If you look at the start of the article Ana Paulina Luna has history of voicing crazy conspiracy theories, like that Bible story about fallen angels depicts aliens invading Earth: ‘The truth is in plain sight!’.
So I just stopped there. Yes there’s a lot of missing scientists, but in an administration where science and knowledge is not prioritized, this is just noise.
Yep.
In short, it is an incoherent conspiracy theory that spreads wide and far, not paying any attention to boundaries of time, space, or area of expertise. “Which is all to say that another piece of flagrant nonsense has ascended to the highest levels of U.S. politics and media,” writes the Atlantic’s Daniel Engber. “To call it a conspiracy theory would be far too kind, because no comprehensive theory has been floated to explain the pattern of events. But then, even the phrase pattern of events is imprecise, because there is no pattern here at all. Given all the people who could have been roped into this narrative but weren’t, any hope of finding meaning falls away. Barring any dramatic new disclosures, the mystery of the missing scientists has the dubious honor of being a sham in every way at once.”

They are underestimating the impact of funding and job uncertainty on scientist mental health. Who’s killing the scientists? Probably you GOP assholes supporting deep funding cuts and insane regulations on scientific endeavors.
The instructions from the overseers were pretty clear in the last 50 years. These guys didn’t want to listen, so they get to live the star trek life for real.
People, please read the dead-or-missing-scientists chapter from this book: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/hidden-history-13
When I set about validating what it was saying, all that I checked, checked-out.
& please don’t include the obviously-not-conspiracy deaths in the “suspicious” category.
That one murdered by a jealous former-colleague, that’s just narcissism murdeing someone, same as mass-shooters: it doesn’t need any conspiracy.

The simplest answer would be that a foreign nation is pissed that it is being constantly attacked for it wanting something to not be controlled by the USA only and has decided the best way to get back at them is to just remove the US ability to do research as well.
The simplest answer is random unconnected people die everyday, in the us, about 8k people a day, certainly patterns and narratives can be formed in the noise regardless of reality.
I think this scientists dying narrative is a psyop to distract from epstein and iran, trying to offer an enticing hidden third enemy
I guess I should have said the simplest conspiracy is what I said. The simplest explanation is random deaths.
They’re not dying though. Many are just dissapeared. Without any logical explanation of their life or death.
No, the simplest answer is that these are just more smokescreens being thrown up to distract attention from all the crimes committed by the U.S. government.
UFOs and secret conspiracies are simply a good way to divert attention from actual conspiracies, as those quite clearly documented in the Epstein files, for example.
Or, they are being killed by lizard aliens.
Yeah, that’s definitely the most likely explanation, but you can’t just say that… because of the lizard aliens.
Gay lizard aliens are a real problem. Where is Joe Rogan when we need him most?
Oh, right, they’re also responsible for the chemicals in the drinking water that turn everyone gay - I heard that from some super-reliable news outlets.
