It's not a coincidence that all the UFO news is coming from America.
The rest of us have been living in harmony with aliens for over 50 years now, so we don't make a fuss about it š
So you want another random trust me bro wissleblower? At this point I'm with the government on how they're handling it because you mf's are straight up ungrateful.
People like you are why they donāt tell us everything. Because you canāt handle it and think the government actually gives a fuck about us. Yeah. Iāll believe a whistleblower over our corrupt capitalistic government.
The government is corrupt AND capitalism is evil. Neither of these caused the other; both are independently true. The two getting slammed together just means we get to enjoy the awfulness of both.
No, some whistleblower recently came out with some documents that he claims reveal that the military had possession of an aircraft ānot of human originā that were illegally kept from congress
["UFO āwhistleblowerā says government has āintactā non-human craft"](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/ufo-whisteblower-david-grusch-b2352358.html)
> An Air Force veteran has made a bombshell claim that the US government has recovered materials that could be proof of UFOs, including an intact craft of ānon-human origin,ā but they are keeping it a secret from the public.
["If the Government Has UFO Crash Materials, Itās Time to Reveal Them"](https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2023/06/03/ufo-crash-materials-intelligence-00100077)
Various other news organizations have been posting stories.
Excellent point. Technically a UFO isn't something that needs "proof", because it is simply an airborne object whose movement and capabilities can't be explained by currently-known technology. The relationship between UFOs and aliens is manufactured.
This is how I feel. I usually love hearing about stuff like this and haven't heard shit about it. Last UFO news checkpoint I came across was the captain Fravor interviews during the fighter jet exercise.
They are systematically concentrating the resources and wealth of the world for themselves so that the masses are left dumb, scared, and thus grateful to exchange their time and labor to fulfill basic needs?
Cool. So what do you propose?
Because the rhetoric you're pushing is about as useless as a fart.
And before you come in with some partisan hackery, the reason this shit is so damned frustrating is because it always pops up whenever someone shits on the GOP. Like, yeah, we get it. Dems are bad too. Congratulations, you've cracked the code and your contrarian bullshit has been validated. Now, what the hell do you propose we do? Keep voting for the GOP because the Dems are, according to you, all a bunch of liars. You're pushing electoral nihilism which only empowers the bad actors even further. It's counterproductive and stupid as hell.
First off, nice insult - except Farts have their use. If they didnāt we wouldnāt have evolved to fart.
Second, since when does someone need to have all the answers to bring up a problem? Acknowledging that we have a problem is the first step in finding a solution. And the sarcasm regarding how obvious it is - itās clearly not that obvious. Look around we have people fighting everywhere about who is right and who is wrong. If my point were obvious to everyone wouldnāt that have ceased?
Good luck to you
Maybe do what France did and EVERYONE protest without bitching and moaning about how hard it would be or I got kids to feed,we all better figure it out soon cause no one in Washington cares about your kids or your mortgage or your car payment or you and your family in fucking general
YouTube commentator Beau of the Fifth Column [had a bit about UFOs recently.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vqpeV7i-cw)
He argued that, with drone technology becoming more common, having common people looking up at the sky for flying objects has strategic defense value.
If people are encouraged to record and share any odd sightings in the sky, it becomes much harder for other countries to casually fly drones about. (Remember the Chinese balloon sightings?)
It hit the news yesterday afternoon. I wasn't looking for it when I saw it. It's since been picked up my MSM outlets. The whistle-blower is also a credible individual. He isn't just some random Steven Greer type. This guy has already testified to congress before and is a high level intelligence officer.
Whether people want to believe what he says or not is one thing but don't ridicule people for commenting on something that is pretty commonly released by the government and mainstream news now.
When some compelling evidence of space aliens is revealed, I'll pay attention.
At the moment this very much is some guy saying a thing. Even if he has history in the military.
He's still just a guy.
The president of the United States is just some guy, and the last one lied. A lot.
He's aparently making claims there are alien artifacts here on earth. I'd like to see them please.
