In reply to the discussion: Drones!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [View all]Sympthsical
(10,404 posts)Of a hovering object pulsating with plasma on camera for an extended period of time. Reddit was going wild over it.
I glanced and immediately recognized that someone was filming Jupiter out of focus, lol.
I have lost so much respect for people during this. It's entertaining as shit, make no mistake. But good lord, people are wilding now. Rational and reality-based is yesterday. We're conspiracy and hysteria all day now, baby.
"Why would the media run with this?" Because clicks and eyeballs.
"Why would someone make it up?" Social media clout and attention
"But what about the car-sized drone!" Humans are bad at judging size, distance, and direction, particularly at night.

Who knows who's flying various drones around, but they're probably having the best of times watching the reaction.
Or maybe aliens really are chilling around New Jersey. Maybe they're still pissed about the Sopranos ending.
