Hyperconflation: Recommending A Relational Alternative to the Datacentric Approach to UAP

The book focuses on misinformation in the form of eight, inaccurate conflations relating to UAP and to existence more generally, which reinforce one another and result in what I refer to as hyperconflation. The eight conflations are: 1) conflating human-made UAP with extraterrestrial UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects) and USOs (Unidentified Submerged Objects); 2) conflating military with civilian data collection; 3) conflating the UAP topic with a counterterrorism (CT) problem; 4) conflating data with knowledge; 5) conflating the business of national security with genuine national security and actual safety; 6) conflating prediction with wisdom; 7) conflating science with truth; and 8) conflating explicate order with the entirety of existence.
