All this "UAP" bullshit flying around right now is clearly and obviously hiding something else because when you say "it's aliens" nobody pays any attention to what 'it' is.

I dunno, actually. The choke hold on the domestic information pipeline that the US gov't may have once enjoyed is obviously not as strong as it once was. Social media is a monster of its own summoning. Uncontrollable, often.

For the life of me I cannot see how it is physically possible that many of the videos I've seen are anything but sensor artifacts, doctored footage, etc., like, there is no physics that I know of that would make some of the objects being physical and moving as if they seem to be possible. I can't speak to pilot testimony. But I'd like to think that if I was an equivalent physicist in the 50s or 60s limited to all of the knowledge base of the time, my response to the "it's aliensssssss man" angle would be different. There was much more room for secretive military tech ops back then, I think. The public was entirely unfamiliar with space, for starters.

Almost forgot, but I read about Skunkworks in sixth grade for a book report. My dad reminded me the other day when he was passing through Roswell.

Maybe we could have the internet's Most Reasonable UAP thread. Nah, I don't think you'd enjoy that... *winkwinkwinkwinkwinkwninwknwinwinwkwni
