AFS -It's A MAJOR Problem

"AFS" is not a rude phrase -read on!

I have written in my books and on this blog numerous times how astronomers and people working in the Search for Extra Terrestrial intelligence (SETI) -and these include many of the top names- will mock, resort to childish name calling or outrightly state that UFO reports and reports of alien entities are hoaxes or from the minds of people with mental health issues.

These are people who draw in bug salaries and a job and free dinners for life to look for alien life. Even when one of their number breaks ranks these people will not reassess evidence and discuss the matter. Their colleague has simply "flipped". In fact their colleague has followed a scientific principle to investigate and study with an open mind and put forward a matter for discussion.

Millions in funds go toward the equipment used by these "experts" in their non quest to find alien life but you will rarely hear "that signal seems interesting and though we do not know and cannot say it is of alien origin we will look into it".  The response is always (go to You Tube and you will see this in plenty of SETI videos) "It's not aliens. It is never aliens!" And this is drummed into students and others attending lectures so dogma is forced into once open minds.

Signals are "always" either "a microwave cooker in the building" or some other mundane thing such as, perhaps, "one of our satellites in orbit".  Now let's get this straight;  multiple millions in funds go into top notch "state of the art" equipment used by underlings of the "Job and free dinners or life" big names who take credit after someone else has pointed something out but -but- their equipment cannot tell whether a signal is coming from one of our own satellites in orbit -all tracked and known about?  Also, someone needs to be fired or an investigation needs to be carried out if the "state of the art"  equipment is detecting a microwave cooker in the facility's building.

You look at things this way and you start to think "Is this not how scams work?" 

Why is someone taking a huge pay salary and some even celebrity status to look for alien life or signals 99.9% of the time contradicting experienced colleagues and ridiculing the possibility of alien life? What actual results are these people showing after decades? Oh, the odd paper of fluff to keep the funding and dinners coming in but what real results? Perhaps whoever is allocating the millions in funding and pay cheques out to do annual performance reviews and cut back budgets -maybe even let Elon Musk take over a new SETI project where systems like Starlink are used to broadcast and search for signals.

Of course, rather like the medical profession, these people will turn blind eyes until someone is caught out and then everyone yells "we knew he /she was doing this!"  SETI has proven to be a money guzzler and it is like a big club where no one wants to let Joe Public in one what is going on as "it's ours!"

AFS is also at play. Again, in my books, I have referred to SETI and astronomers and their stances that make no sense unless those stances are ones established through fear. Alien Fear Syndrome can be because of religious beliefs, fear that humans (as in so many old sci fi works) will become food or egotistical fear. An alien so intelligent that it would make Albert Einstein look like a pretty dim kindergarten child. That would mean the pedestal would be kicked out from under these SETI/Astronomy super stars and if you watch their interviews and read what they have to say it is all about ego.

Then we have Ufologists. Since 1949, let's say, we have had reports of alien entities and Ufologists have willingly jumped on board with the newspapers and radio and later TV to mock or joke about these incidents.  In many cases it was easy to dismiss reports and in many cases a percipient or witness being "black" made it so much easier.  I have seen this over the decades.

Harrison E, Bailey was a hoaxing nut job -only Ann Druffel took time to look into this case and though I feel she made the wrong conclusions based on what she knew in Beyond UFO Contact I put forward an explanation that Ufologists should really have come to much earlier, However, Bailey's "status" of being "black" made it easier to just ridicule.

Eupora, Mississippi -a UFO (2) and alien entity incident on a US Interstate road was ignored and is still being ignored because the witnesses were "black". If this had been an incident witnessed by "white" people it would be classed, as it should be anyway, as a major UFO incident. Suggestions of "pot smoking" and even Viet Nam war PTSD (which would not affect all the observers) were put forward. Hynek, Ted Bloecher and others asked investigators locally to look into this case but "they were not going to go into a black area"

I saw how reports in the UK were either ignored or pushed to one side because observers were "black" and at one UFO meeting in the late 1970s I mentioned the Betty and Barney Hill case and people sniggered as one told me "Well, a white woman marrying a black man -how credible can they be?" And he was being serious. 

