ShadowBorn Posted February 3, 2020 Moderator Posted February 3, 2020 So habituation does not fit the definition of Stockholm syndrome . For one the habituator has not been kid knapped nor has they been taken hostage by the creature. The habituation started by the people who wanted to make contact with the creature. It is not the creature that started the habituation with the human. Everyone is getting this all backwards with these creatures. Sure they might have come on their property but they did not start with the humans of wanting to be friendly with the humans. It has always been the humans who have started it with the creature. It is after of what takes place that the habituator needs to learn or understand what happens next. It is then that things can go wrong . There must be a great reason why they stay so secretive . Most talk about protection but most of us know that these creatures do not need protection. I have asked to go one sites where habituations are taking place in Michigan but have been refused. Reason, They did not want me to carry my gun for my own protection. Yet when I go on my own in my own are of research I have always carried my gun and still have had reaction. So for me this has always been a poor excuse. The same goes with them not knowing me. Well that does not matter since there should be a lot of evidence of their presence on their property. So that is another poor excuse. There should be other evidence as far as other witnesses like neighbors in that same general area. I am talking about a 50 mile radius at least. Reports of old and of new that prove there is habituation going on in this general area. It just takes proper investigation. Just my two cents .
indiefoot Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 My study situation started out as access to a habituation site. An elderly farm couple had been feeding the local wildlife to lure them close enough to see when the BF showed up. I remember the farmer saying "you wouldn't believe what my wife has been feeding." I found the area where they had been sleeping on warm summer days and started my efforts to get photos without running them off..Unfortunately the photos are taken from a long distance and are not clear enough for some. I like them though. ShadowBorn, If good evidence is ever obtained, the location will surely be revealed and the location overrun with uninvited guests. Most Habbers have thought this through and chosen to pass. I suggest folks go down to eastern Oklahoma and buy a rural farm. Star putting out sweet corn on the cob and sit back and wait. 2 2
7.62 Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 (edited) The habber's and the ones who say they speak to them with their minds I've watched on some youtube channels all seem looney , everyone of them. I don't believe any of them. Edited February 3, 2020 by 7.62 4

This is among the biggest BF that I have heard of in NC I know this area, and know another dusk sighting on the river by fishermen occurred in the past somewhere on that same road or nearby. I would imagine @BlackRockBigfoot is trying to smoke it out as we talk. I know the general vicinity and have traveled down this road and it is beautiful but pretty far rural and some tough driving with not the best paved roads. I asked my friend if he wanted to fish the Little Tenn. tomorrow, I doubt I will get a response after forwarding him the sighting. Since it will be a bright sunshiny day and I haven't been in the area for awhile I am going to do some Monday driving We just spent a very frustrating few days in Sumter National Forest. We may go check this area out for a change of pace...
Madison5716 Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 Cool report! Happy exploring, bipedalist!
Lam90 Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 I interpreted the habituation/Stockholm Syndrome as the human feeling forced into or trapped in interactions such Bigfoots peaking in windows, approaching the house, vocalizing, removing or rearranging items at the house, etc. Wouldn’t the feeling of being trapped in this situation with no choice in the matter possibly create Stockholm Syndrome or have I misinterpreted it? Whether my experience was Bigfoot or not, whatever I saw was traumatizing enough that my mind dissociated. The human mind does what it can to cope rather than break.
Popular Post SWWASAS Posted February 3, 2020 BFF Patron Popular Post Posted February 3, 2020 (edited) You are correct. They did not seek out bigfoot who simply showed up. These mostly rural people probably did not even lock their doors until they became aware of BF on their property. Drapes closed, locked doors, makes them feel like they are under house arrest or seige in their own house. Then they finally see what is prowling around the property and it is giant and frightening and they fear for their life like a hostage would. Then over time when they are not killed, they begin to feel grateful they have not been harmed. They begin to appreciate and even get protective of their uninvited prowlers. Some make the mistake of beginning or continuing feeding the BF. That creates trouble if interrupted. The parallels are very strong. Edited February 3, 2020 by SWWASAS 5

I did not realize that it could be simply ignored. Hmmm... Makes one think. If physical proof could be ignored...has that already happened? Could irrefutable physical proof have already been delivered...and just been ignored because there was no immediate monetary benefit or career advancement for the party receiving said evidence?
hiflier Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 There's more than one person who thinks that is the case. There's a fine line between "ignored" and actively disregarded. In either case, there would be knowledge of existence. So, IMHO, discovery has to be re-made outside of the "network". In order to accomplish that, patient attempts must be carefully planned and navigated. Because even a result of "non-existent" would be quite costly and put a big hole in revenues. Having said that, it's obvious that being stuck without an OFFICIAL answer is something I dislike to a very high degree and I'll do whatever it takes to put a stop to being played like that.

BlackRockBigfoot Posted February 3, 2020 Posted February 3, 2020 Just now, norseman said: There is a whole conspiracy movement concerning American giants and their remains. Might be related? Could be. All those tales of the Smithsonian vanishing the remains of American giants might have some truth to them.

That would be assuming disclosure would have a non-advancing, zero effect, on the status quo. In the case of Sasquatch, disclosure would have a MINUS effect, as in LOSS all around, resulting in economic and career reversals. Edited February 3, 2020 by hiflier

I don't think it's just American Giants. It's a whole ancient civilization theory. It's actually quite interesting....but I'm too busy with you guys to go down that rabbit hole!
