For the exo-mythologists there is one basic problem: Since
there are no extraterrestrials and/or any ET presence evidence and the whole
thing must be kept alive, new memes are added to the original ones.
I mentioned this in http://ufoculture.blogspot.com/2012/04/ufoet-galaxy-of-memes.html
However, these new ideas must keep their appeal. Fantasists
know that the ETH, the extraterrestrial hypothesis presented as a fact must be
interesting and promising to the believers.
That is why when a meme dies, like the “men in black” meme, the “experts”
must find a new one.
The last creation was the ET abductions, originated in the Betty
and Barney Hill incident. http://ufoculture.blogspot.com/2013/08/betty-barney-hill-and-et-abductions-meme.html
The abductions meme though, didn’t last
for long. It remains in the side of the Exomythological rhetoric but agonizing.
Now, it’s time for the cover-up=disclosure meme to die and
there are already some indications that the disclosure will be soon finished.
The myth of the giant conspiracy to keep the secret of the
extraterrestrial presence can remain for some time, but the Exopoliticians and UFO-Paranormal
experts will kill the disclosure fiction, simply because they know well that
the whole coverup-disclosure meme cannot be active for much long.
Some researchers believe that the whole ETH will end, but I think that a small UFO sub-cultural group will
survive, but with additional religious elements.
The cover-up will
become permanent, the disclosure impossible and the extraterrestrials will
become invisible and inaccessible like angels or gods.
