    I would also add things we consider conspiracy like UFO’s have been seen all over the world just other countries usually have a religious or spiritual reason for the sightings and thus they don’t become a conspiracy just part of their everyday life. Look up Jacques Vallee he does great research into this.

        That supports my comment fairly well and for the UK sightings being high my guess is crop circles they are extremely popular in UK because of the right to roam law that’s just my guess though

            I don’t think it’s accidently people who report crop circles usually are believers themselves and therefore are more likely to connect some prosiac anomaly in the sky the crop circle

                Haha I like you. I find it funny mainstream science will accept ball lightning when it’s just as pseudo as UFOs. I’m not a believer per say but I do think there is something about this phenomenon that is beyond our current perception. I could be wrong but seems like enough evidence to be researched imo

                  Here’s the deal, the ball lightning thing, it could be anything. But it’s typical of a certain kind of people to instantly jump to conclusions about aliens, illuminati, the JFK assassination and the moon landing because we don’t know.

                  Like, we know the crop circles are bullshit. It was a couple of guys doing it. In the 90’s. How many crop circles are being reported in 2024? None. Did the aliens just leave? Ok.

                    Yeah I understand the subject is rife with bs. On the other hand it’s annoying that we just immediately dismiss people who aren’t making conclusions about anything aliens or whatever, and are trying to actually investigate the real evidence in the phenomenon. Why immediately dismiss professional pilots testimony they are fucking trained to know what’s in the air if they say they don’t know what something is I’d investigate it. And you have people like Neil DeGrasse Tyson saying science is truth which doesn’t make any sense at all And if it turns out to be just secret government projects well I’m glad we figured it out
