The UFO/alien grift is never ending. Granted, many of the believers are honest believers; they’ve been given so much bad information for so long that they cannot see things any other way. But a few of them are (100%) consciously deceptive, and fully aware of the volumes of shit they are full of.

One of these is Mexican grave robber Jaime Maussan, with multiple charges of stealing pre-Hispanic mummies, criminal abuse of corpses (cutting off two fingers to make it look like they are 3-fingered aliens), and then presenting them to the lower house of Mexico’s Congress as alien bodies.

So when I recently saw this tweet, I instantly recognized it: Maussan has always coated his stolen mummies (also his hodgepodges of human and animal bones) in a white plaster-like material, because that is, apparently, what UFOlogists need to persuade them that a plaster mess is absolutely a genuine alien cadaver:

Dr. Jose Zalce Benitez and Mr. Ricardo, BS biology, are longtime associates of Maussan, supporting whatever claims he makes. This did not work out so well for Zalce, who was fired from his post as a Mexican Navy doctor after so aggressively promoting these artifacts, thoroughly known to even the general public to be more of Maussan’s fakes.

I had to reply:
