Talking to Eight-Year-Old Me: The Victory Lap I Never Knew I Needed

Talking to Eight-Year-Old Me: The Victory Lap I Never Knew I Needed

Sometimes I think about the eight-year-old version of myself and wonder what he'd think if he could see the world today.

When I was eight years old, I was already a member of Citizens for UFO Secrecy. I was fascinated by UFOs, Bigfoot, and the mysteries of the world that most people seemed content to dismiss. I wanted answers. I wanted people to take these subjects seriously. And, if I'm being honest, I wanted to live long enough to see the day when the things I was interested in were no longer automatically treated as ridiculous.

I spent years researching these subjects, writing about them, making documentaries, and trying to get people to look at the evidence for themselves. I created blogs, accumulated information, and followed developments that most people around me had little interest in discussing.

Sometimes I was ridiculed. Sometimes I was dismissed before anyone seriously considered what I was saying. And sometimes I probably got carried away with a theory or gave too much weight to an interpretation that the evidence couldn't fully support.

I'm not claiming that every conclusion I reached was correct. I'm not claiming that every UFO report represents an extraterrestrial spacecraft, that Bigfoot has been conclusively established, or that every suspicious event has a nefarious explanation.

Those are different questions, and they deserve to be evaluated individually.

But something has changed.

The World My Younger Self Wanted to See

UFOs, once routinely relegated to the margins of public conversation, are now discussed in congressional hearings, investigated through official channels, and addressed by people who have held positions of responsibility.

NASA has conducted a scientific study of unidentified anomalous phenomena, publishing a report with recommendations for improving the collection and analysis of UAP data. That doesn't establish extraterrestrial origins, but it does demonstrate that these observations can be approached as legitimate subjects for scientific investigation.

Bigfoot and other cryptid subjects continue to attract media attention, documentaries, witnesses, researchers, and public interest. That attention doesn't prove every claim, but it does mean the subject hasn't simply disappeared into obscurity.

The broader point is that subjects I cared about as a child have become part of conversations that reach far beyond the circles in which they were once discussed.

And I have been part of that journey.

I've written about these subjects for years. I've assembled research, published articles, made videos, and tried to preserve information that I believed deserved consideration. I even put together a Bigfoot documentary using mainstream news reports about sightings, alleged evidence, and related developments, allowing the material to speak for itself without adding my own commentary.

I've never published a conventional UFO book, and I don't need to pretend that I accomplished everything I once imagined I would. But I did something with my interests. I followed them. I created things. I participated in the conversation.

If you'd like to explore some of that work, visit my UFO blog, Debunking UFOs. For a broader collection of research, ideas, and reflections, visit Mind Treasury.

And these days, I'm exploring some of those same big questions through music, too. You can find my work on TikTok at @Crashout.Royalty, where I bring together music, humor, unusual ideas, and creative experiments as part of the Crash Out Aristocrats collective.

The mediums have changed, but the curiosity that started all this is still there.

For a long time, I thought the victory would be having everyone acknowledge that I was right.

Now I'm beginning to understand that the victory is bigger than that.

I Want to Be Wrong About the Darkest Possibilities

There's something else I wish I could say.

I wish I could look back at some of the things I've spent years investigating and discover that I was wrong about the darker possibilities. I wish I could find explanations that put certain suspicions to rest, that showed the world was less corrupt, less deceptive, and less frightening than I sometimes believed it to be.

I would love to be able to say that I was right to ask questions, right to investigate, and right to demand evidence, but thank God my conclusions were wrong.

I can't honestly say that about everything. Some questions remain unanswered. Some things I still find difficult to explain. I can't manufacture certainty just because a definitive answer would be comforting.

But I can say something else: the world isn't as dark as I once thought it was.

I've come to recognize that, and I'm grateful for it.

I still want the truth. I still believe questions should be asked, evidence should be examined, and powerful institutions should be accountable for their actions. But I've also learned that questioning something doesn't mean you have to reach the darkest possible conclusion.

Uncertainty isn't proof of wrongdoing, just as an official explanation isn't automatically proof that everything is fine. A discrepancy can have several possible explanations, and the responsible thing is to investigate them rather than decide in advance which one must be true.

I want to believe that some of the things I've worried about will ultimately have ordinary explanations. I want to discover that some of my suspicions were mistaken. And where the evidence doesn't give me an answer, I can leave the question open and get on with living.

I don't have to abandon my curiosity to find some peace. I just have to stop making peace dependent on solving everything.

The World Is Better Than We Sometimes Realize

There's another reason I've been thinking about victory laps.

For years, it was easy to concentrate on everything that was wrong with the world. When you're researching corruption, controversial subjects, unexplained events, and the possibility that powerful people aren't telling the whole story, you can spend so much time looking at the darkness that you forget to look at anything else.

But take a step back and consider what humanity has accomplished.

Ordinary people today have access to food, conveniences, communications, entertainment, and medical care that even many wealthy people in earlier centuries couldn't obtain. We can speak with someone on the other side of the planet in seconds. We can access libraries of information from a device in our pockets. We can learn skills, create music, publish our ideas, and share our work with people we will never meet in person.

Consider the long-term decline in extreme poverty. According to Our World in Data's analysis of World Bank data, the share of the world's population living in extreme poverty fell substantially between 1990 and 2025, including when China is excluded from the comparison.

That doesn't mean poverty has disappeared. Progress has slowed, and billions of people still face hardship and insecurity. But the reduction in extreme poverty represents a major change in human living conditions.

We see a similar story in health. Our World in Data's historical life-expectancy research documents the enormous increase in global life expectancy over the last century. Its research on child mortality shows how dramatically the chances of surviving childhood have improved.

These improvements reflect many factors, including sanitation, nutrition, clean water, vaccination, medicine, education, and economic development.

We shouldn't pretend that every part of life has improved, or that history moves in a perfectly straight line. Wars still happen. People still suffer. Some hard-won freedoms are threatened, and progress can be reversed.

But we should also be honest about how far we've come.