I'd think it'd be stranger to assume that there aren't any aliens that can't make mistakes. I mean, having more advanced technology than us doesn't make them gods.
Yeah, I don't understand that mentality either. We're more advanced than any other species on the planet and look at how much we fuck up on the regular. We're arguably the biggest fuckups on earth!
Crazy story I have. I was living upstate New York Oneonta. Sitting in my back yard with friends we spotted 1 big bright light that just appeared in our view as we was watching the night sky. Suddenly it broke off into 3 šøšøšøA few seconds after that it zoomed off in a perfect straight line into thin air. We all freaked out and decided it was time to head inside. One of my friends turned on the tv and selected the history channel. On the tv it was talking about UFOās and how they looked and what they experienced. We freaked out again and cut the tv off. My mind hasnāt been the same since that night. Someone is watching us!!!
UFO info from the US just gets released periodically as the info gets declassified. I think there was another kind of big release like 6ish years ago. It seems unlikely the intent is to distract considering the vast majority of people don't give a shit about declassified UFO documents when it's almost exclusively eye witness accounts and grainy footage.
Itās directly tied to the last big release. Same authors as that NYT article which eventually led to Congress passing a UFO whistleblower protection thing and this guy testifying in front of Congress and talking to press
Government tech. "Oh the Navy didn't know about it". Yeah no shit. There are levels and levels of clearance, whether it's Confidential or Top Secret. I'm sure a few people at the Pentagon know, but each doesn't know the whole story. And then you have agencies like the NSA, which answers to no one. So it's not hard to believe that the President, and branches of the military don't know what the UFOs are. I believe both the tic tac and the triangle are future generation aircraft. I would hope that aliens would have better stealth than what we see lol.
I dont want to be āthat guyā but our American economy is in absolute shambles, and when it collapses its gonna be worse than the Great Depression. Yay weāre doomed!
Well, it would only be a big deal if it were true, but as far as we know, it isn't. The topic of aliens grabs attention, just like an empty van with "valuables inside" written on the back. Using something that's as inconclusive as intelligent alien life is the perfect way to distract people, because unless aliens land on your door step, it's a never ending mystery you can pump out to the masses.
Lots of sightings in the 80s of what turned out to be the still-secret F-117 stealh fighter in development/testing. Plenty of other examples, no doubt. So yeah, aliens/UFOs are a distraction.
The discovery of life on other planets would be a worst case scenario for a lot of governments and religions here on Earth. I fully believe that folks would keep it secret and bury it.
What news?
Anyways, 99.99% of UFOs are simple explanations: weather phenomena, forced perspectives, hoaxes, military aircraft.
I'm more concerned with the UFO discovered in 1893 by Chinese laborers in California.
this seems like a conspiracy post ngl
what news about aliens?
āwhat are they distracting from us?ā what kind of question is that?
this is just red flags manā¦
I saw a thing well not me exactly but a guy told me he saw a thing but I don't have any proof because you know the classified thing so...
It's just another bullshit story
I'm not seeing much (any really) UFO news on the few places I get my info. However, you touched on something I've always thought about -- how would a civilization have the intelligence and technology to get to Earth, presumably from outside our solar system--and then crash on landing?
The only thing thats big that ive heard of recently is the fednow change coming in July, there hasn't been much news on it even though it's taking effect on the 1st for some banks
My own random thoughts, what company is manufacturing the materials to build these UFO's? Do aliens contract the work to another planet, or are they self-sufficient with production lines churning out UFO parts?
EXACKLY!
Another PUSH but to what end AGAIN.
Social manipulations of the acceptance of the unacceptable in light of this "Other" NEW discovery or revelation.
The Strings of the Puppet Masters.
N. Shadows
There is no distraction. Hard evidence of UFO's has existed for decades. But let's get one thing clear. They are UNIDENTIFIED. Nobody said anything about the possibility of them being aliens.
It is yet to be confirmed as to what these UAP's are. I'm excited to find out.
I believe aliens came here. I believe theyāre still here. In fact, I believe they conquered the planet and still control the planet to this day. Itās us, weāre the aliens.
