Catching up on Doctor Who, there's one episode that goes into "Maybe people wouldn't trust UNIT as secret alien police." Which yeah, seems fair. But just slides in how we should just trust MI5 I guess and who wrote this... Oh, same guy who did the Amazon is good episode! Gotcha.

Ok, but the whole point is that Conrad’s distrust isn’t real: he’s just a grifter. He knows that aliens are real- he’s seen the Shreek, the TARDIS, the Doctor etc- but he’s using other people’s legitimate doubts & skepticism for money & fame.

It’s not that we should always trust authority; it’s that we should be wary of populist figures who tell us what we want to hear.
