    Then why bother with the whole uap shit to begin with?

    You don’t see congressional hearings about “unexplained ancient phenomenon” for archeology sites or " unexplained underwater fornication" for unknown marine mating behaviors.

    Of course there are some things that are unknown. But uap really mean “aliens” and we know it.

    I’ll stop being a dick when “ufologists” stop making a big deal about every fuzzy photo they can find.

      Because UAPs represent everything from legitimate national security risks to funded programs with little or no oversight.

      You’re so bent out of shape with “NOT ALIENS OMG BRO” that you’re not seeing the real-world impact.

      You could just assume that actual, professional scientists know more than you do.

        Oh, they do. And they say it’s not aliens.