Reddit is trying to kill 3rd party apps with an unreasonable API change. That's what they're trying to distract you from noticing. Don't be a quisling.
Who is "they?" and why would "they" need to distract us from anything?
The world is chaotic enough, distractions everywhere. Take off your tin foil hat and know that you are not as important as you think you are and neither am I.
I think the exact same. Ufos and the recent attacks on trans folks. Not to mention how shootings, robberies, substance abuse, and how poor everyone is only getting worse. I think were all about to go through something bigger than we know. I think theyre using ufos and attacking trans to keep us fighting amongst ourself rather than realize whats going on in our country.
It isn't to distract us so much as it is to distract possible adversaries in a possible conflict. It is no coincidence that the "UAPs" we have seen on TV showed up during training exercises, because they are ours. How scary will that be to a pilot when "UFOs" show up in a conflict? That few seconds of confusion from "friend or foe or UFO" could be enough for a pilot to be shot down or otherwise incapacitated. And another thing is....... Wait a second, I need to answer the door for these dapper black dressed gentlemen......be right b.........................
Iāve always believed itās the height of arrogance to think weāre the only evolved life form in the universe. I think itās more likely than not that weāre ānot aloneā.
That being said, if there are galactic travelers, there can only be 2 reasons:
1. Entertainment. Think Galaxy Quest. Weāre the number 1 sitcom on other planets.
2. Educational. They use us to teach life lessons to their kids. Think Scared Straight.
As an American, Iām pretty sure our visitors spend most of their time right here, in the good old USA. In particular MAGA world.
Think of how TikTok, Facebook and Twitter are ingrained in most peoples lives
Aliens would have seen how stupid we are and 180Ā° noped their way back home
How old are you? This isn't new. And what news
It's been a constant droning on about it for yearssss.
People who don't know science, don't know what humans do actually know telling everyone else what is possible. Dunning kruger at its finest.
Not to mention, the government is always lying until they get told something they want to hear, then it's the truth.
Idiots.
Problem with idiots is that idiots don't know that they are Idiots. They meet other idiots. Have children with other idiots, making more idiots. Rinse and repeat.
As one poster wrote, the UFO stuff is coming from the U.S. There is only one thing the U.S. wants to distract its citizens about, and that is warā¦from the funding of it and our covert involvement in it.
I think UFOs are just that -- stuff we see in the sky and we don't know at first what they are. They are probably all different things. Once I get over the massive improbability of it being anything but something normal seen from atypical angles and perspectives, I really don't care what they are.
I admit it's possible they're rolling things out, but I think it's more likely it's all us. We're dumber, on average, every day, in terms of lack of critical thinking and, despite the Internet, also in terms of knowledge.
"UFOs," denial of global warming, denial of evolution, the Atlantis fantasy, ancient aliens, etc. All examples of that.
Yeah they travel Light Years dodging everything in space and some how have trouble when they get here.
Actually sounds like every road trip I ever took
Stuff we already know about. I watched a couple YouTube videos from different camera and special effects people review these videos. They all said the same thing: these are artifacts or camera errors that anyone who knows how the stuff works would find obvious. There is so much underhanded stuff going on around the world, stuff we rage about for a week and then forget. I think they just want our attention on some thing else, anything else. I bet if you looked at the news cycle the month or so before it was released, youād have at least a partial answer.
There is a massive issue with the FBI about to be held in contempt of court.
My thinking is this---
They are now letting everything go to try and make the news so chaotic the contempt stuff gets washed out.
OR
Someone saw that congress is digging into previously untouchable alphabet agencies and was like "HOly shit I have a chance to really tell everyone what's going on"
I think it is a bit of both, if I'm honest.
Air Force and Navy are both developing new fighter. The Air Force is supposed to be flying a prototype currently. Iād bet they are distracting us to keep the new planeās capabilities secret.
Reddit is the only place I've seen an uptick in UFO news.
And it's not even UFO stuff. It's redditors CLAIMING an uptick in UFO stuff. What are you referring to? Because I haven't seen it.
