Just look at the history of alien / UFO sightings. It all began at the beginning of WW2 and the Cold War. It is my humble opinion all just a psychological operation. Some benefits that a government would have doing such a thing would be: Division, misdirection of MSM and population, other news that is very important is intentionally being sandbagged. Fear, Hysteria, & Confusion allows further tightening of control of a society and prompts consent to loss of liberty in exchange for false security. It also increases government support. As well as an intimidation tactic to their enemies that they possibly have much stronger weapons / tech that they let on.
- Aperocky 3y agoThis doesn't pass the occam's razor. The simplest explanation are mental illness, shameless fame seekers and confused people who saw rocket debris or some supersonic fighter.
- jfoutz 3y agoNot really getting that the speed of light is a universal speed limit is simpler. I want to believe. So I'll spend more time than is wise evaluating evidence. But, like, it's gotta be some really good evidence.
- necovek 3y agoSo far, all of the "laws of physics" have turned out to be true, if they were considered an approximation applicable with a certain set of preconditions. My only hope for human kind travelling interstellar distances is to figure something orthogonal out, as even speed of light is too slow (perhaps we extend our lifetimes to span millenia combined with teleportation? :).

- anon84873628 3y agoThe typical reply to this is that it wasn't until the 20th century that people had enough understanding of the universe to view them as aliens. Previously they would be angels, demons, gods etc. But the idea that the government is manipulating people to seize power goes back a long way too...
