A bunch of the “drones” are just distant aircraft that appear ro be moving slowly like a drone might because of the distance. Called out a couple that were super-obvious with features like landing lights, anticollision lights, beacon, etc. all in the correct places for an airplane and not a drone. Promptly got blocked by the person I replied to.

They want their conspiracies and mysteries for clicks, they’re also posting fakes deliberately.

Some politician posted a video of "drones" in the sky and it was literally the constellation of Orion.