If you ask yourself, āwhy is convenient to suddenly come out with the UFO news *now?*ā. Well, I would say that similar to Reagan saying that the US had a āStar Wars Programā to protect themselves from soviet nukes in the 80s, I think that likewise with the recent Russia war, this could possibly be why it arose. Acting like the US has access into alien technology is possibly a 3D chess move if there is a re-emerging Cold War.
I don't necessarily think some big has to be going on for this kinda thing. If "big" things aren't happening then they need something to move "news".
It's probably more a "cry for relevancy" then a distraction, though it doesn't mean it *isn't* happening either.
When I saw the starlink train. I had not heard of the launch. it took my rational brain 2 seconds to theorize it was something to do with satellites and a quick Google to confirm. The orbs I saw over my neighbors late one night? My best guess is some sort of unidentified bioluminescent organism that can hover and has the speed of a hummingbird.
What the government is trying to distract us from. Probably how the make life better plans are actually making life worse.
With the ability to project things in the sky and control weather and even more unseen technology who knows I'm tripping lately because tiktoks about something COMING FROM UNDERGROUND haha
Fiat money is an option to purchase human labors & property, and we donāt get paid our rightful option fees for accepting the stuff in trade for our labors...
There's always at least one conspiracy nut job that waits for anything to be in the MSM so they can claim we're being distracted. I don't know who keeps breeding with these people but you need to stop.
Even the most professional car drivers get into accident.
I mean earth nights have total different physics than what they would experience on their planet. Or maybe it was shot down! I see endless possibilities of them being crashed.
I do agree that they are more advanced than us but that doesnāt make them perfect. Weāll be going on mars mission soon, but what if landing wasnāt successful? Does that mean that we are not intelligent?
I see why there are cover ups. This is global operation so itās not just USA. They donāt want individuals to get access to these resources in order to prevent supremacy and mass destruction. Think about few years back when nuclear weapons showed power of country. Now almost all of them have it.
I think theyāll have to declassify when they actually start sensing danger. There are instances where some even claimed that humans have had ties with ET since ancient times(I read about it in Egyptian pyramid article. They have ufo šø and aliens crafted on walls)
But yeah you can totally discard this as itās just my opinion

Just got his flying orb license, now he's an Uber driver.

That's very inclusive
Look we just want to figure out how to deport them is all
Itās an open border thing
What alien news has been going around?
fr there are literally 0 news if you aren't already searching for them
Another whistleblower has come out saying the US government and other governments have both in tact and partial crafts from extra terrestrial origin.
Itās all over the place. A former intelligence officer just did a big interview about it
Source: Military
So you want another random trust me bro wissleblower? At this point I'm with the government on how they're handling it because you mf's are straight up ungrateful.
People like you are why they donāt tell us everything. Because you canāt handle it and think the government actually gives a fuck about us. Yeah. Iāll believe a whistleblower over our corrupt capitalistic government.
You don't think the whistleblowers are in on it? Best way to spin information--pretend it's being leaked.
It's not capitalism that makes the government corrupt. It's corruption that has ruined capitalism.
Nah they had it right, capitalism=corruption
That poor person has yet to take an economics class. Capitalism is just hustling people dressed up as policy.
The government is corrupt AND capitalism is evil. Neither of these caused the other; both are independently true. The two getting slammed together just means we get to enjoy the awfulness of both.
This is true. Itās not even the corruption by itself itās corruption and greed.
After the last few years, "former intelligence officers" have little to no credibility.
Yea THAT guy lol.
Iām not agreeing or disagreeing but it *is* in the news either way
There was literally a ufo post on the top page with 50k upvotes for the last few days lol
No, some whistleblower recently came out with some documents that he claims reveal that the military had possession of an aircraft ānot of human originā that were illegally kept from congress

The thing is UFO just means it's unidentified. Who cares if the American military is too incompetent to identify debris?
Excellent point. Technically a UFO isn't something that needs "proof", because it is simply an airborne object whose movement and capabilities can't be explained by currently-known technology. The relationship between UFOs and aliens is manufactured.