Think About Medicine

Conditions that once meant almost certain death can now be treated, managed, or prevented. Infections that killed people before antibiotics can often be cured. Insulin transformed the treatment of diabetes. Modern anesthesia, vaccines, advanced imaging, organ transplantation, and emergency medicine have changed what it means to be sick or injured.

And we're still at the beginning of what may become possible.

Gene therapies are already treating certain diseases. For a concrete example of how far this field has advanced, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's list of approved cellular and gene therapy products includes treatments that use approaches such as gene modification and engineered cells.

Researchers are also exploring regenerative medicine, more personalized treatments, and ways to identify illnesses earlier and intervene more precisely. Artificial intelligence is opening new avenues for medical research and drug discovery.

We don't know how far these developments will take us. Some promising approaches will fail, and some current practices will eventually be replaced. But the potential is extraordinary.

I sometimes wonder what future generations will think of our medicine. We look back at bloodletting, the use of toxic substances as treatments, and medical procedures performed without adequate anesthesia or infection control, and we wonder how people could have accepted such things.

What practices that we consider normal today will future generations regard as unnecessarily crude, painful, or misguided?

We don't know. But the history of medicine gives us reason to believe that our understanding will continue to change.

And that is a remarkable thing about humanity: we can learn that we were wrong, improve our methods, and give the next generation a better starting point than the one we inherited.

Science Fiction Is Becoming Everyday Life

When I was growing up, many of the technologies we now use would have seemed like science fiction.

We can speak to artificial intelligence and receive answers in seconds. Machines can recognize speech, interpret images, translate languages, and help people perform tasks that once required specialized knowledge. Robots can explore other planets, assist with complex procedures, and operate in environments that are dangerous for human beings.

We're not living in a world of fully autonomous Star Wars droids that can do everything a human can do. But the distance between imagination and practical technology has narrowed in ways that would have seemed astonishing to earlier generations.

And the implications extend far beyond convenience.

Artificial intelligence, robotics, advanced manufacturing, and improvements in energy production could eventually reduce the amount of human labor required to provide the necessities of life.

Imagine a world where food production, housing construction, transportation, energy, and other essential services become so efficient that people no longer have to spend most of their lives working simply to survive.

Imagine being able to pursue music, art, scientific research, relationships, education, or personal interests without the constant threat of losing access to basic necessities.

That is the kind of future I want to see.

A resource-based economy is one possible way of thinking about that future: using technology, scientific planning, and available resources to meet human needs rather than making access to necessities depend entirely on purchasing power.

We haven't achieved that world. Technology alone won't guarantee it, either. We will have to address questions of ownership, distribution, environmental limits, infrastructure, and who benefits from automation.

The International Labour Organization's 2025 assessment of generative AI and employment illustrates the distinction. AI has the potential to affect many occupations, but the report emphasizes that many jobs are more likely to be transformed than eliminated outright.

A future in which work becomes optional for everyone would require much more than new technology. It would require economic and social changes that allow the benefits of increased productivity to be shared widely.

But the possibility deserves serious consideration.

For the first time in history, we may be approaching a point where our technological capabilities could allow us to rethink some of the assumptions that have governed human life for centuries.

We should be asking what kind of world we want those capabilities to create.

We Can Build Something Better

I don't believe we have to accept the worst aspects of human history as permanent features of human nature.

We've changed the way we treat diseases. We've expanded access to knowledge. We've developed technologies that make communication and cooperation possible on a scale previous generations could barely imagine. We've built institutions, movements, and systems that have improved countless lives, even when those systems remain imperfect.

We can do more.

We can work toward a world in which fewer people go hungry, fewer people die from preventable diseases, fewer conflicts are fought over resources, and more people have the freedom to pursue meaningful lives.

We can make technology serve human beings rather than treating human beings as expendable parts of an economic machine.

We can disagree without dehumanizing one another. We can investigate difficult questions without automatically assuming the worst about everyone involved. We can hold institutions accountable while still recognizing genuine accomplishments when they occur.

And we can contribute to that future in small ways, even if we never get to see the entire transformation.

For me, that means making music, creating videos, sharing ideas, and building a community where independent artists can support one another. It means spending less time trying to win every old argument and more time making things that other people can enjoy, learn from, or use as inspiration.

Through @Crashout.Royalty on TikTok, I'm putting that philosophy into practice: making the art I want to make, exploring ideas that interest me, and creating opportunities for independent artists to find and support one another.

We don't all have to think alike, sound alike, or agree about everything. We can still recognize something worthwhile in one another and help it reach an audience.

We don't have to spend our entire lives fighting against what we dislike. We can also build things we want to exist.

And perhaps that's where my own journey is taking me: away from feeling responsible for exposing every problem and toward helping create something better.

The Future Is Worth Protecting

But there's one more thing we need to remember.

All this progress depends on our ability to maintain the systems that make it possible. Our medical technology, food distribution, communications, scientific research, and increasingly automated world depend on infrastructure that we can sometimes take for granted.

Consider the electrical grid.

A prolonged, widespread loss of electricity could disrupt hospitals, water treatment, refrigeration, transportation, communications, and food distribution. The longer those systems remained unavailable, the harder it could become to restore normal life. The consequences could extend far beyond the initial outage.

We could lose access to technologies that represent centuries of human progress, not because the knowledge suddenly disappeared, but because we could no longer reliably operate the systems that put that knowledge to work.

A major grid disruption wouldn't automatically erase civilization or all our accumulated knowledge. But it could cause severe harm, and a sufficiently prolonged disruption could set back essential services and technological development.

That's why preparedness matters.

We should strengthen our infrastructure, improve its resilience, develop backup systems, and make sure communities can withstand disruptions. We should prepare for emergencies without living in fear of them. We should protect the progress we've made while continuing to create something better.

The goal isn't to convince ourselves that catastrophe is inevitable. It's to recognize that the future is valuable enough to protect.

We've spent generations learning how to improve the human condition. We have opportunities our ancestors could scarcely have imagined, and we may be standing at the beginning of another extraordinary period of discovery.

Let's not take that for granted.

