From The Daily Beast:
The world of UFO conspiracy theorists has been torn apart by dueling lawsuits, pitting a prominent UFO influencer against a conspiracy-minded streaming video company valued at more than $200 million over who has the right to discuss their experiences with a benevolent species of blue alien.
The battle taking place in a federal courthouse in Colorado centers on Corey Goode, a UFO promoter and self-proclaimed deep-space traveler who consorts with benevolent aliens, and his former employer, Gaia, a publicly traded streaming platform whose videos blend yoga instruction with stories about “deep state” villains and benevolent aliens.
After leaving his Gaia show in 2018, Goode engaged in a long-running feud with the company. In March 2020, Goode sued Gaia, alleging that the company had engaged in an elaborate conspiracy against him. On Monday, Gaia filed a countersuit, accusing Goode of defamation and concocting various schemes to sabotage the company.
Attorneys for Goode and Gaia declined to comment.
Much of the lawsuit centers on who has the right to talk about a bird-like species of alien called “Blue Avians,” as well as a covert space agency that are, in Goode’s telling, both supposed to be real things.
I suppose that everyone has their sensitivities. Mine, oddly enough, isn’t that this feud exists. It’s that the company involved, Gaia – which I can only hope isn’t associated with Dr. Lovelock of the Gaia Hypothesis fame – is worth over $200 million.
Are you kidding me?
Or are these people who are the consumers of this trash simply enjoying a good story and know it’s all silly?
I suppose we could compare it to Star Trek. It actually halfway makes sense then.
