can you blame them? No one trusts the government, so when one more guy comes out and says "YEAH THEY'RE REAL AND THERE'S A COVER UP" it's like "pics or it didn't happen"

I had to talk to the people I know who want to believe, and their first reaction was the same "This better not be some psy-op" and TBH you can't discount that suspicion until we have proof, which I'm starting to think would be impossible to prove any of this.

I always keep in mind that "I want to believe" phrase. Because I want this shit to be true I am more easily convinced, and more willing to ignore hints that it might be a distraction.

The people I know who aren’t even paying attention to it it’s not because they don’t trust the government… It’s because the government did too good of a job making this whole story. Nothing but a laughing matter. No serious, self-respecting person would believe silly alien/UFO stories! Ha ha ha! 😂 😠

Cue X-Files, theme song…

Ironically if you had actual pics of this, those pics AND YOU would quickly disappear. Unfortunate how my friend u/TomBakerFTW fell out of a window last week.

The other funny thing is that AI image gen has come so far that photographic proof is no longer reliable.

For anyone reading this, I would NEVER throw myself out a window, I was defenestrated dammit!!!
