Disinfo Wars: Fact, Fiction, and Confusion in the UFO Disclosure Era | MHP 04.07.26.

What is the real truth about UFOs? Today, theories widely circulated online range from the controversial—and often questionable—including viral "alien mummy" discoveries in South America, to conspiracy-driven narratives about secret briefings, missing scientists, and even alleged "alien speeches" tied to political figures. Is it possible to make sense of the madness that often populates the modern UFO landscape, as represented by dialogue online? This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we wade into the madness and, drawing on firsthand experiences and widely reported cases, attempt to separate speculation from substantiated fact, and explore how easily misinformation—and potentially even disinformation—can be incubated within even the most unusual "side quests" of the contemporary UFO conversation.
