Basically the same except we're gonna generally agree that aliens are real and not just somewhere in the abyss of space. Feel free to disagree, but that's where I'm at after the last few months - most specifically with Schumer's UAP Disclosure Act. Won't be mad if I'm wrong, but it sure as hell feels like it's coming and quick.
If it turns out that the American government managed to hide the existence for aliens and then randomly just told everyone because somebody forced them to that will be amazing.
If they're prepared to talk about it that almost certainly means that they're not aliens.
The US military can more or less just do whatever they want they could totally ignore demands to release information, they could just say oh that was just a classified aircraft test our pilots weren't told about because it's above their pay grade, and we cannot release this information for national security reasons.
I think you're pretty close. I think it is aliens (of some kind) but if not, it also means that either my government is lying to me (par for the course) or there's some real crazy people high up that need to go.
So, even if it's not something beyond our current belief about life or there's some real fuckery that needs to be dealt with swiftly.
Based on the UAP Disclosure Act, I'm feeling pretty confident it is aliens of some kind. But at the very least, it sure looks like we're gonna get a lot more than "yes, there are things in the sky our government cannot identify".
Either way, the last few months have been a wild ride and ive enjoyed every moment of it. But, if it's fuckery, my congresspeople and senator are gonna be hearing a lot more from me than they already have. Personally, I'm done with being lied to about shit like Iraq and funding the war machine and it's time to focus on the real issues at hand. I just think one of those is gonna be ayylmaos.
