This reminds me of old shows about Big Foot, Yeti, the Loch Ness Monster, etc... Now that many people can easily take videos/photos on there phones, it turns out there's a lot of official and police misconduct, bigotry, and people acting like dilholes in general, and not many monsters. At least not yet.

Similarly, miracles and credible supernatural events have all but stopped. Odd.

  Didn’t they just release a lot of military ufo videos. Most of them already debunked by several YouTubeers

    The end result of analyzing the UFO videos just ends up publicizing more and more details of military technology that should be kept secret. By that I don't mean that aliens are real, I mean the far more mundane implications of military espionage such as your enemy having extensive knowledge about your sensor capabilities because that is what most of these UFO sightings are, they are sensor artifacts.

There have been far more sightings and phone recordings of the LNM than there used to be. They just don't make the headlines any more. I'm agnostic about the LNM and don't lean either way. And of course this is now History Channel click-tainment, so it's not a serious topic. Even so - it's not factually correct to suggest there are no recent photos or videos of surface phenomena that seem to match the profile.
