No sockpuppeting going on that I know of within the MC program survivor community and certainly none on my part. Ever. I post under LilyPat and under my own name and my writing style is, I'm told, pretty easily identifiable. As is OSR's. That dog won't hunt, CC.
LilyPatToo wrote:Now, red herrings dealt with, I'd like to address what I see as the main misunderstanding between us. No matter how many times I say clearly and candidly that I do not believe that all alien abductions are perpetrated by humans, you (and a number of other people) seem not to hear that. I can repeat it, put it in all-caps, underline it and it's STILL ignored in favor of attacking me.
LilyPatToo wrote:Even if 95% of the thousands of abductees you speak of truly were abducted by non-humans, that leaves one HECK of a lot of people who are being preyed upon by human intelligence agencies. Why on Earth do you feel so defensive about my trying to reach THOSE PEOPLE?
Why do you insist that I'm "explaining away" YOUR experience, if your experience is indeed alien-instigated?
If you're certain that you're an alien abductee, then my trying to reach people who are not shouldn't bother you at all, should it?
But it does.
LilyPatToo wrote:And when I post to a thread specifically titled "Alien abductions and the Monarch Project", why does that upset you? Ditto for my posting to threads that are focused upon just the mind control programs themselves--why do you take it upon yourself to come and post your problems with me personally? I'm not posting there for your benefit.
Lilypat wrote:I don't see you in either of those groups, so why the heck are you so hostile?
Why does the discussion of that small subset's experiences incense you so? Why do you personalize it? I'm genuinely curious, since you're not the only one who reacts this way and there has to be a reason.

LilyPatToo wrote:I'd originally come to that board earlier, looking for other abductees who had had the kind of abductions that I had undergone, rather than positive, uplifting ones. Even though I was mostly unsuccessful at that, I stuck around because I love Whitley Strieber's writing and had come to admire him and because I really liked many of the folks at that board--still do.
"Alien Abductions in the Gingerbread House"
by Dr. Karla Turner.
World renowned UFO researcher Jacques Vallee has repeatedly referred to the
similarities between UFO and abduction reports and the stories of folklore
and fairy tales. I disagree with Dr. Vallee on many, many points of UFOlogy,
but here I will grant that there is one fairy tale which does have something
important to tell us about the alien abduction phenomenon. It is not,
however, what Dr. Vallee might think.
The story of Hansel and Gretel presents a lesson that every abductee should
heed. These innocent children, wandering lost and frightened in the forest,
came upon a gingerbread house that seemed to offer them shelter and
sustenance. The owner of the house, a wizened old woman, was frightening to
them at first, but their hunger pushed the children to accept her offer to
come inside and be fed.
And so they entered the gingerbread house and promptly became the old
woman's captives. Kept in cages, the two children were abundantly fed. It
was not for their benefit, though. In fact, they were being fattened up for
the oven! The deceptive nature of the gingerbread house and of the old
woman's offer of food worked quite well.
It is the deceptive quality of this story that holds a warning for humans
who are abducted by aliens. Like Hansel and Gretel, we are initially
terrified by our encounter with aliens, but in too many cases, our fear is
overcome by the words of our abductors and by the thoughts and experiences
they present to us.
I, too, am an abductee, and my quest to discover the nature of my own
experiences led me into abduction research over the past four years. Working
with many other abduction cases, I have learned just how basic the deception
of alien actions can be.
My family and I also delved into our own experiences, both past and present.
Barbara Bartholic, a dedicated UFO investigator from Tulsa, Oklahoma, worked
closely with us and helped us fill in the gaps in our recollections of
strange encounters through hypnotic regression. Ms. Bartholic, by the way,
began her own research as an assistant to Jacques Vallee in cattle
mutilation investigations, so her expertise in ufology is wide-ranging. I
have recently written a book, Into the Fringe, about the startling and often
disturbing results of our personal investigations, and it will be published
by the Berkley Publishing Group in November 1992.
But my interest soon expanded past the merely personal, and for the past
several years I have worked as Ms. Bartholic's research associate, exploring
literally hundreds of sighting and encounter cases with her. And what I've
learned through this work has raised far more questions than answers. In
fact, it has taught me to be wary of those researchers who do claim to have
answers. I have yet to hear of a single theory or explanation that accounts
for all of the data.
Some researchers have pointed out patterns of events in the abduction
experience, such as the physical examination, the taking of sperm and ova,
and the later presentation of a hybrid baby to the abductee. Other patterns
include the training of the abductee in some way and the delivery of a
warning of some upcoming global disaster. Yes, these events are frequently
reported, as one researcher has said in boringly repetitious accounts, and
it is tempting to think that the explanation for alien abductions may lie in
these patterns.
So the researchers announce that the problem is solved. The aliens are doing
cross-breeding experiments, UFOlogists tell us. Never mind the overwhelming
evidence against the viable commingling of different species. Or, we are
told, the aliens are here to save us from destroying ourselves and our
planet through violence, drug use, epidemic disease, pollution, and resource
depletion. Never mind that these problems have grown worse, not better,
since the ETs began visiting us.

I love also the quote from Ghandi: “First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you. Then you win.”
In general the real ‘leadership’ in the area now recognizes that there are both real and military abductions (for want of better terms) and that this consensus was not the case just a few years ago. Progress.

Lilypat wrote:Repeating phrases--OH yeah. But I'm hesitant to post what mine are, since they sound very 'program' to me and might provide info useful to handlers/disinfo creeps. One plays automatically every time I'm stressed--it just ran on a continuous loop for a couple of minutes yesterday, due to a brouhaha on the RI board.
Speaking of which--remember "badpony"? S/he followed me to the Black Vault first (as "scout") and then to RI (as "Cosmic Cowbell") and yesterday accused ME of sockpuppeting--!!! *LOL* (and of being OSR, in particular) Took me a while to go over old emails s/he'd sent to me and figure out who it was. S/he posts to any MC-themed thread where I do, on any board, and attacks sporadically, expressing outrage that I'm trying to invalidate all alien abductees.

As I sat at the table, thinking about what had just happened, I flashbacked. I realized that in the past, when male handlers wanted to put me in a trance, all they had to do was get too physically close to me in public. They didn’t have to jingle their keys or do elaborate hand signals … they just plain got too close to me. That’s all it took! Each time, this action quickly put me in a trance state. Once they did that, I was totally vulnerable to go anywhere they instructed me to. This realization shook me up, but then I realized that I had finally broken their spell … all because I found the core of the trauma base that made me a victim in the first place.
A mental boundary I’ve practiced for myself, to stay out of psychosis and unreality, is this: when I’m not sure what is real and what is not, I go with what is most logical and practical. I learned this rule from an investigator about five years ago. Going by what is most logical and rational has saved me tremendous grief when I ran into programming about past lives, demons, aliens, and all the rest of the crap that mind-control perpetrators tried to use to trick and confuse and discredit me as a potential witness in court.
Another way I’ve discovered to protect my mind is to learn every way I can to reduce my trancing and dissociation. This is the best way I can protect myself, because hypnosis and trancing are the main way perps reaccess survivors. EEG Biofeedback helped me to cut way down on dissociation, and to take control of when and how much I trance. Another good method was to learn about hypnosis. Carla Emery’s "Encyclopedia of Hypnosis" is the best tool I’ve ever run across. It was very triggering, but for me that was a good thing. She did make some comments about the FMSF that I’m not too happy with, but the rest of her book has been very helpful to me.
