A top Pentagon official has attacked this week’s widely watched congressional hearing on UFOs, calling the claims “insulting” to employees who are investigating sightings and accusing a key witness of not cooperating with the official U.S. government investigation.
Who should we trust more:
the 3 military personnel/whistleblower who requested to be sworn in under oath
Or the person who frequently denies to be put under oath and instead vents on LinkedIn
Agreed. Not one single piece of empirical evidence. Just “they told me that…”
In their defense, the only reason the government allowed him to talk about it WAS because it’s hearsay. The government allowing him to talk is neither a denial or confirmation of the anything he said. The interesting part to me was that he said he was willing to talk specifics in a SCIF, but for some reason wasn’t allowed use of one. Also the hearing, while talking about UAP, is actually more about how congress has been allegedly kept from oversite of a government program and that’s illegal.
There was empirical evidence shown, just not to the public, because said evidence is classified. That’s why so much has happened since this hearing.

Sure, believable.
Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick’s letter, published on his personal LinkedIn page and circulated Friday across social media, criticizes much of the testimony from a retired Air Force intelligence officer that energized believers in extraterrestrial life and produced headlines around the world.
Lol, did he want him to walk in with an alien?
He must realize that, if he had first hand evidence, he’d have been dead by now if he was talking like this.

I don’t discount aliens outright, in fact I do believe, but I’d imagine any type of meta being would not be bound by physical bodies, and would more so exist within consciousness itself.
I do think the whole proceeding is some flavor of sham though.
Agreed. I can’t help but feel like this hearing is intended as a distraction. My midwestern city just had another thunderstorm with 70+mph winds and its the 5th or 6th of the summer. We’re in the middle of the hottest month ever in history and it’s like DC is humming along as if it’s business as usual. Nobody is even trying to do anything about fixing climate change or even just improving emergency preparedness for severe weather. Instead we have senators literally sitting in congress catatonic and having strokes on TV because staying in power is more important than doing anything for the country.
But hey, here’s a crazy hearing about UFOs.
If this is a distraction it’s a really shitty one, because it is front-page news nowhere in the US.
Meanwhile there are literally millions of other potential “distractions” like Hunter Biden news actually making and keeping headlines.
The “manufactured distraction” concept has always seemed as conspiracy-theory as alien encounters or flat earth or whatever in its own right, to me.
What do you think a consciousness looks like without a physical body?
Well I wouldnt say looks. Maybe feel. It would kind of look like a “simple technicolor light” to a physical body in the minds eye, but you’d feel a separate entity with you for sure. I’ve had this happen to me once or twice very intensly while practicing some home brew weird shit. It was kinda overwhelming. No one will ever be able to convice me that I was not interacting with something. It was 1 or 2 sperate, but one thing, and it literally threw a weird ass tiny ball of white string at me and all my cabinets opened up upstairs. I’m a crazy person. Proceed with caution.
Ufo nut jobs please gb2 reddit
I would actually prefer them over you… So goodbye.
Later!
There was a sub r/UFO I would check in on occasionally. The arguments people would get into there were … interesting.
This but socialists.
Lol wut? Socialists under every rock and behind every tree?
There are tons of socialists on Lemmy. There was a front page thread about why lol
I literally have two spewing nonsense at me right now
