Totally agree with you. The countless people who have encountered MIB for real would be doing anything but considering this "satire" if they read the post.

And by the poster even putting this on the thread makes it look as if he/she is "watering down" the possibility of it happening, debunker possibly......hmmmm.

Talk about adding fuel to the debunker fire

This thread has been mentioned by the "International Director" of MUFON, James Carrion in a post on his new blog "Follow the Magic Thread".

He discusses his presence on this "notorious list".

Um, he doesn't seem to have realised that the list is (pretty obviously) a joke...

Nor, for that matter, does he appear to have realised the purpose of the joke, i.e. to make fun of the tendency for personalities within ufology to label anyone that disagrees with them as a "man in black" working for
THEM.

In this context, it is particularly amusing to note that James Carrion may have adopted the way of thinking that this list was intended to parody. His posts on his blog have sought to suggest that individuals that have disagreed with him on Internet discussion boards are probably employed by intelligence agencies. For example, this post by James Carrion includes the following:


The danger lies in the anonymous nature of these boards. Anyone can sign up without proving their identity and they can make any claims that they want. For example, on the MUFON message boards we had a poster who was very critical of MUFON and claimed to be a former MUFON member. When I asked the person to confidentially send me his/her name so I could verify that they were indeed a former member, they stopped posting on the board and it is doubtful they were ever a MUFON member in the first place. More likely they were an agent provocateur in the employ of the intelligence agencies.

...

if you feel bullied on a UFO related message board, let me know as I would like to keep up on the latest intelligence agency disinformation and manipulation tactics.


Given the amount of ridicule of UFO "believers"/researchers (or at least the fear of such ridicule) is it really the case that if someone is hesitant to reveal their real name on a UFO discussion board it is likely they are "an agent provocateur in the employ of the intelligence agencies"?

I think not...
