Absurd. It falls apart as even the most basic level, because outside of communities like this most people still have no idea this is happening. It's being largely ignored by the media. Plus, hundreds of pilots have seen things and we'll see more and more come forward in the coming weeks. If the government doesn't want you to know about something, they don't have to create a diversion, they simply don't report it.
How is it that this is being ignored by the media when the post is literally an NPR article about it?
*keep in mind this is all just speculation and intuition I'm not trying to make solid political opinions or anything.
Sorry I think you misunderstood?
This is not what I meant. It's the opposite. They brought it (uap info) out to gather peoples attention. A new system of reporting on uap occurances is obviously somehing missing in [countries], but the government pr and the media may be trying to distract people from something else, like the social uprising since 2020 that started to collapse faith in governments.
I don't think anything about the hear was false or anything, I just believe government media is trying to use this to bring a new need for government in a time when people are realizing governments aren't some magic altruistic good entity.
An inorganic organized timeline made from organic natural occurances.
I am in no way denying a need for pilots and people to speak up. I just think this situation is being used.
I don't think a whistleblower alleging a 80-year gaslighting campaign does much to raise anybody's feelings for a, "new need for government in a time when people are realizing governments aren't some magic altruistic good entity."
The media is largely ignoring this topic. It's a grass roots affair.
The Guardian was covering it live, the link here is NPR, loads of places were covering it lmao. It's just the majority of people aren't gullible fucking idiots that believe the first cunt to come along and tell them that there's totes aliens visiting us, bro.