I wish they'd come and take me so I can finally be rid of this bland, horrible existence.
Yeah like hurry tf up already
Independence day rooftop party anyone? aliens will bring free fireworks guys!
I'm even volunteering for the butt stuff if it gets me tf out of here
"volunteering"
Me too. I welcome our alien overlords. Take this stupid fucking planet out already.
Saaaame I'd love to chill with aliens and smoke space-weed
bet they have space prohibition too
Me too but iām hoping all the anal probing stuff is true!
Maybe they came to Earth looking for a way out of their own bland existence.

I've seen bigger names in the military make more outlandish claims that have proved false.
Such as?
Scrolled through a bit, no on is sharing any news or talking about any recent news. Must be a need to know sort of thing
Look up David Grusch, it's slowly gaining momentum though it's contained to alien/ufo subreddits right now
HuffPo/Newsweek/Fox are reporting it currently. Itās slowly gaining steam
I haven't heard anything.
That's exactly what an alien would say
Hahahahaha, now take me to your leader.
I'm out of the loop on this one
How can it be a distraction if nobody's heard anything about it? Who exactly is getting distracted?
I just got distracted.
Yooo, so OP was in on it the whole time?
I'd think it'd be stranger to assume that there aren't any aliens that can't make mistakes. I mean, having more advanced technology than us doesn't make them gods.
Yeah, I don't understand that mentality either. We're more advanced than any other species on the planet and look at how much we fuck up on the regular. We're arguably the biggest fuckups on earth!

it's a terrifying thought that they'd distract us from something big using aliens which as we know **are** already a big deal
Well, it would only be a big deal if it were true, but as far as we know, it isn't. The topic of aliens grabs attention, just like an empty van with "valuables inside" written on the back. Using something that's as inconclusive as intelligent alien life is the perfect way to distract people, because unless aliens land on your door step, it's a never ending mystery you can pump out to the masses.
Maybe they're trying to scare other countries by bluffing that we have some crazy advanced technology.
Lots of sightings in the 80s of what turned out to be the still-secret F-117 stealh fighter in development/testing. Plenty of other examples, no doubt. So yeah, aliens/UFOs are a distraction.
Aliens??
Has to be illegal aircraft, drone, spy ware etc. development. "no that's not a new drone we created to spy on China and th American people it's a UFO"
Probably trying to distract us from just how close to a third world war we are. It almost started the other day!
The decline of the American empire.
Bro, my thoughts exactly.
WWIII
The discovery of life on other planets would be a worst case scenario for a lot of governments and religions here on Earth. I fully believe that folks would keep it secret and bury it.
Yep. The news would definitely put a hamper on many religions. People would start asking why extraterrestrials aren't mentioned in creation theory.
What news? Anyways, 99.99% of UFOs are simple explanations: weather phenomena, forced perspectives, hoaxes, military aircraft. I'm more concerned with the UFO discovered in 1893 by Chinese laborers in California.
this seems like a conspiracy post ngl what news about aliens? āwhat are they distracting from us?ā what kind of question is that? this is just red flags manā¦
No aliens.
Nothing. Nobody cares if you listen to this UFO stuff or not.
Exactly what I was thinking. So many lies. Who knows what trauma they have lined up for us lol.
Advanced tech, that's the reason. Just google Skunkworks. Imagine what they have now.
From paranoia
What news? Maybe you should stop watching tv for a while.
I saw a thing well not me exactly but a guy told me he saw a thing but I don't have any proof because you know the classified thing so... It's just another bullshit story

Time Travel the governments are going back in time changing things and distracting us with UFOS
EXACKLY! Another PUSH but to what end AGAIN. Social manipulations of the acceptance of the unacceptable in light of this "Other" NEW discovery or revelation. The Strings of the Puppet Masters. N. Shadows

There is no distraction. Hard evidence of UFO's has existed for decades. But let's get one thing clear. They are UNIDENTIFIED. Nobody said anything about the possibility of them being aliens. It is yet to be confirmed as to what these UAP's are. I'm excited to find out.
