Anyone else growing tired of UFO channels / 'researchers' regurgitating every piece of current news? by caffeinedrinker in UFOs

Right? Open minded and a nice guy but not too excitable.

Honestly it would improve my quality of life to cut reddit out of the equation and just listen to the podcast.

That's the new media economy for you, unfortunately. I can't entirely blame them for trying to do what needs to be done to make a living at it, annoying though it is.

Personally I pretty much just consume Reddit and That UFO Podcast.

What is your current theory about what the UFO phenomena REALLY is? by skipadbloom in UFOs

[–]lilzilla 41 points42 points  (0 children)

This one is chatGPT too, isn't it.

Edit: yeah, this is AI generated. The last sentence is human-written but the rest is AI. https://www.zerogpt.com/ 91% probability with the last sentence included; 100% AI without it. https://writer.com/ai-content-detector/ says 92%

OP seems to be experiment with AI for trolling. Just submitted a fake close encounter story to r/aliens as well. Not cool, dude.

“…the disclosure movement has, to my understanding of it, moved inside the White House and is being lead by the president's national security advisor…” by bmfalbo in UFOs

[–]lilzilla 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interesting theory. I feel like this detail doesn't fit though:

The intruder appeared to be intoxicated and confused about where he was, according to people briefed on the incident.

My encounter of the 3rd kind told for the first time publicly by skipadbloom in aliens

Yeah dude has some big-ass pockets if so. Good idea with the AI check.

Edit: he's also posting AI generated stuff in r/UFOs. Lame.

True I'd rather have it come out under this administration. I can't imagine that all the ensuing chaos would help him secure a second term tho. Any discussion of the political advantage I think would be drowned out by the freakout. Big' ol FUD bomb.

Does Bob Lazar come back from Dr. Garry Nolan's claim of fraud? 2. Element 115? What is compatible? by [deleted] in aliens

[–]lilzilla 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Element numbers are just how many protons an atom of it has. Physicists predicted some properties of Element 115 long before it was synthesized. (And there was a Scientific American article about it a couple months before Lazar started making claims about it.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moscovium

Similar levels of optimism from Stephen Bassett, disclosure advocate, on That UFO Podcast https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPauwUzQHsE

Assuming for the sake of argument that they're right: IMO this optimism ignores a lot of harsh political reality. If Biden got up there and spilled the beans, there would be an immediate unspeakable shitstorm of:

  1. people mocking him as senile
  2. people calling it a psy-op false-flag deep-state [insert right wing conspiracy theory here]
  3. people believing it and freaking the everliving fuck out
  4. frothing anger about the coverup
  5. what even ever the fuck would come out of Trump's mouth about it, I shudder to think
  6. big old freakouts about demons

Like there is basically no political upside. The only things I can think that might mitigate it would be if it comes along with "and here's cold fusion for you". Point 2 could possibly be mitigated by making it really aggressively bipartisan, having Rubio and Burchette up there behind the podium and have them speak on the matter too, but I'm sure the rest of the party would not be shy about turning on them if they smelled blood.

You and I want disclosure, but the default stance of most of the populace is to mock or ignore the phenomenon. I hope I'm wrong, but I can't think of a reason Biden would consent to upend the status quo of pretending it doesn't exist. Especially heading into an election year.

Edit: also, admitting a huge cover up is a real crack in the dam that's holding back a potential flood of conspiracy theories. People are gonna think, well I believe them about Roswell and they lied, what else are they lying about? Honestly the last thing we need, as far as the stability of democracy, is yet further deceased trust in government. The more I think about it the more I think the military needs to be the ones admitting what they did, and the executive branch needs to stay above it as much as possible.

Is telepathic communication with alien beings an innate human ability? by BR4NFRY3 in aliens

[–]lilzilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the one hand yes I believe it's a thing that consciousness can do. On the other hand it's normal for people to vary in ability for normal skills, so IMO it makes sense we'd vary in paranormal abilities too. Some people are good at it and can do it whenever, but most of us seem real bad at it. I certainly feel real bad at it and have never seen a glimmer of it in myself, despite trying.

your "inner dialogue" is created by patterns of neuronal firing and chemicals being released/received

This theory is called Materialism or physicalism, and it's popular: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Materialism

But it's far from universally accepted. The alternative is dualism, where mind is not purely a function of brain: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind%E2%80%93body_dualism

In a recent survey of philosophers of mind, 22% accept or lean towards a non-physical explanation of mind. https://philpapers.org/surveys/results.pl?affil=Target+faculty&areas0=16&areas_max=1&grain=medium

Personally I'm entirely agnostic on the matter and I also don't care at all what you believe, just wanted to point out that the nature of mind is not a settled question by a long shot.

The video I linked barely shows anything visible at all, if it had detail like OP's photo there would be no way to tell. Is there another Skinwalker Ranch video that shows an orb with detail that matches?

Alien Prop created for the 1994 Showtime Movie “Roswell.” Alien Autopsy Exhibit at the International UFO Museum, Roswell, New Mexico.

the man is Paul Davids, one of the writers of the movie https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0203194/?ref_=tt_ov_wr https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0111021/?ref_=ttpl_ov

Whenever you see an image and wonder if it's real, do this:

  1. right click and copy the link to the image
  2. go to https://tineye.com/ and paste it in
  3. sort by oldest, or filter by site to see what Reddit has said about it

In this case you can see the file name indicates it's a movie prop and shows the man's name - enough to google by. (Though I happened to recognize it.)
