I used to think MiB was a fun movie until I learned what the USAF did to Paul Benowitz.
What the fuck, this story is insane.
elaborate please
He was an amateur radio operator who picked up some encrypted signals from a nearby air force base.
Rather than admit they were just encrypted transmissions the USAF created a program that convinced this man that aliens were real and he was being pursued by the government, including sending Men in Black to harass him and hiring a woman to believe everything he said.
He died in a mental hospital, estranged from his family and suffering from paranoid delusions.
Deeply evil shit, stranger things level.
Yeah, I can’t even enjoy The X Files anymore after learning about this. The evil conspiracy is real but it has nothing to do with aliens
Jesus fucking Christ!
Even my stupid teenage ass realized this movie series is a xenophobic copaganda. How is it that there are 40-year-olds out there who Stan this film?
They tortured Jeebs to get information.