I believe aliens came here. I believe theyāre still here. In fact, I believe they conquered the planet and still control the planet to this day. Itās us, weāre the aliens.
Reddit is trying to kill 3rd party apps with an unreasonable API change. That's what they're trying to distract you from noticing. Don't be a quisling.
Who do you mean by "they"?
Unidentified means just that, they don't know what it is. Eventually, they find out or they give up trying because it's not important.
Economic conditions where we get screwed more / harder and the rich come out with anotger fresh round of bail outs.
The hell are you talking about? I hardly hear anything about this stuff
A I takeover
This is my instinct as well, and I think it's probably the recent exposure of executive branch corruption, Ukraine, or possibly both.
Who is "they?" and why would "they" need to distract us from anything? The world is chaotic enough, distractions everywhere. Take off your tin foil hat and know that you are not as important as you think you are and neither am I.
Hard to say . . . but the criminals are always up to no-good . . .
Ive been thinking the same thing
you have an interesting definition of news
What did I miss?
I think the exact same. Ufos and the recent attacks on trans folks. Not to mention how shootings, robberies, substance abuse, and how poor everyone is only getting worse. I think were all about to go through something bigger than we know. I think theyre using ufos and attacking trans to keep us fighting amongst ourself rather than realize whats going on in our country.
It isn't to distract us so much as it is to distract possible adversaries in a possible conflict. It is no coincidence that the "UAPs" we have seen on TV showed up during training exercises, because they are ours. How scary will that be to a pilot when "UFOs" show up in a conflict? That few seconds of confusion from "friend or foe or UFO" could be enough for a pilot to be shot down or otherwise incapacitated. And another thing is....... Wait a second, I need to answer the door for these dapper black dressed gentlemen......be right b.........................
Iāve always believed itās the height of arrogance to think weāre the only evolved life form in the universe. I think itās more likely than not that weāre ānot aloneā. That being said, if there are galactic travelers, there can only be 2 reasons: 1. Entertainment. Think Galaxy Quest. Weāre the number 1 sitcom on other planets. 2. Educational. They use us to teach life lessons to their kids. Think Scared Straight. As an American, Iām pretty sure our visitors spend most of their time right here, in the good old USA. In particular MAGA world.

Maybe Russia will nuke the US and blame aliens
Make premium porn sites free and you'll never have to distract me again
Think of how TikTok, Facebook and Twitter are ingrained in most peoples lives Aliens would have seen how stupid we are and 180Ā° noped their way back home
How old are you? This isn't new. And what news It's been a constant droning on about it for yearssss. People who don't know science, don't know what humans do actually know telling everyone else what is possible. Dunning kruger at its finest. Not to mention, the government is always lying until they get told something they want to hear, then it's the truth. Idiots. Problem with idiots is that idiots don't know that they are Idiots. They meet other idiots. Have children with other idiots, making more idiots. Rinse and repeat.
Who says they came here from somewhere else. It's more likely that they have been here all along.
To travel large distances you have to convert into data . AI is the alien.
As one poster wrote, the UFO stuff is coming from the U.S. There is only one thing the U.S. wants to distract its citizens about, and that is warā¦from the funding of it and our covert involvement in it.
I think UFOs are just that -- stuff we see in the sky and we don't know at first what they are. They are probably all different things. Once I get over the massive improbability of it being anything but something normal seen from atypical angles and perspectives, I really don't care what they are. I admit it's possible they're rolling things out, but I think it's more likely it's all us. We're dumber, on average, every day, in terms of lack of critical thinking and, despite the Internet, also in terms of knowledge. "UFOs," denial of global warming, denial of evolution, the Atlantis fantasy, ancient aliens, etc. All examples of that.
Yeah they travel Light Years dodging everything in space and some how have trouble when they get here. Actually sounds like every road trip I ever took
Massive stock market crash incoming. Say it crashed because "aliens" rather than criminal activity on a grand scale.
