Steven Spielberg rejects Disclosure Day alien conspiracy theories
by Brooke Ivey Johnson and Tori Brazier
For decades, one of the internet’s favourite conspiracy theories has been that Hollywood is secretly used to acclimatise audiences to major future events before they happen.
The theory has attached itself to everything from pandemic movies and political thrillers to films about government corruption, nuclear war, and alien invasions.
In its most extreme form, believers argue that filmmakers are fed information about future disclosures and then package those ideas into entertainment to make the public more accepting when the truth eventually emerges.
