Any thoughts on the general disclosure movement in terms of it being a vehicle for system change? The simple motivation would be disagreement or dissatisfaction with the current societal system.
The (often unstated) implications being that a disclosure event would force a reevaluation of the current (socially entropic) system, based on a broader (i.e. the would-be advanced ET spiritual-technological) context. Consequently, through such new contextual knowledge or awareness, a more desirable system would be induced.
The idea is that social entropy increases as collective ordering principles diminish (and/or random creative principles increase). Examples of ordering principles would be anything that promotes or sustains cohesion such as a vision of purpose, energy resource dependencies, greater feeling of security, etc. Therefore, to alter the course of the (incipient) dysfunctional anarchy would necessarily require a new vision or ordering principle. To that end, a successful "disclosure" would provide the collective with an opportunity to form a new vision or ideology, to re-purpose itself, by offering new, motivational constructs.
...
It seems evident to me and some others that many social-change advocates / disclosure enthusiasts in the UFOlogy community understand the social implications and are attempting to promote (or dictate) their own (ideal) event through social framing.
The idea is that their particular agenda for change is pushed by describing plausible-sounding scenarios as happening in the past, being planned, or currently happening. The scenarios are typically depicted not only in a leading manner, but by exploiting a lack of verifiable information. The exploit of unverifiable information involves injecting further unverifiable information by creating desired associations or attributing causality, often through innuendo or tenuous claims. Indeed, this tactic can be compelling enough if it is able to spark one's imagination, or reinforce an existing prejudice, or answer suspicions.