Let's protect our power, our knowledge, our communities, and our ability to keep moving forward.

We've come too far to be careless with the future. Let's make sure the next generation inherits a better world, not a preventable setback.

What I Want to Tell Eight-Year-Old Me

If I could sit down with the eight-year-old version of myself today, I wouldn't tell him that every theory he ever entertained was correct. I wouldn't tell him that every mystery had been solved or that every institution had finally come clean.

I'd tell him that the world is more complicated than either the believers or the skeptics sometimes make it sound.

I'd tell him that some of the questions he cared about would eventually receive serious public attention, while others would remain unresolved. I'd tell him that learning to distinguish evidence from interpretation would be just as important as learning to question accepted explanations.

But I'd also tell him something he might not expect.

I'd tell him that the world isn't as dark as he sometimes feared it was.

I'd tell him that human beings have accomplished extraordinary things, that medical science has saved countless lives, that technology has opened doors previous generations couldn't imagine, and that the future still holds possibilities worth working toward.

I'd tell him that he didn't have to spend his entire life proving other people wrong to justify his curiosity.

I'd tell him that he would grow up, make music, write, create documentaries, meet people who mattered to him, and build a life that he could genuinely appreciate. That he would have difficult periods, make mistakes, change his mind about things, and discover that some of the most important victories weren't the ones he had imagined as a child.

I'd tell him that he was allowed to be curious without being consumed by every mystery.

And I'd tell him that he could take a victory lap without needing to declare himself the winner of every argument.

Because this victory lap isn't about proving that I was right about everything.

It's about recognizing that the questions I cared about as a child helped shape the person I became. They gave me reasons to research, write, create, investigate, and keep learning. They took me down paths I never could have predicted.

I didn't get every answer. I didn't get everything I wanted. I may have been wrong about some things, and I may never know the answers to others.

But I kept going.

I got to participate in conversations I once hoped to see. I got to make things out of the subjects that fascinated me. I got to experience a world that has changed in extraordinary ways, and I still have the opportunity to contribute something to what comes next.

So, to the eight-year-old kid who wanted to know what was really happening in the world, here's what I'd say:

Look how far we've come.

Look at all the things we've learned, all the things we've created, and all the possibilities still ahead of us.

We didn't figure everything out. We didn't get every answer. But we kept going, we made it through some difficult things, and we found reasons to believe in the future.

We don't have to carry every old battle forward. We don't have to solve every mystery before we're allowed to enjoy our lives. We can keep asking questions, keep learning, and keep making things that matter.

The world isn't perfect, but it isn't finished, either.

And maybe the greatest victory isn't proving that we were right about the darkness.

Maybe it's recognizing that there's still so much good to build, so much to discover, and so much to look forward to.

We didn't get every answer, and we didn't get everything we wanted. But we got to live this life. And there's still so much left to discover.

The Kelpie: Scotland’s Shape-Shifting Water Spirit

The Kelpie: Scotland’s Shape-Shifting Water Spirit

Exploring the legends, origins, and cultural significance of one of Scotland’s most mysterious supernatural creatures

Introduction

Among the many supernatural beings found in Scottish folklore, few are as fascinating and unsettling as the kelpie. Described as a shape-shifting water spirit, the kelpie is most famously associated with the rivers, streams, pools, and lochs of Scotland. Although it can reportedly appear in human form, its most recognizable disguise is that of a beautiful horse waiting near the water’s edge.

According to traditional stories, the kelpie uses its appearance to attract unsuspecting people. Someone who mistakes the creature for an ordinary horse may approach it or climb onto its back, only to discover that the seemingly harmless animal has supernatural intentions.

The kelpie is more than simply a frightening monster in a collection of old stories. Its legends offer insight into Scottish history, traditional beliefs about the natural world, and the dangers faced by people living near unpredictable bodies of water.

Origins and Historical Background

The kelpie belongs to the folklore of Scotland, particularly traditions associated with rivers and other inland waters. Stories about water spirits developed in communities where rivers, streams, and pools were essential to everyday life but could also be dangerous.

Before modern bridges, warning signs, and reliable methods of predicting floods, crossing a river could be a serious undertaking. Strong currents, sudden rises in water levels, slippery banks, and hidden depths presented genuine risks. Folklore offered a memorable way to communicate those dangers.

The historical record provides evidence that the word kelpie has been used in Scotland for centuries. The Dictionary of the Scots Language records an early place-name containing the term from 1674, while published literary references appear during the eighteenth century. The Scottish poet Robert Burns referred to water-kelpies in his 1786 poem Address to the Deil, demonstrating that the creature was already familiar in Scottish cultural tradition.

The precise origin of the word is uncertain. One proposed explanation connects it to the Scottish Gaelic word cailpeach, meaning a young bullock or colt. This suggested connection is interesting because the kelpie is so strongly associated with the appearance of a horse, although the etymology should not be treated as conclusively established.

Appearance and Shape-Shifting Abilities

The kelpie is most commonly described as a powerful, attractive horse, frequently black but sometimes white or grey depending on the story. It may appear unusually tame, well-groomed, or inviting, standing close to a riverbank or pool as though waiting for someone to approach.

Its deceptive appearance is central to the legend. The creature does not necessarily look frightening when first encountered. Instead, its beauty and apparent friendliness make it dangerous.

In many accounts, the kelpie can transform into a human being. It may appear as a handsome man, a mysterious stranger, or another human figure capable of gaining a person's trust. Some regional tales describe unusual features that reveal its supernatural nature, such as waterweed or sand in its hair, or hooves that betray its connection to the horse.

Not every account describes the creature in exactly the same way. Folklore changes as stories pass between storytellers and communities, so details such as its color, behavior, appearance, and weaknesses can vary.

The Kelpie’s Most Famous Trick

The best-known kelpie legend follows a disturbing but recognizable pattern.

A traveler or group of children encounters an apparently harmless horse near a body of water. The animal may be unusually beautiful and may allow people to approach it without showing any fear.

When someone climbs onto its back, however, the situation changes. In many versions of the story, the rider discovers that they cannot escape. The kelpie races toward the water and plunges into the depths, dragging its victim beneath the surface.

