This community is for discussion surrounding UFOs and Extraterrestrials.

Rules

  1. Be your own moderator
    • Think before you post or comment, and use your common sense about what is acceptable. This is a community space and should ultimately be community-driven. Be the community you want to see here.
    • If you are here because you want to make fun of or grandstand over all of the silly people who believe that UFO/UAPs may exist, you are not welcome. Just block the community and go about your day.
  2. Be Civil
    • No trolling or being disruptive.
    • No insults or personal attacks.
    • No accusations that other users are shills/agents. If you have some kind of evidence of this, please report instead.
    • No hate speech or abusive speech based on race, religion, sex/gender, or sexual orientation.
    • No harassment, threats, or advocating violence.
    • No witch hunts or doxxing.
    • No summarily dismissive comments (e.g. "Swamp gas.").
  3. Posts must be related to UFO/UAPs
  4. Avoid duplicate posts
  5. Link posts should contain the linked content and a submission statement
    • Submission statements should contain a summary of the content, why it is relevant to UFOs, and optionally personal perspectives.
    • For short-form content, such as tweets, include the entire text.

I'm not sure Avi Loeb is the hero people here should want.

I kind of agree. I was not impressed by the paper he co-authored with Kirkpatrick.

Still, I think he represents a road to disclosure, just not the one where the bad actors of the cover up are exposed and punished.

Maybe, maybe not. He strikes me as more of an opportunist rather than any sort of disciple of truth. He's supposed to be a cut-and-dry physicist/astronomer, but he has an incredibly hostile approach to anyone who suggests his conclusions are over-hyped.
