aliens.gov: Regardless of political lean, we should all realize this was a foolish choice on the part of the US government. Most of us don't appreciate when politicians mock their constituents. This is a bipartisan topic of interest that the government has chosen to mock. I'm not against lighthearted jokes, but the UFO topic has reportedly involved murder of US citizens via misappropriated funds. To mock our citizens who care about this - and to distract from that cause and the brave people trying to get clarity on it - is a move that shouldn't and doesn't sit well with Americans. I likely have different politics than many here, and that's the point - this has nothing to do with politics - this particular event is the government disrespecting and mocking its voters. I personally know many people who were just warming up to the realities of the UFO topic, and having spoken to them, this stunt clearly sets back the cause dramatically. I encourage all of us, regardless of political lean, to unite behind the message that mocking the real interests of Americans is not okay. With a topic already steeped in stigma, there really is not room for this type of gaslighting by the government. I sincerely hope that Luna, Burlison, Burchett, and others will express clarity on this and push to correct it. Speak out clearly on the truth, and take down that website that tries to make a joke out of decades of government corruption. submitted by /u/UAP_Reporters [link] [comments]