My point is that if Ufgologists have a prejudice based on ethnicity how would they cope with aliens? Well, they don't. The exception was Ted Bloecher who can be seen as the father of alien entity studies until he retired in the 1980s. As noted in my works and on this blog, I have seen -and you can see this by going to You Tube and watching selected videos of Erica Lukes and others- Ufologists calling themselves 30, 40 year "veteran ufologists" who have, it seems, never once read any reports of Close Encounters of the Third Kind or books on the subject (though they may have some on their bookshelves as they look pretty). each one almost uses the identical line:

"And then you have those little guys whatever that's about"

I dedicated a post to this:https://aeceiiikp.blogspot.com/2022/11/and-then-we-have-little-guys-whats-that.html

How can you possibly be a "veteran Ufologist" and know nothing about entity cases? How low an IQ or imagination do you have to have to literally become word blind to these incidents which, as most of these people totally incorrectly point out, "are just stories with no evidence".  However, these people will chase after evidence that a small light in the sky (LITS) was an alien space craft for years and they will soak up the fakery like Roswell, Trinity, Aurora not to mention promote and push proven liars such as Richard Doty (who ran a campaign against Ufology and drove one man insane) , Jacques Vallee (the worst 'scientific' researcher in Ufology) and many others to continue making money. The same with Budd Hopkins and David Jacobs (and others) who were pushed and promoted for monetary reasons and yet, it seems, these "veteran Ufologists" by-passed even that?

Why spend years gather report data and yet ignore entity cases or "file them away"? The -the- most basic question should be (and it was asked back in the early days of Ufology):

 "If these are intelligently controlled craft then who is piloting them?"

Although we understand now that a great many of the 1950s/1960s Contactee groups were simply covers for racist and right wing groups who pushed the tall, blonde haired, blue eyed alien brothers they were not controlling the Contactee followers and investigators around the world. Europe, Japan etc had big followings for Contactees like George Adamski and despite all the evidence over the years there are elements still stating that he was 100% genuine or, not wishing to lose viewers on You Tube (money, right?) will say that although many doubt his claims there still is a lot of "coincidental evidence" in his favour.

Tall, blonde, blue-eyed space brothers (an invention of the 1950s) or little Grey aliens (an invention of the 1980s) were all accepted or, in some cases (obviously) ignored by "veteran Ufologists".

Fantasy has taken over from factual research. Why are there so many in Ufology like this? Why do they sit picking fluff from their navel and suck their thumbs asking confusedly: "what are these little guys all about?"

Alien Fear Syndrome

These "truth-seekers" will brag a good line about how they are there to get to the truth and even state "I would love to see one of these things (UFO) up close" but most chuckle in a dismissive manner when asked about meeting an alien from said UFO. I have reported on, heard and read accounts of Ufologists observing an object land nearby or having a landing spot pointed out to them and...they run away or make some excuse as to why they can go no further.  In one case a UFO 'investigator' was with others when he observed a UFO land not far away in a hollow surrounded by trees -he sent his father to go check. 😑 

Really, he sent someone not involved in Ufology to check things out and I am glad to say that after even messing up evidence from the site he left Ufology. Not soon enough.

There are very good entity cases out there with physical and physiological evidence as well as third party observers and even radar tracking objects. Are the "veteran Ufologists" reading books? Are they getting their education from (I hate writing it) MUFON or You Tube? 

If SETI personnel and Astronomers as well as Ufologists cannot handle the notion of alien life or even look into the material out there...I guess they must just be interested in free meals and good pay checks or living a fantasy life as a "UFO researcher" (along with the "I want to believe" posters).

Alien Fear Syndrome is real but is never discussed because no one wants to highlight it (no money or kudos) and "professionals" are certainly not going to say "I'm scared aliens (I am looking for) might be real so ridicule accounts" (lost of funding and free dinners...and celebrity status).
