UFOs are a conspiracy theory?

[–] rikudou@lemmings.world 3 points 9 months ago

The alien ones? Yeah.

[–] SlopppyEngineer@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

UFOs itself, no.

That the government is hiding evidence of UFO and aliens, yes.

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I think it makes sense. No way they would share that with the public. But sure, doesn't mean there are aliens. But if there is, they are not gonna share it. :)

If somebody in government knew about it, they would've already used it to deflect from whatever stupid thing they did, blame bad economy on the aliens and try go get voted in on fighting the UFOs and needing budget for defense, or just to cause widespread panic and looting which as we all know is a lot better than to let the other party win the election.
