That's a few references I've seen regarding aliens today. I'm feeling out of the loop, would anyone explain?

A former intel officer testified to a house committee that the US has had a UFO retrieval program for years, and that we've recovered non-human "biologics" from the crash sites. He has no direct knowledge of anything, by his own admission, but he's willing to provide more detail to congress in a secure facility.

I'll keep the possibility open, I guess, but it sounds like absolute bullshit for a variety of reasons.

Those aliens must be really shit pilots if they keep crashing on Earth

Imagine developing interstellar travel and not taking the time to teach you guys how to drive.

What if it's just teenagers taking the craft out for a joyride.

[-] Wilziac@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I like the theory that all of the crashed alien ships are from the aliens "B-Team" and the reason they keep crashing is because the actual good pilots are off doing actually important things and the ones we see are just bad at their jobs.

They make it however many billions of miles out here to Earth and then crash on the planet. How embarrassing for them.

Like that dog the Russians sent up? That would be nonhuman.

Hitting a pasture and landing in cow shit would account for "non-human biologics." I'm incredibly skeptical.

It’s also funny how all these aliens keep crashing into the US, where three-letter agencies are fantastic at coverups, and none of ‘em end up in countries where it’d be much harder to hide something like this.

The U.S. recently passed a law requiring the government to start disclosing all known(lol) information on UFOs/UAPs. The first congressional hearing was yesterday but was basically a verbal redacted/censored CIA document from the 60s.

About half of what was asked was responded with "I can't say in public."

I believe it's this amendment to the funding bill that was passed yesterday. Unless there was another bill I'm not aware of

A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules

1. Be niceDo not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

11. No misinformation

NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.
