Wanna shout out @agorightly.bsky.social's documentary adaptation of his book Saucers, Spooks and Kooks. It's one of the best summations of the UFOs-as-disinformation thesis I've seen.

Sensational UFO narratives & storylines are attractive. But then a small percentage of us become more skeptical… we begin to notice poor research practices and activities being called 'scientific investigation' which, by definition, are simply not. — @jackbrewer.bsky.social

Standards of evidence are important because they’re how we systematically compile facts. We may then speculate or rigorously debate what facts indicate, but if we have no means for establishing reliable evidence, it is all subject to becoming meaningless conjecture.