Some tellings describe the creature as possessing a magical grip that prevents a rider from dismounting. Others portray the kelpie as a predatory being that drowns its victims and, in particularly gruesome versions, devours them.

These details vary between tales, but the underlying theme remains consistent: something that appears harmless can conceal a dangerous reality.

The stories were particularly useful as warnings for children. A beautiful horse beside a river might be an irresistible temptation, but approaching unfamiliar animals or playing near deep water could have serious consequences. The supernatural explanation made the warning memorable.

Are All Kelpies Evil?

The kelpie is generally portrayed as dangerous, but Scottish folklore is not entirely uniform.

Some stories describe encounters in which people capture or control a kelpie and force it to perform work. In one traditional account associated with Inverugie Castle near Peterhead, a man encounters a mysterious black horse, recognizes its supernatural nature, and manages to harness it. The creature is then made to carry stones for construction work.

Stories of this kind introduce a different dimension to the legend. The kelpie is not simply a monster that attacks people; it can also represent extraordinary strength, unpredictable behavior, and a potentially useful power that humans cannot easily control.

Other accounts associate water spirits with mills and water-powered machinery. Such stories reflect the importance of water to traditional Scottish agriculture and industry.

Nevertheless, the familiar image of the kelpie remains that of a deceptive and dangerous spirit whose apparent friendliness should not be trusted.

The Kelpie and Scotland’s Natural Landscape

Scotland's landscape helps explain why water spirits became such enduring figures in its folklore. The country contains numerous lochs, rivers, streams, waterfalls, and isolated pools, many surrounded by dramatic scenery and steep banks.

Water could sustain a community, provide transportation, support farming, and power machinery. It could also cause drowning, flooding, and other disasters.

Folklore frequently gives a supernatural personality to forces that people respect but cannot fully control. The kelpie can therefore be understood as a mythological expression of water's dual nature: beautiful and life-giving on one hand, dangerous and unpredictable on the other.

This interpretation does not prove that every kelpie story originated as a safety warning. Folklore serves many purposes, including entertainment, moral instruction, explanations of unusual events, and the preservation of local identity. However, Scottish heritage sources specifically recognize the warning function of kelpie stories.

The Kelpie in Literature and Modern Culture

The kelpie has survived well beyond the communities in which its stories originated. Its appearance in Scottish poetry and literature helped preserve the creature in the cultural imagination.

Robert Burns's Address to the Deil, published in 1786, mentions water-kelpies as part of a wider collection of supernatural dangers. Later writers continued to use the creature in stories, poems, and descriptions of Scotland's mysterious landscapes.

Today, the kelpie appears in books about mythology, fantasy fiction, games, films, and modern retellings of traditional legends. Its ability to change shape makes it particularly suitable for stories involving deception, transformation, and the uncertain boundary between the familiar and the supernatural.

One of Scotland's most striking modern tributes is The Kelpies, two enormous horse-head sculptures near Falkirk. Designed by sculptor Andy Scott and opened in 2014, the sculptures stand approximately 30 metres (about 100 feet) tall.

The sculptures draw inspiration from the country's working horses, industrial heritage, and the mythology of the kelpie. They are artistic interpretations rather than evidence that the supernatural creature exists, but they demonstrate how a centuries-old legend can continue to influence modern Scottish identity.

Kelpie or Water Horse? An Important Distinction

The term kelpie is sometimes used broadly for supernatural water horses, but Scottish traditions contain related creatures and regional variations that should not automatically be treated as identical.

The Gaelic water horse, known as the each-uisge, is particularly associated in many accounts with lochs and other larger bodies of water. Kelpies are often associated with rivers, streams, and pools, especially in Lowland Scottish traditions.

However, the distinction is not absolute. Historical writers and storytellers have sometimes used the names interchangeably, and local traditions overlap.

This variation illustrates an important principle when studying mythology: supernatural beings rarely have one universally agreed description. Their identities develop through oral storytelling, regional customs, literature, and the interpretations of later writers.

What Can We Conclude About the Kelpie?

There is no established scientific evidence that shape-shifting water spirits exist as described in Scottish legends. The historical evidence instead documents the kelpie as a longstanding part of Scotland's folklore and cultural imagination.

That does not make the subject unimportant. Folklore provides a window into the concerns, values, and creativity of earlier communities. The kelpie's story combines the beauty of Scotland's waterways with a warning about their dangers, while its ability to change shape gives the legend an enduring element of mystery.

The creature also demonstrates how stories evolve. A frightening spirit associated with rivers and drowning has become a recognizable symbol of Scottish heritage, inspiring poetry, scholarship, art, and major public sculptures.

Conclusion

The kelpie remains one of Scotland's most memorable legendary creatures because its story brings together mystery, natural beauty, and danger. Whether appearing as a magnificent horse or a mysterious human stranger, it represents the unsettling possibility that appearances can be deceiving.

Its legends have endured for centuries, moving from local storytelling into literature and modern public art. They remind us that folklore is not merely a collection of strange tales. It is also a record of how communities understood their surroundings, communicated warnings, and transformed the mysteries of everyday life into stories that could survive across generations.

The kelpie may belong to the supernatural world of Scottish legend, but its cultural legacy is very real.

Missing/Killed UAP Scientists/Military Info Omits Pattern of Harassment/Murder of Citizens, Researchers & Activists---Exposing Hidden Spider In Web Named Democide---Debunking Arguments Demolished Like a DEW Attack!

Disclaimer: For entertainment purposes only! What the hell do I know anyway?! I'm a clown who raps. 


Missing/Killed UAP Scientists/Military Info Omits Pattern of Harassment/Murder of Citizens, Researchers & Activists---Exposing Hidden Spider In Web Named Democide---Debunking Arguments Demolished Like a DEW Attack!

