Did nasa release any evidence supporting the human traffiking and the other issue you mention? because they have not said it's not real. NASA already made official statements acknowledging that there are uaps all over the world, they are now saying that they don't have evidence that it's aliens. they have not said it's not real we have passed that point.

The person you replied to said extraterrestrial not UAP.

[–] 5BC2E7@lemmy.world -3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

yes and given the dismissive tone I believe that he doesn't make any distinction between uap and ufo, nhi and aliens.

[–] nul@programming.dev 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Doesn't sound dismissive to my ear. Sounds like they believe nhi are likely out there, but our attention is being maliciously diverted by the classical specter of "little green men" for the purposes of politics and control. That's my read, anyway.

I hope he can clarify. your interpretation seems equally valid to me, i just did not see it until you said it.

EDIT: he made it clear with his reply, it's all the same in his mind.

Yes, of course UAPs are real, it literally just means "stuff in the sky that we don't know for certain what it is", what it doesn't mean is "aliens", hence NASAs statement

they have not said it's not real we have passed that point.

Again, they said UAPs are real (which again, duh), not that aliens are real

I am not sure what is your point. It’s clear to me and It might be clear to you, but you should look at the comments and realize that a few people struggle to accept that its not a hoax.

[–] bitsplease@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'd imagine that any person who says that UAPs aren't real, isn't aware of the actual definition of UAP. for which, frankly, I blame conspiracy theorists for conflating the term "UAP" with "aliens" just like they did with UFO

[–] 5BC2E7@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Yes. absolutely.
