People going crazy because they've never thought about planes or stars before (strange "drones" invading America)

All this stuff happening over there is so funny. It's just a simple social contagion where people hear stories about drones in the night sky so they pay attention to the night sky for the first time ever.

Post the best "drone" videos here. Let's get to the bottom of this.

Every single video I've analyzed of this phenomenon has been either a normal helicopter or plane.

I'm open to being proven wrong, but extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

Funny seeing some of the replies. People want to believe!

i didn't really read into the headline about the drones in NY/NJ.   were they not real?


especially after that chinese hot air ballon i'm not going to fully dismiss the idea that drones are in use for nefarious means.  but yeah, that tweet 2 up is pretty funny.

They were not real, or else there was a real one on the first day and everything since then has not been real. No actual evidence of there ever being something strange happening.

Pretty dangerous actually. People are shining lasers at airplanes to "fight back" or whatever.

Still watching, but it was relevant.

Is it worth a watch? I've seen a lot of buzz about drones over Jersey but haven't had the time to dig into it. Curious if this vid adds any new insights!

Talked about
- how they're not sure what the first thing was. 
- how everything that came after was the result of the first thing causing interest and people are now scanning the sky and seeing unidentified things. 
- a similar thing happened in Colorado in 2019.

You said Colorado so I skipped to that part in the video.

Don't think our thing was at all as big because even as a guy living here I don't think I remember it.

I could tell his intro was from 2019 though

wow shocker, it was nothing. just regular FAA authorized drones.

to me the most surprising thing is trump's administration declared it safe instead of declaring something absurd like blaming biden/clinton/obama and say they were using them to reassign children's gender...

it's funny seeing so many think "so the faa was behind those evil invasion drones" instead of understanding what was actually shared today.

are people saying that??

our country is filled with waay too many dumb people.  i watched the video of the announcement.   she stumbled her words several times (due to nerves imo) but the message was pretty clear and without any ambigiouity.   


...then again trumped tried to nullify the constitution with an executive order and i saw republicans in congress say they think the supreme court will side with trump.   clearly words have no meaning and anything you want to be true can be true via the power of not giving a fuk.