Please don't let this content upset you. There is more good in the world than bad. Please share this page, but also check out the positive efforts to make the world a better place I've featured at the bottom of the page and make some of your own too. 😁

I was inspired to put this archive of info together due to the reporting I've seen about these recently missing scientists and omitting the facts highly indicating that it isn't just high level individuals that are being harassed and possibly murdered, but also people you might not expect. But what can be 100 percent proven, you ask?

For starters, the UFO foundation the claims of missing and dead scientists in relation to UFOs is built upon is a sturdy foundation, as opposed to a one of sand. Which we were once widely led to believe was the case by the status quo/establishment defender types out there.  

The UFO/non-human topic has been testified to as reality by an American intelligence officer via official approval during congressional testimony while under oath while he revealed verified  government crash retival programs.   

 AI Overview 


This is further supported by reporting first broke uncharacteristically by the NY Times about hard evidence captured by military fighter jets and ground radar systems that government cannot explain as being anything conventional, but is readily explained by the other newer evidence it now  supports. 

Now FOX News is reporting in all seriousness on TV about Grusch's most recent claims that people within the retrieval program came upon an unexpected scene where there were witnesses to an apparent aftermath of a fight between classic gray beings that were decreased and reptilian humanoids that then killed a human, after which military personnel ended up killing some of the reptilians. 

See the news report video yourself...

Some people can take never a win and see everything as deception. Sorry, I've researched this material for too long to doubt my self now. Funny how Grusch made his recent revelation on Joe Rogan's show. Oh, how far we've come since I posted this over 11 years ago. 


First off, it is completely beyond doubt that this case includes evidentiary points that at one time not so long ago. didn't exist. These new developments prove that those who dismissed these topics were defending official narratives that are now more in line with the so-called conspiracy nuts of the world. Maybe the "white hats" have taken some control? 

It's almost like this info from Gemini AI is correct or something and people started to notice. 

"Individuals with psychopathic traits do frequently gravitate toward positions of power, including roles in political leadership, government, and corporate hierarchies. Psychological research and political theory frequently discuss this phenomenon under terms like pathocracy—a system where a small minority of individuals with personality disorders control the majority."

Hence, hand waving enused by many casual observers making a priori assumptions, who had their conclusions of "Kookery" bolsteted by the status quo in almost every way. 

From official denials to lack of mainstream coverage, to debunker proclamations of victory, to pop culture mockery. They saw to it that anything that might suggest these institutions were dead wrong was dead on arrival to deaf ears, blind eyes, and unprying hands. Now, some of what was once used to dismiss things has reversed.

Official denials became congressional testimony paired with hard evidence in the form of officially sanctioned videos and military radar data. 

Debunkers had to go from declaring victory over one type opponent to fighting a whole gang of new ones. 

Let's compare and contrast.

The initial foe.

Debunkers vs The UFO Menace - Jerome Clark or, Is Ufology Tantamount to Communism? by Jerome Clark (written in 1992)

Well, damn. The praise in those in those days, was how shall we say, a bit less. 

The UFOlogist 

Volunteer, non expert pedigree, only trained by others like them. 

Culturally mocked thus unpopular. Maginalized civilians, with no official backing. 

Has no hard evidence his critics couldn't successfully characterize as soft with softball questions from mainstream media. 

With no whistle blowers allies that couldn't be dismissed as financially motivated or seeking attention. Afterall, they were getting no positive attention from anyone in government or media.

The New Opponent AKA the Boot Still Covered In Their Spit. 

Went from defending their denials to insulting their skills with smiles. 

How Can Highly Trained Military Pilots Possibly Misinterpret Things They See?


Who needs to debate conspiracy theorists with friends like this! 😂 

He debated me anyway. It seemingly didn't go well for him...

Reviews of my interview, JM Talboo, with Mick West--- Pay close attention kiddos, I trick Mick into admitting conspiracies conducted by powerful people is the norm and not an aberration!
https://mindtreasury.blogspot.com/2023/09/reviews-of-my-interview-jm-talboo-with.html

I proposed a UFO debate. He declined as he was supposedly busy. He didn't debate the people here either...



Debunking the Debunkers: Debunking Mick West on Hulsey WTC 7 Report - NIST vs. Reality vs. Hulsey
https://911debunkers.blogspot.com/2019/09/debunking-mick-west-on-hulsey-wtc-7.html

But I Digress... 

The New Opponent AKA the Old Boss

Military expert fighter pilots trained on what's potentially odd in the sky and trained observerers in general. 

Culturally thanked for their service.
Popular. Shown gratitude even when war in unpopular. 

Top Gun turned top opp!

Because the new breed doesn't have taped up lips.  

Intelligence officer whistleblower being allowed to testify before congress revealing the existence of few lil things under oath...

While sworn in he was fielding the hardest of questions unlike the debunker's old lap dogs who used kid gloves. 

Once propped up by media outlets while acting as the debunker's passive snickering friend, now they have turned to an active foe. 

They no are longer in any way guaranteed to lend credibility, support, and/or ammunition, but rather now often favor the cold shoulder to the dogmatic naysayers.

The original ufolo-foes are now allies  helping the lamestream become part of the team and be journalists again teaching them slowly to do formerly strictly Ufologist type research.


The subject at the heart of all the claims about the missing and dead scientists and military brass isn't  debunked, mocked, or fringe anymore in the way it used to be in the least. 

That is proven IMHO and documents are being released as well, but rarely covered in the slightly less gut-wreatching vomitstream media. They are doing better, but sensationalism often obscures real research that requires reading!

Now we will also unquestionably prove all of the same points regarding directed energy weapons AKA DEWs and them being used against civilians that were just proved about the UFO topic.

Note, I didn't say all my conclusions are correct or that all my dots paint the picture I think they do. But if they don't it sure would be odd that my conspiricist ilk keeps proving ourselves ahead of the curve, but the goalposts for our earned respect seems to always move and it's a well-known logical fallacy, a form of flawed argumentation, that these pseudo-skeptics purportedly hate in principal, but yet love to use when it fits their needs... Principles for thee not me. It's nothing new.

https://911debunkers.blogspot.com/2010/01/1000-architectural-and-engineering.html

First, it's note worthy that one of the missing UFO scientists is mentioned the very beginning of the presentation below, which we'll revisit later in this infowar munitions cache.  

