In the clip, Jesse says that Tom DeLonge thinks of the UFO phenomenon as a type of regulatory mechanism. Of course, DeLonge knows his Vallée and Keel quite well. Reminds me also of this bit from the late Brad Steiger… UFOs and the teaching game: “The UFOnauts are playing a teaching game with mankind, in which our concept of reality is being gradually changed. In the teasing fashion of a Zen riddle or a Sufi joke, we are being provoked into higher consciousness." https://t.co/SHdw12T94s

Brad Steiger: “These paraphysical beings have the ability to influence the human mind telepathically in order to project what may appear to be three-dimensional images. The image seen may depend in large part upon the preconceptions the human observer has about alien life forms. Thus reported accounts of spaceship occupants run the gamut from Bug-Eyed Monsters, to little Green Men, to Metaphysical Space Brothers.” The Phenomenon is reflective... and intrusive.
