I don't care about UFO conspiracies, X-Files type of stuff. It's all nonsense.
Though I'm a pragmatist and a cynic, it doesn't mean that I can't have some abstract thoughts about our reality.
We are in a simulation, though it's not like in The Matrix. If someone wanted to create a Zoo-type scenario to test out evolutionary pathways, they wouldn't need to create a physical world. Yet the first thing they need to do for us is to "isolate" us. The universe seems infinite and impossible to travel. And we will never leave this rock, ever. The material and physics limitations are prohibitive. Except for Science Fiction, there is no way to
The simulation is not just for us, but for every living creature that's self-aware. I believe the simulation will end, and restart, once the evolutionary loop is complete.
Though the Analyst in Matrix Resurrections said something along the lines of "The more miserable people are, the easier they are to control." Well, look at the world around us today, then look back at history. There's never been continuous peace and harmony in this world, a point when everyone was content. It's not just human nature, it's how we're wired at the core level. Only struggles and conflict push evolution forward, especially technological evolution, since we're at that stage now.
So aliens, if they're out there, and they're superior to us, and we meet... well, we'd be in big trouble... if that were the case.
Just my two cents.

I'm sort of in the same camp, but I do believe "something" has been interacting with us over time. No idea what, but I believe the phenomena is real.
I used to not believe it was real and chalked it all up to hoaxes, kooks, charlatans and military craft. However, while that does make up a significant percentage of the cases, there are cases that are extraordinary and highly believable IMO. Takes a LOT of effort to sift through the bs in this field. But when you do, you come away with a different perspective. At least I did....

Lost me at the point the caption mentions a Zoom with former CIA directors. No matter what political party appoints them, they sure aren't very good at telling the average American the actual truth.
I can't speak with certainty but the universe is sooo vast and we actually know so little that I do lean toward certainly plausible.

Watch Mick West's videos on utube. He clearly shows most reports (even from the navy) are bogus.
For those who like to read, his site is metabunk.org.
All media, and your govt, are lying to you.

We don't seem well adapted to live on this rock. We run slow AF, we have one kid per litter and they are tasty slow running predator treats for the first 20 years of their life, the Sun will kill us if we stay exposed to it for to long, the planet's gravity breaks down our skeletal structure, we don't see well at night during the times the things we want to eat and the things that want to eat us are active.
In the beginning or either creation or evolution, we would have had to get beyond 2 people given all the above...odds seem low, especially if you think Africa was the cradle.

Not a fan of Mick West. He lost a lot of credibility with some of his analysis.
What about this story? NASA is already debunking it.

Yeah stuff like that is just dumb. There is no lack of hoaxes and garbage within this topic, but there are also cases that are incredible, from very credible people. Not only UFO/UAP, but otherworldly type phenomena.
And while most cling to the idea that physics doesn't allow for such, I disagree. Physics can't even agree on itself.
Technology transfers, backroom dealing, etc. See Movie: The Forgotten.
I've followed him for years. I'm always a skeptic and always scienced based in my thinking. With that said, that does not negate the fact that people have seen things, experienced things that could be NOT of this world.

It's possible aliens are 8" tall.
We think in our scale.
A JPL spokesperson told Snopes in an email that what appears like a doorway is actually a crevice on a Martian rock. By their estimates, the crevice is about approximately 11 inches wide and 17 inches across (30 cm X 45 cm), rather small for a doorway.