Watch "Missing Scientists, UFO Files and The 2027 Warning" on YouTube
https://youtu.be/1NcocRvrvSE?is=z2XpZPiqrovDzIaY 

"U.S. propulsion researcher Amy Eskridge claimed she was targeted and hit by a directed energy weapon inside her Alabama home before she died by suicide on June 11, 2022."

DEWs used to be treated as nearly science fiction even as recently as 2022, as did claims about them being used on people, much less US civilians. But official coverups and pretty much everything else has switched up much like how I just demonstrated with UFOs and aliens. The tables have turned in the conspiracy theorist's favor. 


Regarding DEWs, in 2022, we were still hearing from the mainstream that "they still exist at the periphery of both theoretical and practical battlefield application."

While claims from researchers about energy weapons being used on civilians go back to 1995! Just wait until after that when you see what mainstream news is reporting on now. It's all going to feel very familiar. 

DIRECTED-ENERGY WEAPONS: FROM THE FRINGE TO MAINSTREAM INVESTIGATIVE REPORTING

The Havana syndrome controversy is another important piece of this puzzle. For years, American diplomats, intelligence officers, and other government personnel have reported unusual neurological symptoms and other health problems that some believe may have resulted from exposure to directed-energy weapons or other novel technologies.

Let's establish something right up front: these reports are not simply coming from stereotypical internet conspiracy theorists wearing tinfoil hats. Some of the people reporting these experiences were members of the U.S. government's own diplomatic and intelligence apparatus. Furthermore, the possibility of foreign adversaries using novel weapons against at least some of these individuals has been taken seriously by journalists, researchers, and elected officials with intelligence oversight responsibilities.

In 2020, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine published an assessment that identified pulsed radio-frequency energy as the most plausible mechanism among those considered for certain distinctive symptoms reported by some personnel. That finding did not establish that a weapon caused every case, but it demonstrated that the possibility was being examined by a respected scientific institution rather than dismissed out of hand.

The debate has continued within the government itself. In December 2024, Representative Rick Crawford released an interim report arguing that a foreign adversary was increasingly likely to be responsible for some anomalous health incidents. In January 2025, the intelligence community's updated assessment reached a largely skeptical conclusion about foreign-adversary involvement in most cases, while two components assessed that there was roughly an even chance a foreign actor had used or developed a novel weapon capable of harming a small, undetermined subset of those affected. Members of Congress subsequently challenged aspects of the intelligence community's conclusions and handling of the issue.

Meanwhile, investigative journalists have continued examining the allegations. CBS's 60 Minutes investigated the possibility of an invisible weapon targeting American diplomats, and journalist Catherine Herridge published reporting challenging the prevailing official assessment. The existence of disagreement does not establish that every allegation is true. It does establish that the subject has attracted serious investigative attention and debate among people working within, reporting on, and overseeing the institutions involved.

And here's a historical reminder for anyone tempted to assume that official skepticism automatically settles a question: Agent Orange.

The toxic effects of Agent Orange and its association with serious illnesses became the subject of years of controversy, scientific investigation, disputes over responsibility, and battles for recognition and compensation. The fact that authorities disputed, minimized, or failed to fully acknowledge harms at particular points in time did not mean those harms were imaginary. Nor does that history prove that every modern allegation of technological abuse is true. It demonstrates something much simpler: official disagreement is not the same thing as definitive disproof.

Now let's return to the argument that concerns us here.

The claim that directed-energy weapons and alleged technological attacks against human beings are exclusively a fringe subject is debunked by the very existence of this controversy. Government personnel have reported anomalous health incidents. Scientific institutions have investigated possible mechanisms. Mainstream news organizations have reported on the allegations. Members of Congress have challenged official assessments. And competing conclusions have emerged from within the government itself.

Read that again: THE GOVERNMENT IS PART OF THE STORY FROM THE BEGINNING.

These are not merely claims circulating in obscure corners of the internet. They concern allegations involving government employees, intelligence agencies, scientific assessments, congressional investigations, and mainstream investigative journalism. The government is not a single person speaking with one unquestionable voice, and disagreement within its institutions is itself part of the documented record.

Does all this prove that every reported incident was a directed-energy attack? No. Does it prove that every person who believes they have been targeted is correct? No. Neither conclusion is necessary to establish the point being made here.

The blanket characterization of this entire subject as fringe has been debunked. Period.

And to the debunkers who continue treating the mere discussion of these possibilities as proof of irrationality: when government personnel are reporting these experiences, members of Congress are questioning official conclusions, and mainstream journalists are investigating the allegations, perhaps it's time to retire the tinfoil-hat routine.

You can dispute a particular allegation. You can challenge a source. You can argue that an explanation has not been established by the available evidence. Those are legitimate parts of an investigation.

But declaring an entire subject fringe does not debunk the subject. It avoids engaging with the evidence.

So, congratulations to the debunkers: in their rush to debunk the possibility that this subject deserves serious consideration, they have managed to debunk their own blanket characterization of it as fringe.

THE DEBUNKERS ARE DEBUNKED ON THAT POINT.

The questions surrounding directed-energy weapons, anomalous health incidents, and potential technological abuse remain contested. But whether this is a subject that has entered mainstream investigative and governmental discussion is no longer a serious question.

IT HAS.

And that is precisely why the allegations involving ordinary citizens, independent researchers, activists, and other people outside the government deserve to be examined on their individual evidence rather than automatically dismissed through a stereotype.

GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS CHALLENGE THE OFFICIAL ACCOUNT OF HAVANA SYNDROME

The debate over alleged directed-energy attacks is not confined to independent journalists, researchers, or people who identify as targeted individuals. Members of the U.S. Congress have also publicly challenged intelligence assessments that largely rejected foreign-adversary involvement in Havana syndrome cases.

On December 5, 2024, Representative Rick Crawford, then chairman of the House Intelligence Committee's CIA Subcommittee, released an interim report arguing that a foreign adversary was increasingly likely to be responsible for some reported anomalous health incidents. House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner explicitly endorsed that conclusion, stating that he agreed foreign adversaries were likely responsible for some cases.

