    Of course Fox will push any distraction that takes the focus away from their twice impeached, thrice indicted, cheating, lying, pathetic baby of a presidential candidate.

    TL;DW: The answer was a bipartisan “Yes”.

      I’d argue this has been bubbling under the surface since 2017 and maybe even earlier, however, I’m unable to completely dismiss this as political theater’.

        It has been building up for a while, but if this didn’t become mainstream in the middle of one of the hottest weeks of all time, I’d buy into it. However, between the Russia-Ukraine war and temperatures ruining the global south’s winter, we’re getting news that gives us actual reason to worry about food insecurity. With that, and the former president going through a massive criminal trial right now, the government making a big deal out of aliens all of a sudden feels like a red herring. A really good red herring, pretty much the only reasonable option to promote American unity, but I still think it’s a red herring.

        The west as a whole is going to have a really rough year. Losing Russian/Ukrainian oil and food exports is rough. South America losing its agriculture, even if it’s only a year, is big enough to actually cause a recession. On top of this, the world is no longer unipolar, America is no longer the #1 superpower, we’re sharing that spot with China now. All of this in a period where writers and actors are striking so the distractions are slowing down. America is seeing some really shitty times coming, but America is also worse equipped than ever to deal with them.

        I’m not a massive conspiracy theorist or a future teller, I can’t tell you what the fuck is going to happen from here. But what I can tell you is that 2024 will end up as a full chapter in the world history books in 50 years. We’re about to be history book entries, and that’s so fucking scary that the government is pulling out aliens as a hail mary to unite the country more so it’s not disasterous.

          I may not share your sentiment, but you make a lot of great points in regards to the times we are currently living in. Thanks for elaborating on your position. Hopefully we will find out soon enough if it’s political theater or something more.

          Edit: Corrected some grammar.

            I hope even if it’s political theater, we get some actual answers out of it. I’m sure the CIA has info they’re not telling us, there’s definitely something else out there. But realistically, aliens should be low on the priority list for American politicians right now.
