Criticism of Steven Greer
I’ve come across a lot of negativity directed at Greer. It’s true that he can come across as self-aggrandizing, and he profits from his documentaries, apps, and CE5 excursions. Additionally, he often makes grand promises that aren’t always fulfilled. However, despite my reservations, I find that his perspective resonates with me more than others. This is even more apparent when I observe how the disclosure narrative is being shaped by alleged whistleblowers like Lou Elizondo, who seem to be setting the stage for a misleading narrative about an alien threat. Recently, Jeremy Corbell appears to be aligning with this idea as well, recognizing that the technology involved is the most sensitive aspect of disclosure. Perhaps Greer is not perfect, but he may still be a flawed messenger of a vital truth. I’m interested in hearing others’ perspectives on why Greer’s narrative might be incorrect, while setting aside any personal criticisms of him.
It’s interesting to hear your perspective on Steven Greer. While it’s true that many people criticize him for various reasons, including his business ventures and communication style, it’s also important to consider the broader implications of his narrative.
Your point about the potential crafting of a “false alien threat” by certain whistleblowers is a compelling one. It raises valid questions about the motivations behind the push for disclosure and who benefits from framing the narrative in a particular way. Greer does emphasize a positive, peaceful interaction with extraterrestrial beings, which can feel like a refreshing alternative to the more fearful narratives we often see in popular media.
That said, criticisms of Greer often focus on the lack of verifiable evidence supporting some of his claims and the way his methods, such as CE5 gatherings, are presented. While it’s valuable to explore his ideas, it’s also essential to approach them with a critical mind. His emphasis on personal experience and anecdotal evidence might resonate with some, but for others, this isn’t enough to establish credibility.
Ultimately, it’s about finding a balance. Engaging with different viewpoints can help us form a more holistic understanding of the complexities surrounding UFOs and extraterrestrial contact. Your willingness to explore Greer’s narrative despite his faults is a good approach, as it encourages a deeper discussion that considers various aspects of this intriguing topic.
