UFO: Being Informed Is Not Mania!

If it’s wrong to disparage people with mental health, why are journalist utilizing mental health stigma to decrease public awareness of their skies?

There are journalist who simply don’t understand the world they live in. ‘UFOs are real’ means something, and suggesting it is a mental health problem is wrong. Marina Koren, the Atlantic, Marianne Levine, Daniella Diaz and Burgess Everett, Politco are not only wrong in their articles and headline grabbers, they undermine national security and public awareness by pushing an outdated meme: don’t look up.

99 white balloons?

A New Age of UFO Mania, by Marina Koren is wrong on many levels. One, it’s not new. Two, the realization that the government has been interested in UFOs for 75 years while lying to everyone, including her and her precious journal, while not one mainstream journalist before Leslie Kean ever pushed back on the rhetoric to the degree that it changed the world- that is insanity, by definition. So, when the public is suddenly informed that they aren’t crazy, by the very people calling them crazy, the US Government, then Koren is out of line suggesting this is a Bipolar phase of mental health.
