But Posadas's 1968 essay on UFOs was not so much a matter of committing his movement to UFOlogy, or restoring the cosmist tradition to communism, as of settling an internal debate within the movement's intellectual core over the reality and significance of UFOs. Yes, the phenomenon is real, he said, and if we can contact them, we should. But he added that his comrades shouldn't focus too much on trying to do that or speculating what UFOs are doing here or what their society is like — for we have everything we need to create a sustainable utopia on Earth right now.
