent, gained attention for promoting videos claiming Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 disappeared due to alien interference, despite evidence debunking the footage. Later, Forbes fell victim to a $3,000 scam involving fake evidence supporting his beliefs, but continued to assert a conspiracy against him.
Existence is scary and we grab on to things that make us feel better.
They don’t though, they grab on to things that terrify them… wait, are conspiracy theorists just psycological self masochists?
Well, there may be that. But to the point about comfort. A lot of the UAP community is focused on the metaphysical these days. The whole thing is considered a phenomenon and not just flying space ships. So they leave room for a wide range of reasons for it all apart from aliens from distant galaxies.
So it’s basically an answer/ key to understanding existence and the afterlife for them.
But yeah. Then there are the people who think it’s some secret collusion plot with 8 races of aliens and ruling earth or something.
The variety of personalities actually lead to strife too.
I find the scene interesting because there are laws being passed about UAPs. And I can’t help but be curious about the scene now that I’ve observed so much of it.
You hit the nail on having an explanation, but it also needs to be an exciting, movie script like explanation. Something where the bit players have outsized roles and are somehow special. The gonzo shit some of these fuckwits come up with astounds me that anyone believes it!
