About: John Lear

An Entity of Type: animal, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

John Olsen Lear (December 3, 1942 – March 29, 2022) was an influential American conspiracy theorist, record-breaking pilot, and a one-time candidate for Nevada State Senate. Unlike previous UFO conspiracy theorists, Lear promoted a story of alien collusion with secret governmental forces. Lear's claims left a lasting influence on the UFO movement—one author observed "in the early years [UFO writers] did not, by and large, embrace strong political positions. [Lear and his partner] were the tip of a spear asserting that the number one thing we had to fear was not little green men, but the government that colluded with them, appropriating their technology against us."
