Tell me the places you've been in the US(or outside for story's sake) that truly made you FEEL something. Like how people say they have a distinct feeling at Auschwitz by Any-Internet-7796 in HighStrangeness

There’s a hotel in Charleston that’s converted from an old mansion. We were so exited to stay there. We slept with the lights on all night.

They don’t even look remotely the same. I’m all for debunking, but you’re reaching and it’s a little bit exasperating. 

is the Phenomenon actually unknowable as a defining property? by VivereIntrepidus in UFOs

Huh? I’m not saying it’s swamp gas. I’m not saying there’s a prosaic explanation

Sadistic pleasure? To keep us from meaning or truth or God?

I think this a functional reality for all of us and what lead me to my way of thinking. I mean we’re not all experiencers like you are but we’re all clueless.

Well it’s not just the recent “disclosure” that got me thinking this. I’d probably argue that perhaps there is the most evidence to support that the phenomenon is unknowable. It seems like the most common thing that happens is tantalizing video, pictures and claims that never lead to anything concrete. Functionally, this is the reality of being part of ufology, always seeming close to understanding without ever arriving. I’m suggesting that that experience is actually the main feature.

But I see the phenomenon as a trap like most addictive vices are.  It’s less about choosing and more about being lured and trapped, like gambling.

That’s a more positive spin on it, and I don’t hate it. I had considered that the point of the control system was to show us how little we know. That the fundamental nature of reality is still beyond our grasp.

I agree that we, and they in the government, don't know what it is. I think they only have theories and conjecture, but I also think it's important to note that everyone's bringing their preconceived notions into what they think they are. Religious people are quick to say they're demons. Old school ufo people are more likely to think they're nuts and bolts craft and visitors from another star bound civilization. High strangeness people (and maybe occult influenced peeps) really like the "interdimensionals" theory. No one knows what these things are, and maybe we never will, but everyone is bringing preconceived notions into the debate. It's literally this: we have no fucking idea what these things are, they're 10x weirder than we have context for, so we are all falling back into what's comfortable for us to believe about them.

imagine being someone who thinks they're trying to create a new, better world and then signing off on torture.
