This just gave me the chills. Firsthand knowledge of "love bombing" the charm exuding from every pore, whilst control over a livelyhood, a gentle soul is destroyed by utter malevolence.
Rejection sours an inner violence unknown to the sane. Lies knitted together to cover the plotting. A life utterly destroyed whilst receiving validation from all sides.

Aye, that is some wisdom and quite salient in retrospect. But if you had traveled the world, run a couple businesses and were in your 50's never having known this type of evil and feeling kinda savvy its a shockwave. And even then it was spread out over time... I had to learn that predators of all kinds are sooo patient. They groom insidiously, a tiny chip of you here, then there. Unnoticeable until the trap is sprung. This one was so deft at covering tracks and avoiding anything evidential that a court of law might consider. Diabolical.
No disagreement in principle, 86, but it is the faint of heart that suffer the most from exposure to malevolence. We all need to understand "defense against the dark arts," but the faint of heart have an even greater need to adopt defensive mechanisms.
"It will either make you stronger and wiser, or break you."
True, also.
When we stare into that abyss, it stares back into us. Those who are broken by that gaze are doomed to accept the evil done to them, often becoming nihilistic and in turn expressing aspects of that malevolence themselves, "going over to the dark side." Others live in denial, unable to face and overcome what they are too fearful to confront directly.
One of the strengths gained by confronting malevolence, is compassion for those unable to face that confrontation. It is a gaining of strength because it makes the confrontation more meaningful because we realize that we are not struggling with evil entirely for our own personal protection.
The war against evil is never entirely won; it is an eternal series of battles that are individually either won or lost. This is the "wiser" part, a cruel wisdom indeed, one that cannot be obtained without a corresponding increase in strength.
And treating ourselves with a bit of compassion during our struggles, is not amiss.
It immediately came to mind when you spoke of both scenarios. Serling was a genius & ahead of his time with so many episodes re the hubris & fallibility of mankind
Serling was actively writing for Twilight Zone and other shows and movies in the 1950s. Thus he could have been exposed to Hubbard's work, which would have included a bunch of his findings about ET activities.
I watched a recent video by Tim Alberino, who I like. He pointed out that the Bible isn't exclusively against spirits, but advises to TEST the spirits. The early Christians engaged in "spirit"-ual practices, as shown in some of Paul's letters. The test is whether their fruits align with God's will or Satan's.
This got me thinking about the wisdom of old folktales, particularly the themes of engaging with evil. Most all stories of demons and other evil entities always make it clear that evil must be invited in- it cannot cross the threshold except by invitation.
I've never gotten into the UFO stuff, but quite a few years ago I happened to see part of a video with Greer. He gave me the creeps in a way I can't really describe. He's a grifter, but I think he's also a useful idiot or servant of some real evil- either human, paranormal or both.
If there isn’t inherent nefarious malevolence possible, you can be sure some lame brain military personnel shooting them out of the air to capture their technology would invoke some hard feelings.
I once watched a video of an encounter between members of two different tribes in the Amazon. The two groups were reaching out to each other in terror, holding out gifts from cover, shaking, but hoping to trade. Hoping to create mutual benefit while fearing tricks/sneak attacks. But they were chosing to try to make it work.
It seems that the situation between earthlings and extraterrestrial visitors would be similar, except that the visitors would probably have a great technological advantage at the “meat level” where bodies feel physical threats as the first order of business to handle in an encounter. They would hopefully have developed highly also at the “soul” level. Maybe not, but I think they would respect evidence that the ones they were encountering had mastered and overcome the fear reflex. Maybe not. I guess the real question is, in all the excitement of a close encounter of the third kind, “Do you feel lucky, punk?”
I might add that "mastery of the fear reflex" is distinct from a strange muting or perhaps even absence of it.
I met a retired soldier two days ago who I could tell instinctively was dauntless. His wife was a gem, and he volunteered driving rural seniors to medical appointments.
I've also met an ex-military sniper who was trying to get back into the service because he never got an opportunity to kill someone. It bears noting that the former was of a much higher rank. It would keep me up at night if it was the other way around.
As above, so below. We need to discernment about anyone we invite into our lives, including supernatural beings.
Living in a society disconnected from the spiritual world has led to a commodification of spirituality and spiritual entities. We're seeing Gurupreneurs channeling spiritual psychopaths and selling those experiences like luxury items.
ETs, though, aren't supernatural. They just have better technology than we do. The application of electronics to the problem of controlling or breaking the human mind is extensive, and they know much more about that than we do.
That depends on how you define supernatural. For me it simply means above the known natural order, which includes matter, life, and humans. I think that to say they “just” have better tech is an assumption. It’s possible there is a level above nature that also has technology.
I had an X argument this morning with a New Age UFO account arguing the same things. It’s a religion for them. It doesn’t matter what evidence of vileness emerges, we just don’t understand their higher purpose.
An ecological view is the correct one to take- certainly, the inhabitants of the cosmoes are going to be as widely varied and variable as the species we find on this planet- as well as their intentions.
claiming their all 'love and light' is absurd.
as to malevolent et's playing anglerfish
a certain number of folk might be fooled by such a thing- but there's a specific depth/frequency to 'love/benevolence' that I don't think can be truly faked - To those with little experience or lack of discernment, perhaps- in the way that projecting a vibe of 'opium' might confuse some as the 'white light', or that the sickly-sweet 'all is love and light' new age stuff does
then again, I've woke up to beings that radiated pure-otherness- in a way that caused me to react with the deepest revulsion I've ever felt- raising alarm bells of malevolent- enemy....
the interesting thing with those experiences is not that they tried to convince me they were 'of the light' but rather that they started spamming the 'everything is ok, nothing to see here, go back to sleep' hypnosis ray-
which as it is, requires a immense force of will to break out of, especially when it's the middle of the night.
I'm a bit more concerned with greer's analysis pushing folks to accept total-benevolence once whatever 'craft' start showing up that the current psyop is setting us up for
Great article my bro. So what or who is Greer? The dude I met in 2008 in Glendale CA was such a good person and not remotely like the *dude* impersonating him now. We are truly in strange times.
Greer has been a New Ager into UFO disclosure since at least 1990. You probably know he was trained as an MD and did emergency medicine. But he also had his own contact experiences, which is probably what got him into this whole mess. He is somewhat exceptional for his closeness to military people and some politicians. How did he get access to those people? I think the CIA has been onto him since he started talking about "hidden technologies," though he has had ongoing disputes with them. He has gotten crustier with age. I stopped following him around 2018 and am a little surprised to see him still active. He is a year younger than I am.
Thanks, Harrison. Great post. RepTim Burke issued some cautionary concern stating that some in the whistleblower community are at risk of demonic possession. I wonder if he was prompted by Barber’s description of his euphoric encounter discussed in his interview with
Excellent well written article. Quote: "They are effective because they convince others that they are not malevolent. They wear a mask." Deception.
Regarding Greer, I agree. He seems to have played the role of insider and mouthpiece to create a narrative and maintain it for decades that has played the audience.
Regarding human beings. For many, our makeup seems to include an innocience and naivete that makes it easy for evil to manipulate.
Brilliantly simplified so that anybody ought to be able to understand it. Been saying it for years!
Good to see Laura chime in here!

