The dearth and death of some UFO/UAP wannebes

Our pal José Antonio Caravaca offered, quite awhile back, his “Distortion Theory” that explained the mechanism(s) that UFO/UAP non-humans use to interact with humans.
 
I won’t recap José’s “theory” – it’s online, not complex, but better explained by him than others.
 
José, while offering a sensible account of the non-human modus operandi, he doesn’t, as far as I know, explain – nor has anybody – what the UFO/UAP non-humans are up to; that is, what are their intentions and ultimate purpose(s).
 
This significant information is lost on the UFO old guard, that is as defunct and non-relevant as any UFO savant-to-be has become. The UFO geezers are “dead meat” in the UAP scheme of things.
 
You know the names, even the faces: Jan Aldrich, Richard Hoffman (and his SCU cronies), Curt Collins, Gene Steinberg, David Clarke (a moody skeptic), and even some current persons in the UAP: spotlight: Ross Coulthart, George Knapp, Jeremy Corbell, Robert Bigelow, any Skinwalker Ranch promoter, the total Ancient Astronaut gang (and their History Channel abettors).
 
But, yes, the UFO podcasters, like Joe Rogan perhaps, and the YouTubers of merit, named elsewhere here – Jon Jakobs (Stories Lost), Mr. Black (Beyond Creepy), and Damon and Amy (Rope) plus The Observer ‘zine crew and, yes, Micah Hanks (with his Debrief cohorts), are currently pertinent, as is Albert Rosales (with his vast collection of humanoid encounters) plus Steve Meara (film-maker and periodicalist).
 
Jacques Vallee has become, since his Trinity book, an outlier from the UFO/flying saucer past, and whistle-blower David Grusch along with Luis Elizondo, despite his best-selling book Imminent, are already being swept into the dust bin of news media (and societal pertinence).
 
And finally, for now, I’ve dealt elsewhere with the Archive fanatics, Jan Aldrich, Isaac Koi and others who have spent and are spending their last days on Earth collecting UFO materials and flying saucer nonsense from the old days to now – Aldrich writing that it’s for historians!
 
This delusion that UFO/UAP enthusiasts will traipse to far off places to ferret out some half-ass report of a UFO sighting or event is madness.
 
With the rise of AI, every scrap of UFO/UAP detritus can be found with a click of one’s mobile device, computer, phone, tablet, watch, whatever – and the material will pop up, unencumbered by mold or dust or blurred inks and fingerprints, not to mention the coughs and crud of those in charge of the materials that some dolt had the temerity to gather.
 
This archive collection is a sop to UFOers who never made a name for themselves but hope to gain an iota of legacy via the dregs of ufology.
 
It’s not only madness but sadness too.
