Please enlighten us with specifics.
Fair enough.
NSA, DNI, DoD, and many sub-agencies under these umbrellas.
Specific cases have been influenced by different groups for different reasons. Nothing can be proven 100% by any of us, but in many cases there are subtle and outward clues.
In any case of possible/probable disinfo, the first step in considering this possibility is to think about what the specific agency or agenda would have to gain/hide from said disinfo.
For example: the Philadelphia/Montauk 'experiments'. I think most will agree that SOMEthing happened that these stories were based off of. Maybe I'm wrong but I think also that many of us would also agree that in both cases the stories are largely fiction/disinfo.
In these cases one agency keeps coming up- Naval Intelligence. What do they have to gain by misdirecting or perpetuating the wild stories that come along in both cases? I'm not completely certain, but anyone who looks into both cases will find that DNI was involved. There was also a couple of crazy guys trying to make money, sell books, etc. but there is a basis that points to deliberate disinfo.
Look at how the Philadelphia story came out closely, and you'll get an idea of what I mean.
Whether or not ETs and such are real doesn't really matter as far as intelligence disinfo is concerned. If people will believe in something for one reason or another, people will try to use that belief (or disbelief) to their advantage. Whether to steer people away from the truth, get them tied up in irrelevant tangents, etc.
Psyops. Sometimes it appears to just be a test on how information is spread amongst the conspiracy crowd, and how it can be used.
Sorry if I was coming off as cryptic and thanks for calling me on it, I don't like ass-talking either
Hopefully this post was more explanatory.