In January 2025, Turner and Crawford again challenged the intelligence community's assessment, arguing that the conclusions failed to adequately account for evidence concerning possible foreign involvement. Their statements demonstrate that the interpretation of these incidents has been disputed within the U.S. government itself.

In January 2026, Representative Andrew Garbarino and other members of the House Homeland Security Committee sought answers about reports that the U.S. government had acquired a device potentially connected to Havana syndrome. Their inquiry addressed the device's acquisition, testing, and possible relevance to the investigation.

These developments are important because they establish that concerns about possible directed-energy attacks have reached congressional investigations and official government debate. They also demonstrate that government officials have disagreed over whether the reported injuries could have resulted from a weapon.

The existence of these disagreements does not establish the cause of every reported incident. However, the subject cannot accurately be described as one discussed exclusively by fringe commentators when members of Congress are publicly investigating the allegations, challenging intelligence assessments, and demanding further answers.

Are directed energy weapons being used on civilian populations to manipulate people’s thoughts and behaviour? - The Expose
https://expose-news.com/2024/09/19/are-directed-energy-weapons-being-used/ 

Excerpt:

In the year 2000, the Scientific and Technological Options Assessment (“STOA”) panel of the European Parliament published a study entitled ‘Crowd Control Technologies’ which wrote:

In October 1999 NATO announced a new policy on non-lethal weapons and their place in allied arsenals… The most controversial non-lethal crowd control and anti-materiel technology proposed by the US are so-called Radio Frequency or Directed Energy Weapons that can allegedly manipulate human behaviour in a variety of unusual ways… the greatest concern is with systems which can directly interact with the human nervous system… The research undertaken to date both in the US and in Russia can be divided into two related areas: (i) individual mind control and (ii) crowd control.

Crowd Control Technologies (An appraisal of technologies for political control) Final Study, Working document for the STOA Panel, June 2000, pg. liii

Directed energy system was further defined in the technical annexe as a “directed energy weapon system designed to match radio frequency source to interfere with human brain activity at the synapse level,” with the note: “Highly classified programme and hard data is difficult to access” (pg. 67).

In the 1990s, the USA were constructing the radar system HAARP, which according to the book by Nick Begich and Jeanne Maning ‘Angels Don’t Play This HAARP’, can be used to control the activity of human brains in large areas of the planet.

After the publication of the book,  the European Parliament held a special hearing, where the co-author of the book Nick Begich was testifying. As a result of his testimony the European Parliament adopted a resolution, where it called “for an international convention introducing a global ban on all developments and deployments of weapons which might enable any form of manipulation of human beings” (paragraph 30). Against possible expectations, the European media did not publish and explain this call. The evident reason was that weapon systems “designed to match radio frequency source to interfere with human brain activity at synapse level” were “highly classified” or in other words qualified as information related to national defence.

"The event appears to be the first publicly known instance of a Pentagon chief personally watching such weapons being fired, Laser Wars reported."

Pair this with Emmy Award winning investigative journalist and former CBS News correspondent, Catherine Herridge, being featured on TV news claiming without push back that her gathering and examination of evidence indicates, despite status quo claims to the contrary, that civilians are being targeted domestically. 

This presentation features Herridge as being important, but also involved for whatever reason in what is called in activist circled a "limited hangout." Essentially she only is giving half the story.

The video features a talk by this wacko... 🤣

"Dr. James Giordano, he is a prominent American neuroscientist, neuroethicist, and national security expert. He currently serves as a director and fellow focusing on disruptive technology and future warfare. His work prominently examines the concept of a "neurobioeconomy" and the ethical and tactical implications of neurotechnology in modern global conflict."

To make it simple, he asserts with his expertise and documentation that, in no uncertain terms, these type of weapons can be designed to not just physically attack people, but literally interfere with the brain in such a way as to attempt to control someone's thoughts and more...

"I can disrupt an individual from the level of their system and disrupt individuals on a variety of levels, from individuals all the way up to the social fabric. Target a specific individual, change or eliminate that individual with very little attribution or trace, …” – Dr. James Giordano, DARPA Neurologist/Weapons Expert, Presentation at the Modern War Institute

Finally, further pair that with older conspiracy research and whistleblowers and you've got a lot more proof that conspiracy theorists were ahead of their time on the related topics of DEWs and Targeted Individuals, yet again, as demonstrated above with UFOs/aliens.


It's also self evident that the reported numbers of these abuses are either extremely widespread, or at minimum a major factor in people who have become aware of the issue suffering paranoid delusions that they too are being targeted. Thousands of professionally documented alleged victims are discussed in the presentation below, who are noted to be highly educated in significant amount. 

Conspiracy Theory With Jesse Ventura 2012 (S03E07 Brain Invaders)
https://ok.ru/video/1962022472344 

"Ventura interviews a group of so-called "targeted individuals" (or "TIs") – people who claim that they are being manipulated and tortured by mind-control signals after they have spoken out against the government. He further looks into the technology that could be behind these attacks, such as microwave transmitting GWEN towers, and meets with insiders who claim to have worked on and and developed the technology for the government that began with Project MKUltra."


Watch "Targeted Individuals Dr Robert Duncan and Jesse Ventura" on YouTube
https://youtube.com/shorts/ZR54fKfbQ3M?is=kdO7sQNyldzIzCUY 

Duncan is presented as a "mind control expert." He stated that "he's impowered the dark side" with his "work on projects for the CIA, Justice Department, and Defense of Defenseand." He says "the government is using voice of God weapons" responsible for reports of "voices in the head" by targeted individuals and unequivocally says "the government is doing this to them." 

A version of this technology is demonstrated to be real to Ventura by Dr. Nick Begich during his report. Music is beamed into his brain via electrodes on the neck totally bypassing the ears. 