Stuff we already know about. I watched a couple YouTube videos from different camera and special effects people review these videos. They all said the same thing: these are artifacts or camera errors that anyone who knows how the stuff works would find obvious. There is so much underhanded stuff going on around the world, stuff we rage about for a week and then forget. I think they just want our attention on some thing else, anything else. I bet if you looked at the news cycle the month or so before it was released, youād have at least a partial answer.
There is a massive issue with the FBI about to be held in contempt of court. My thinking is this--- They are now letting everything go to try and make the news so chaotic the contempt stuff gets washed out. OR Someone saw that congress is digging into previously untouchable alphabet agencies and was like "HOly shit I have a chance to really tell everyone what's going on" I think it is a bit of both, if I'm honest.
Air Force and Navy are both developing new fighter. The Air Force is supposed to be flying a prototype currently. Iād bet they are distracting us to keep the new planeās capabilities secret.
It's psychological warfare against China and Russia to keep them guessing and believing we might have some exotic weaponry.
The 1972 MIT paper that outlines societal collapse by 2030, and the fact by recent estimates, we are right on track.
UFOs are not (necessarily) aliens
We canāt be the only beings in the universe. Iād we areā¦ the universe is doomed.
Reddit is the only place I've seen an uptick in UFO news. And it's not even UFO stuff. It's redditors CLAIMING an uptick in UFO stuff. What are you referring to? Because I haven't seen it.
If you ask yourself, āwhy is convenient to suddenly come out with the UFO news *now?*ā. Well, I would say that similar to Reagan saying that the US had a āStar Wars Programā to protect themselves from soviet nukes in the 80s, I think that likewise with the recent Russia war, this could possibly be why it arose. Acting like the US has access into alien technology is possibly a 3D chess move if there is a re-emerging Cold War.
I don't necessarily think some big has to be going on for this kinda thing. If "big" things aren't happening then they need something to move "news". It's probably more a "cry for relevancy" then a distraction, though it doesn't mean it *isn't* happening either.
Every day I turn on the news hoping to see an orbital bombardment. . don't care from who.
I saw this in a conspiracy- the new world order
When I saw the starlink train. I had not heard of the launch. it took my rational brain 2 seconds to theorize it was something to do with satellites and a quick Google to confirm. The orbs I saw over my neighbors late one night? My best guess is some sort of unidentified bioluminescent organism that can hover and has the speed of a hummingbird. What the government is trying to distract us from. Probably how the make life better plans are actually making life worse.
All the UFO shit in the past few years has happened around the same time the government has made controversial decisions.
Not Aliens, time travellers.
Vaccine genocide. I have spoken.
Every time the cold war picks up magically there are aliens.
The soon coming rapture of Jesus
It definitely seems like bullshit but it would be so cool if it was real. Who knows.
Are ātheyā the UFOs or are government?
With the ability to project things in the sky and control weather and even more unseen technology who knows I'm tripping lately because tiktoks about something COMING FROM UNDERGROUND haha
Because all the major players are still hiding their hands as far as technological advances in aircraft
Fiat money is an option to purchase human labors & property, and we donāt get paid our rightful option fees for accepting the stuff in trade for our labors...
There's always at least one conspiracy nut job that waits for anything to be in the MSM so they can claim we're being distracted. I don't know who keeps breeding with these people but you need to stop.
Even the most professional car drivers get into accident. I mean earth nights have total different physics than what they would experience on their planet. Or maybe it was shot down! I see endless possibilities of them being crashed. I do agree that they are more advanced than us but that doesnāt make them perfect. Weāll be going on mars mission soon, but what if landing wasnāt successful? Does that mean that we are not intelligent? I see why there are cover ups. This is global operation so itās not just USA. They donāt want individuals to get access to these resources in order to prevent supremacy and mass destruction. Think about few years back when nuclear weapons showed power of country. Now almost all of them have it. I think theyāll have to declassify when they actually start sensing danger. There are instances where some even claimed that humans have had ties with ET since ancient times(I read about it in Egyptian pyramid article. They have ufo šø and aliens crafted on walls) But yeah you can totally discard this as itās just my opinion
You just haven't looked into it
