•Belief in alien visits to Earth is spiraling out of control – here's why that's so dangerous
60% Informative
Around a fifth of UK citizens believe Earth has been visited by extraterrestrials.
Number of people who believe UFO sightings offer likely proof of alien life increased from 20% in 1996 to 34% in 2022 .
This belief is slightly paradoxical as we have zero evidence that aliens even exist.
UFOlogists promise a far higher profile for indigenous history in return for mashing together of genuine indigenous stories with fictional tales about UFOs, repackaged as suppressed history.
The modern alien visitation narrative has not, after all, emerged out of indigenous communities, says author.
Visitation narratives tend to overwrite indigenous storytelling about sky and ground, he says.
