35 years ago Majestic's PsyOps were already secretly seeding newsa media with stories they were seeking to get people to repeat in order to carry out their prime directive to keep the Existence of UFOs and EGEs a secret. It is amazing how effective a few stories ridiculing what challenges people's prejudices can be.
I am sure the shadow government under the current Pinnacle is making sure a lot of the billions our government allots for intelligence and military matters gets behind Majestic's world wide campaign to support the creation of a fascist corporate state.
We are living in one strange world that people don't even know exists. We may even be funding that 17 year old--unknown to him--as long as he generally supports what Pinnacle and Majestic seek for us to come to believe.

A professional propagandist? Select those stories that only provokes a viceral reaction instead of really informing anyone of anything of importance? Hmm....interesting in itself.
