Trump "Disclosure"???

[OopsWrongPlanet?]

"Disclosure" is a much bandied about term, with many claims made in certain places that someone is about to disclose to the human race that human interactions have been going on with ETs for quite some time.

When people make the claim that it's about to happen, I, like most people, tend to view this with a bit of suspicion. Well, here is an interesting article from the Santa Monica Observer yesterday. Whether spoof or not, it raises some really interesting analogies with keeping up appearances at the end of the Soviet era.

See what you think. I'd be interested in your comments....

I wouldnt hold my breath, the Santa Monica Observer has been known to jump the gun before:

Santa Monica Observer: FBI: Hillary Clinton to face Criminal Indictment for Email Abuse Very Soon

They seem to be expanding on the story that was pulled from HuffPo as well as cite and validate Hugvnard's sources. The Observer lists this as "breaking news." If this is true, it's not only bad for next week's California primary for her, but also extremely bad for her legally. Maybe this is why her attorney told the FBI today that she's under no obligation to talk with them.

FBI: Hillary Clinton to face Criminal Indictment for Email Abuse Very Soon
By David Ganezer
Observer Staff Writer

On Saturday Night, a journalist employed by liberal Huffington Post reported that the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) will recommend that the Department of Justice file a Federal criminal complaint, indicting U.S. Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton.

HyperNormalisation is a 2016 BBC documentary by British filmmaker Adam Curtis. In the film, Curtis argues that since the 1970s, governments, financiers, and technological utopians have given up on the complex "real world" and built a simple "fake world" that is run by corporations and kept stable by politicians. The film was released on 16 October 2016 on the BBC iPlayer.

The term "hypernormalisation" is taken from Alexei Yurchak's 2006 book Everything was Forever, Until it was No More: The Last Soviet Generation, about the paradoxes of life in the Soviet Union during the 20 years before it collapsed.

A professor of anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley, he argues that everyone knew the system was failing, but as no one could imagine any alternative to the status quo, politicians and citizens were resigned to maintaining a pretence of a functioning society. Over time, this delusion became a self-fulfilling prophecy and the "fakeness" was accepted by everyone as real, an effect that Yurchak termed "hypernormalisation".

This is new to me. I'll have to put the film on my "to watch soon" list. In an interview I listened to recently, Anthony Peake mentioned how Philip K. Dick believed that time stopped in 70 AD. Time stopping, fake realities created ... how are we ever to know for sure what's going on?

Strange article. Firstly, no other news sources seem to reporting any Trump statements about Area 51. Then, the article strangely and nonsensically jumps from talking about Presidential disclosure to the Baltic Sea anomaly and then to an Adam Curtis documentary. Like so much on the web, this article is poorly written, has undocumented sources. It just doesn't deserve our attention here.

Here are the collected articles of Santa Monica Observer "journalist" Stan Greene. Looks like a Sorcha Faal wannabee.

Yes, point taken, Kryztian. The part I found interesting was the comparison with the late Soviet era and the cover-up within the bloc of the failure of communism, leaving people to put two and two together themselves (the part quoted above by LadyM):-

This seems quite insightful, though the insights are really from Curtis's Documentary and Yurchak's book, rather than from the article itself.
