How a New Age conspiracy theorist dishonestly cited a CIA file as "evidence" of starseeds and alien contact
So I recently came upon a video claiming that the CIA knows all about starseeds. The creator of this video cited a document found in the Freedom of Information Act Electronic Reading Room.
The document this man cited was titled "Star People Visit Earth To Spread Peace Message." So I went to the website and looked it up. (You can read it for yourself here.)
Opening up the document, we can see what it is for ourselves: a newspaper article clipped from the May 2, 1983 issue of Arizona Daily Wildcat. The article is reporting on claims made by a couple of New Agers, Michael and Aurora El-Legion. Literally everything this article says about aliens and star people came from these two people who gave a presentation at the University of Arizona. Everything they're quoted as claiming in this article was all pretty standard fare among New Agers at the time.
For anyone who isn't aware, the CIA collects information on all kinds of things that might be of interest. It doesn't mean that these things are necessarily real, just that they think it's worth looking into. The only thing this document proves is that someone working for the CIA cut an article out of a newspaper and filed it away.

"ENOUGH" or "Enough to feed the Earth" is a well-known slogan of the Martians. Here we can see a campaign letter, with the image of a national hero of early Mars and an earthly official. The postcard depicts a time when Earth and Mars were not yet at war, but the situation was already tense.
"Ancient alien theory is actually denigrating toward white people because it means the aliens didn't think they were worthy" is the hot take of the week, I think
Jesus fucking Christ people will really bend over backward to justify believing in a totally BS hypothesis that is quite demonstrably rooted in white supremacy, huh?