Jesse Ventura tests V2K (voice to skull) on himself
https://www.bitchute.com/video/eR26N01KwJHJ/ 

"With #V2K, the physical electrodes are replaced with powerful directed remote microwaves that penetrate the skin and hit the same target region - the head/skull. Once weaponized with the appropriate equipment - these energy waves (microwaves) can travel relatively long distances and even pass through walls."

"Could the so-called crazies in the tin-foil hats be on to something? Targeted individuals, or TIs, claim that the government is harassing - even torturing - them by sending microwave signals into their brains and bodies to drive them to despair. It's not an isolated case, but thousands of people across the country experiencing the exact same symptoms, all of which began after speaking out against the powers that be. Jesse knows that they aren't nuts - but could it be too late to stop these "voice of God" weapons from turning the population into mindless zombies?"


Now ask yourself, what else are conspiracy researchers right about?
Because duh-bunk-turds don't see the scoreboard for what it is, but the zeitgeist knows.  

And that brings us right back to the debunkers' M.O.: dismiss the people raising the questions by labeling them fringe, then act as though labeling the people has debunked the evidence. But when the subject involves government personnel, congressional disagreements, scientific assessments, and mainstream investigative reporting, that routine falls apart. And when the same blanket dismissal is applied to ordinary citizens, independent researchers, and activists, the question becomes why their allegations should be dismissed by stereotype rather than examined on their individual merits.

YOU CANNOT DEBUNK A CLAIM SIMPLY BY DECLARING THE PERSON MAKING IT FRINGE. THAT ISN'T DEBUNKING. IT'S DISMISSAL DRESSED UP AS INVESTIGATION.

The merits of the individual pieces of evidence pointed to from here on out are largely not examined by individual merit, but metaphorically speaking collectively akin to the strands of a spider web. 

Each strand being, but a piece of bigger picture of a web that remains if knocked down. The voluminous nature of said strands proves the spider web exists unless enough are knocked down that it falls and can no longer be seen from loss of integrity. 

The UFO material is now just part of the web, which when viewed in this way is a more overencompassing concept not dependent on that original material. 

The web is representative of the seemingly simple idea that government elements sometime harasses and murder people unjustly, especially when they stick their noses in the wrong places too deeply. The UFO material just brought this well supported web back into too narrow of a scope, either truly or falsely and  intentionally or unintentionally, hiding the spider in the web named... Democide!   

Watch "DEMOCIDE- THE #1 CAUSE OF DEATH WORLDWIDE" on YouTube

"Democide, or populicide, is "the intentional killing of an unarmed or disarmed person by government agents acting in their authoritative capacity and pursuant to government policy or high command."

Of course it stands to reason that  those willing to kill you will easily be willing to mock and harass you first. History shows that this is usually where it starts before it gets progressively worse.

As well as debated about whether he actually ended his own life, was murdered, or somehow driven to di so against his will via technology akin to those discussed here.

"Experts' findings, concludes that the so-called "hack" was actually an inside job by someone with internal access to the DNC's computer network. In other words, the DNC has (or had) a leak"

A few screenshots proving the premise in the headline of this article...


Before harrasement or murder it always starts with mockery. 

In gathering these screenshots, material I had previously posted material I posted inadvertently showed up in one of them. Well, damn!

That being said, I want it known that I've done my fair share of activism, and I've experienced things akin to those described by some of the individuals whose accounts are detailed at the links accompanying these screenshots.

A few striking examples come to mind.
I've witnessed UFOs on several occasions, always with witnesses.

I've been involved in the effort to have chemical engineer Mark Basile conduct further testing on materials he believed he'd found in World Trade Center dust that indicated the possible use of explosives. At one point, I actually had vials of World Trade Center dust sent to me by Basile.

I subsequently sent those samples to another researcher who claimed that the researchers investigating nanothermite were disinformation agents. This individual argued that conventional explosives, rather than nanothermite, were responsible.

While people on the nanothermite side were accusing this researcher of being a disinformation agent, he was making similar accusations against them. I was trying to help both sides because I wanted the truth, not a predetermined conclusion.

The samples were sent with the understanding that testing would be conducted and that the materials would be returned to me. No testing was ever completed, and eventually, the provenance of the samples was called into question, despite the extensive information that had been provided about their origins.

Yes, it's possible that the samples could have been contaminated or that their contents might not have been what they were represented to be. That's precisely why testing would have been useful. The chemical composition of World Trade Center dust has been extensively studied, and appropriate testing could have helped determine what the samples contained.

But no tests were performed.

That alone was troubling enough. What made the situation more concerning to me was that, despite repeated requests, the samples were never returned. I made multiple pleas for their return, including public requests in which I provided my address so the materials could be sent back to me.

I still have questions about what happened to those samples and why they were never returned.

Another experience involved an individual who presented himself as a fellow 9/11 activist. During a dinner meeting, he repeatedly fumbled with a bag containing something that looked to both my wife and me like it might have been a recording device. He also repeatedly tried to get me to agree that violence was the answer to the 9/11 issue. I refused, because I don't believe violence is the answer. He said he would stay in contact but never did. I found the experience suspicious.

My friend Janice Matthews, associated with 911Truth.org, also experienced some strange incidents. On one occasion, an apparent repairman showed up at her house and was working at her electrical box despite there being no scheduled work. When she questioned what he was doing, he said he would get the paperwork, got into his car, and drove away. These are the circumstances as they were described to me, and I found them concerning.

On the subject of public ridicule, I was a steering committee member of 911Truth.org. It's entirely possible that when South Park mocked 9/11 truth activism, they were mocking an organization of which I was a member, and perhaps people like me.

These are only a few examples. I've had other experiences that I won't detail here.

So let it be known, for whatever it's worth. It doesn't seem to accomplish much these days, but I believe it's worth making the effort.

I am not suicidal. I will never kill myself, and I will never kill anyone else. If you ever hear a story claiming otherwise, don't automatically believe it. Look at the evidence and ask questions.

Have a good day, y'all. Don't live in fear. We're all going to die one day anyway, so try to be joyful, be happy, and make others joyful and happy while we're here.

Don't live in fear. Live your life. Seek the truth. And treat one another with humanity.
