This kind of meme is disheartening seeing on Lemmy, that’s supposed to be full of open minded people. And I write that as someone who saw a real UFO in 1990 in Greece, together with others. The tech in 1990 was not there for the US to create a silent, gravity-defying, appearing and disappearing in-front-of-our-eyes vehicle. So this meme, AND the comments from the other lemmy posts in the last 2 days about the recent ufo events are rather insulting to me. The phenomenon is real.
Edit: Also, I don’t understand the downvotes! You downvote anything you find going against your grain? My experience is my experience and it’s equally as valid!
Don’t take it personal. Immature people will downvote you (which I personally dislike) and you can switch to an instance that doesnt have downvotes enabled. It was part of why I choose Lemmy.today.
Anyway about UFOs… A lot of people have seen them. But the reaction from the public is usually what you see here on Lemmy. I don’t think people here are more open to aliens than anywhere else.
You don’t need to convince anyone they exists. It actually doesn’t matter what people believe about this topic. :)
And since an interest exists to weaponize space and this narrative fits the bill it might be true or not, but a comitte hearing, the pentagon or the intelligence community are as helpful in finding the truth as blindly guessing.
The phenomenon is here since the late '40s. So militarizing space now might be about the phenomenon (or at least, in part). My problem is that many people think that this whole thing is a distraction. It’s not. It seems that several Congress members, from both parties, are interested in unveiling where trillions of dollars went by the military, that can’t account for most of it. And by digging, they found the ufo program, and they’re trying to get to the bottom of it. Instead, people see it the other way around: a monolithic evil government trying to distract us or scare us so they get more money. This is just laughable from where I sit, having experienced what I experienced, and having closely looking at what’s going on with the congress.
militarizing space now might be about the phenomenon
Just to be clear I did NOT have a shortage of explanations for the interest to militarize space.
That was already a given, much more so than any phenomena
seems that several Congress members, from both parties, are interested in unveiling where trillions of dollars went by the military
In the Oversight committee on national security? No way.
Its crazy how different interpretations can be. I was constantly roling my eyes listening to that hearing

I think you’re taking it too personal.
If it makes you feel better, for me its not about the phenomenon at all.
Its about the source not having any credibility when topics touching militarism and war are concerned.
