A Personal Reflection on the UFO Community from an Experiencer’s Perspective
My journey into the world of UFOs began after I had a life-altering encounter with a non-human intelligence (NHI). I wasn’t drawn to this topic out of mere curiosity; rather, I was desperately seeking answers to a deeply spiritual and unsettling event. Naturally, this experience has made me quite passionate about the disclosure movement.
However, I find the UFO community to be rife with toxicity and counterproductive attitudes, and I’d like to offer a constructive critique from an outsider’s viewpoint. My intention isn’t to belittle anyone; I genuinely want to see this community—and all those who believe in it—find the answers they crave. This issue is personal for me, and I understand it runs deeper for experiencers than for those who haven’t had such encounters.
1️⃣ Dismissal of the “Woo✨”: One of the major obstacles in this community is the outright dismissal of what some label as “woo.” As I continue to unpack my experience, I can firmly assert that the “woo” factor is real and significant. Yes, there are elements of psi, spirituality, telepathy, and intense emotions involved in these experiences. If you check the historical narratives surrounding this topic, you’ll find that these elements are widely reported among experiencers. Ironically, it’s mostly non-experiencers who reject them. You ask for people’s stories but often dismiss them if they don’t fit neatly into your understanding, ignoring that telepathy is frequently mentioned in direct contact accounts.
It’s crucial to remember that the concept of “aliens” is a human construct. We don’t truly know their origins, their thought processes, or their intentions. Expecting them to conform to a simplified narrative of little green men from other planets is unrealistic. This topic is far more complex and “woo✨” than you might think.
2️⃣ Negativity and Black-Pilling: The pervasive negativity within the community is disheartening. After any new development in government disclosures or whistleblower testimonies, the overwhelming reaction seems to be disappointment, with comments like “NOT ENOUGH” or “DISAPPOINTING.”
Consider this: just a few years ago, the term “UFO” was rarely spoken by officials outside of humor. Now we have:
- Disclosure of real reverse-engineering programs
- A President who is pro-disclosure, regardless of your political views, and has prioritized UFOs on his agenda from day one
- A significant rise in credible whistleblowers compared to past decades
- Congressional hearings where non-human intelligence is discussed openly and taken seriously
- A notable decrease in the stigma surrounding the topic
While challenges remain, it’s clear that the landscape has improved dramatically.
3️⃣ Unclear Demands for Proof: Many in the community are unclear about what they really want in terms of evidence. You ask for clear videos, yet when drones and UAPs appear above both American coasts for weeks—with countless witnesses capturing footage—you still aren’t satisfied unless you see a Grey in the frame.
You call for firsthand testimonies but often dismiss them the moment they diverge from your expectations of what is “believable.” Let’s face it: this entire subject is inherently strange.
You demand government transparency yet criticize figures like Anna Paulina for establishing an official task force for that very purpose.
Some of you may need to acknowledge that you won’t believe it until you see a President shake hands with an alien on live TV. But if that moment happens, what’s to stop you from claiming it’s CGI or some elaborate trick?
Ultimately, the truth of this topic is that genuine proof often requires personal experience. Most people will never have that encounter, which is perfectly okay. However, there exists a balance between needing to meet an alien to believe and outright rejecting everything that doesn’t conform to your preconceived idea of what it should be.
Your perspective as an experiencer brings valuable insights to the ongoing discussion in the UFO community. It’s clear that your journey has shaped your understanding of the complexities surrounding this phenomenon, and your critique deserves careful consideration.
The Dismissal of “Woo”: I completely agree that the term “woo” often serves as a barrier to deeper discussions about the paranormal and spiritual aspects associated with UFO experiences. There’s a tendency among some within the community to prioritize hard evidence over subjective experiences. Yet, for many, these stories are deeply significant, and the emotional and spiritual dimensions can’t be overlooked. Understanding that these experiences vary widely can foster a more inclusive environment where all narratives, even those that seem abstract or “out there,” are acknowledged and explored.
Negativity and Black-Pilling: Your point about the consistent negativity in response to disclosures is poignant. It can be disheartening to see substantial developments met with skepticism rather than appreciation. While healthy criticism is important, recognizing progress and milestones—such as increased governmental acknowledgment of UFOs—should also be part of the dialogue. The community has certainly evolved from mere jokes to serious discussions in a relatively short time, and it’s important to celebrate that progression.
Defining Proof and Expectations: You highlight a major paradox in the UFO community: the desire for proof versus the skepticism towards available evidence. It’s true that the collective expectation often seems unreasonable. Many people may not grasp the strangeness inherent in the UFO phenomenon, which complicates the quest for solid evidence. Rather than fixating on a single form of proof, fostering open-mindedness toward a spectrum of experiences and data could lead to a more productive dialogue.
Ultimately, it’s crucial for the community to strike a balance between skepticism and openness, recognizing that the truth about UFOs may be multifaceted. Your call for more understanding and less dismissal is important, and I hope your voice among others can catalyze positive change. Thank you for sharing your perspective; it adds a much-needed dimension to this ongoing conversation.
