Introduction

This is a great conversation between host Alex Tsakiris and Richard Dolan. Since some of the most interesting and thoughtful topics in the interview are not always on the UFO subject, I highly recommend everyone to listen to the conversation in its entirety. You can find a transcript of the conversation on the following link: https://skeptiko.com/richard-dolan-ufo-disclosure-toothpaste-out-of-the-tube-438/.

While they talk about different UFO subjects, the conversation between Tsakiris and Dolan mostly revolves around the events following the To The Stars Academy of Arts and Sciences (TTSA) press conference in October 2017.Was it the beginning of a benign disclosure of the truth of the UFO phenomena, or was it a rollout of a Psyop? Or is something else going on? And what are the arguments for or against those different points of view?

So in the following,  I will reflect upon the principal topic of disclosure or Psyop. Hopefully, I can add something new to Dolan and Tsakiris' conversation about the major topic.My comments and reflections come in Part 2  and Part 3.

What is the lesson of prof. Diana W Pasulka's Twitter-"controversy"?

In the following, I am presuming that the reader is familiar with the professor in religious studies, Diana Walsh Pasulka, her first and latest book on the UFO phenomena, American Cosmic, and how the content of that book has reverberated through the ufo community. In case you are not familiar with prof. Pasulka or her book, you can go to her American Cosmic website here.

So, what is the "Twitter controversy" the title of this post refers to? Again, I will presume that most of the readers of this post are familiar with the tweets that prof. Pasulka shared on January 11, 2020. My purpose with this post is neither to reproduce those tweets nor analyse their content verbatim.

Amendment, 2020-01-12: Today, on January 12, 2020,  several of prof. Pasulka's trusted friends reported that her Twitter account was hacked. Not any of the tweets which caused "controversy" on January 11, 2020, were neither written nor published by prof. Pasulka. I believe that to be the case, and I hope she is alright.
