Why does the cryptozoology subreddit hate Bigfoot so much

Maybe because there's 0 compelling evidence for it and as soon as that new documentary gets ripped online it's going to eviscerate Bigfootfags and silence them forever

I think the Lusca could be real. Not absurd, but imagine a 20 foot predatory octopus that can fit anywhere its beak could, existing in the blue hole cave ecosystem and avoiding anoxic water by going to the blue holes to breathe. And if someone happens to be there, it just yanks them down and you never see them again. Yes that Bob Gymlan video convinced me but man, its really persuasive. I'm a lusca truther now.

It's just that there's a million "PGF IS A PROVEN HOAX" threads. It's like doing victory laps around the retarded kid but then also professing that some of those Bigfoot sightings were actually Giant Ground Sloths

>If you think they hate bigfoot you should see what they think of dogman
Anyone who has a serious and genuine interest in Cryptozoology hates the Dogman community, even the Bigfoot guys who aren't super schizo don't want them muddying up what reputation they have

And it will actually be proven once that doc releases, if the initial seething and meltdowns caused by it are any indicator.

I now believe in Bigfoot due to David Paulides bigfoot DNA study. It is on YT and is highly worth a watch. His findings revealed human mother/unknown father.

Then you have all of the Native American cultures with names for bigfoot and stories regarding them. Scott Carpenter (Into the 400) investigates a very compelling piece of property where he obtains long trackways due to a muddy flat where the bigfeet traverse to harvest mussels. Anyways, my point is that to discount bigfoot you have to assume that all of these cultures, both ancient and current day are lying. As well as discount all of the footprint evidence that is currently being collected.

>>5122037
Dogman has to be my personal favorite "retarded" cryptid. I love the fact that they call it "dogman" because even they know it's retarded to say werewolves are real
>>
>>5122040
100% agree on this one. Isn't there physical evidence of it too? i have no idea why it isn't one of the most talked about cryptids since it is one of the more plausible
>>
>>5122040
>>5122201
Another thing that makes it more believable in my opinion is that it wouldn't even be the biggest cephalopod alive right now. I am always more open to cryptids that don't claim to be the biggest and baddest of their family
>>
>>5122152
>you have to assume that all of these cultures, both ancient and current day are lying.
you can say that about a ton of mythical creatures though. by this logic dragons are also real
>>
>>5122152
I've said it before in these threads but i 100% believe bigfoot is an extinct or borderline extinct species purely because of how many native american tales describe what is essentially normal ape behavior. However i have a hard time believing the people who claim they are absolutely everywhere and even more so believing all the paranormal bullshit around the topic
>>
>>5122203
I think bigfoot is a little different because:
Number 1: As i said, a lot of those tales describe what is basically just a normal animal
And number 2: The fossil record is chock-full of bipedal apes
Still that is what i personally believe, i don't blame anyone for thinking it's all bullshit, specially because of the sheer amount of crazy people talking about interdimensional apes. Bigfootfags really did bring the bad rep upon themselves

There’s a carcass that people like Bob Gymlan have taken as pretty solid evidence of a giant unknown octopus species living in the area, but they don’t seem to consider the possibility that it could be from a Humboldt or giant squid. It looks like it has a lot of connective tissue so I’d lean more towards squid. Even if there is an unknown giant octopus I doubt it would be behind the blue hole disappearances. Giant octopus are very docile unlike squid and when they do attack something they don’t drag it into the deep at light speed

Isn't that irrelevant when we are talking about a possible new species?

What do you guys think about cabin in the woods? personally i used to like his videos until he made one saying werewolves are real. Then he started making paranormal bigfoot videos and i lost all interest
>>
>>5122243
Sounds like a guy who doesn't believe in any of this shit and is just trying to make a buck off schizos
>>
>>5122242
The idea of a giant super aggressive octopus that likes to eat large vertebrates evolving in a cave with no large vertebrates seems pretty unlikely

I wonder why? His DNA video/study that I mentioned seemed to be set up well. BTW, I agree with other posters that anyone talking about supernatural sasquatch stuff loses me instantly.

BTW, I mentioned "Scott" Carpenter earlier. It is actually Shane Carpenter and he made a documentary called Into the 400 about a private piece of 400 acre property he has had access to for years now. Basic story is that the owner was cutting down trees and started having some negative sightings of bigfoot. Shane came in and told him to stop logging property and started investigating. The muddy area has allowed him to consistently cast footprints, identify individuals and track their growth. What is interesting is that juvenile bigfoot footprints look essentially human until they age and spread out. Which mirrors what happens in Tarahumara Indians (the ones that run marathons in huaraches). Here he is talking about the 400 if anyone is interested. I really like this guy. Picrel is Shane with some casts. Check the size range. He said the juvies tend to hang with the female of the group and that he often casts them at the same time.

>I wonder why?
They made a whole video about how David lied or misconstrued the events of some of the missing person cases he discussed
Does Shane have any sort of video evidence of these bigfoots or is it all just casts of their feet
>>
>>5122251
Oh, thank you.

Shane had some thermal footage in his documentary, but it was kinda underwhelming. They have been teasing a new documentary which was supposed to have already been released. The most impressive thing he has posted was a trackway with ~100 prints in a line IIRC. I will look for it. Here is the thermal footage.

Just found the video of the trackway. 1:09:33 if it does not link correctly.

the documentary about the same film that was apparently debunked hundreds of times but that nobody can actually dissuade people from believing because of how compelling it is? That one?

yeah what was with that?
I kept seeing people go "patterson film CONFIRMED HOAX!! they found NEW FOOTAGE! REHERSAL FOOTAGE! JUST YOU WAIT!!"

Apparently a bunch of people close to Patterson and Gimlin were saying it was faked and a bunch of Bigfoot believers who saw the Documentary agreed it was fake
But I'd also want to see this footage first. I heard they're having trouble finding a Publisher or whatever but being the one's who supposedly proved without a shadow of a doubt that they debunked the Patterson-Gimlin film I'd think they'd just post it on youtube or something