There is no recovery that I can see.
Those of us who dare to explore the study of evil will have to face that abyss as best you can.
It's not for the faint of heart. It will either make you stronger and wiser, or break you.
It is real, and we are the prey of those predators, so recognize and be ready for it.
Aye, that is some wisdom and quite salient in retrospect. But if you had traveled the world, run a couple businesses and were in your 50's never having known this type of evil and feeling kinda savvy its a shockwave.

Very well said.
Knowing who the enemy is when we can recognize the "dark triad" for what they are. Recognizing and avoiding them is our strength and wisdom.
We don't need or want to know what made them the way they are since that is the abyss we need to avoid. At least for me.
However, the dark triad does want to kill their prey, so self defense will eventually be needed, when it is time to kill them or to be killed by them?
Theoretically, in a totally chaotic mayhem situation, everyone could become a predator for survival, but we are hoping it doesn't come to that.
Twilight Zone’s 1962 “To Serve Man” showcases human naïveté & ET deviousness….
Great example.
It immediately came to mind when you spoke of both scenarios. Serling was a genius & ahead of his time with so many episodes re the hubris & fallibility of mankind
Serling was actively writing for Twilight Zone and other shows and movies in the 1950s. Thus he could have been exposed to Hubbard's work, which would have included a bunch of his findings about ET activities.
Season 1 Episode 3, The Outer Limits, 1963, "The Architects of Fear" is another great example.
Another very interesting thing from 1963!
For those with a Christian outlook, the Bible specifically warns against engaging with spirits - they work for the other team
I watched a recent video by Tim Alberino, who I like. He pointed out that the Bible isn't exclusively against spirits, but advises to TEST the spirits. The early Christians engaged in "spirit"-ual practices, as shown in some of Paul's letters. The test is whether their fruits align with God's will or Satan's.
One of the best pieces of wisdom: you will know them by their fruits - applies to so much!
Indeed so. To rule out all "spirits," by my definition, would be to disconnect from yourself as well as your God.
This got me thinking about the wisdom of old folktales, particularly the themes of engaging with evil. Most all stories of demons and other evil entities always make it clear that evil must be invited in- it cannot cross the threshold except by invitation.

My sense exactly.

For sure. Talk about poking a hornets’ nest!

Unless we quote Arthur C Clarke, ay? Aliens so advanced that it SEEMS like magic 🎩 ✨️
My comment about discernment still applies, including not seeking out relationships with ETs given what you said.
That depends on how you define supernatural. For me it simply means above the known natural order, which includes matter, life, and humans. I think that to say they “just” have better tech is an assumption. It’s possible there is a level above nature that also has technology.

It's very frustrating!
Maddening
Great post, thanks. I went through a phase of 'spiritual' naivete/imbecility, and it invited hell into my life. Avoid it like the plague.

Who knows, but it sounds plausible.

I have missed Mindmatters. How is Alan F doing?
