Is this satire?
"Massive" "large aircraft"
That's a pretty damned big drone.
For private recreational, maybe. But not for military drills or adversary spying.
Well how did the government" think people would react when they saw all this bizarre **** in the sky?El Gallo Blanco said:
I hate the government and want transparency as much as anyone, but, hypothetically, if the theories that they are monitoring for radioactivity/potential WMD were true, I could see why they wouldn't be completely forthcoming. Also a few other potential scenarios where hiding the truth might be somewhat justified.

All this time we were saying "I hope they don't do something irresponsible like putting AI in a fighter jet or bomber".
They said "we're not going to do that", while developing drones and will eventually be AI.

I still think there's a ton of circular nonsense to at least most of this and it's perpetuating itself. The vast majority of people have no skill identifying what they're looking at in the sky, especially at night. And once this became a story weeks ago there has been an exponential increase in the number of people actively looking and paying attention. And every balloon, plane, kite, helicopter, blimp, drone, planet, and blinking tower on a hill has now become "Oh my gosh, they're over my house, too!!!" on social media and so the news says the number of sightings has been increasing everywhere, which causes even more now-worried but generally ignorant people to go and look.
The only "interesting" ones seemed to have involved things like gunfire and other things now shown to have been faked, or else anecdotes like 50 coming in off the ocean which may be true but where we have nothing to look at.
It's funny b/c I know who the guy is and he's a neighbor of mine. And I flew my drone over the neighborhood all summer and not one person noticed.

I don't know a single person who is freaking out over these drones to be honest.

They didn't think that far ahead?
Hiding the truth behind this drone/light show, means a cover story or lie. And how would the lie make Americans feel? anxious? I doubt we're near the truth.
President-elect Trump on drones: "The government knows what is happening. Look, our military knows where they took off from. If it's a garage they can go right into that garage. They know where it came from and where it went. For some reason they don't want to comment." pic.twitter.com/JdITHAv4KJ

Frankly this is why I hate Trump. If you know something, just freaking say it. Quit playing coy and insinuating that there is something nefarious going on.

I still don't know what to make of it all. I haven't seen any singular video or picture that makes me say "Wow, what is that???" They're not dragons, or Star Destroyers, or fork-tailed devils, they're just typical drones and planes and helicopters with standard navigation lights. It's like a bunch of people spontaneously said "Wow, I never noticed that so much stuff is flying over us all the time." And that news caused more people to look, and then more people. But all I see (so far) is the same stuff that's always there. But it's not like I've seen every video so maybe I'm missing something. If nothing else it's an interesting study of human behavior. And if there's more to it then I'll be curious about that too, and I'm continuing to follow it.El Gallo Blanco said:I don't know a single person who is freaking out over these drones to be honest.

Now if it were released that they were sweeping large areas because of some type of imminent terrorist threat/WMD detection etc., you would have that entire side of the country, and much more, freaking the hell out.
All that said, I don't trust the govt one bit and this is probably them.

What is the current admin going to do to a former President and the current President Elect going to do if he does disclose something 30 days prior to "officially" taking office?
Are they going to spy on him coming into office, are they going to perpetrate a baseless and conspiratorial "Russia Hoax" on him, then do everything they can to hurt/derail him or sabotage his presidency? Are they going to try to take his wealth? Jail him? ASSASSINATE him? Are the feds and intel community going to conspire with big tech and the media to interfere in a presidential election in hopes of propping up their preferred candidate?

I have only ever seen tiny little toy handheld drones in real life. These are significantly bigger.

Completely agree. Just because we don't have and haven't had a real POTUS for several years does not allow for Trump to take over today. It was a stupid comment to make that Trump has to be the truth bearer right now. Imagine the wailing and crying if the actually did something. "you can't do that, you aren't president. Insurrection".aezmvp said:
The problem is that it is likely classified and he is not President yet and as such can't declassify it. So he has to be somewhat circumspect.
They are probably planting some false information (told only to him) in his classified briefings just to hope he leaks it so they can then open a fresh investigation/FISA 702 approvals on all of his associates etc.El Gallo Blanco said:Are they going to spy on him coming into office, are they going to perpetrate a baseless and conspiratorial "Russia Hoax" on him, then do everything they can to hurt/derail him or sabotage his presidency?

So much unprecedented crap that makes Watergate look like youth group shenanigans. You act like none of this stuff transpired over the last 8 yrs. Maybe go suck your thumb and read "Gender Queer". Sorry your girl lost.
I get that. I'm just not sure yet they are bigger. How are people able to tell they're 8 feet across instead of 3 feet across in the dark from a mile away? I don't think they're toys, but there is an enormous amount of crap in the air at all times. Like I said, I'm not saying nothing unusual is going on, maybe there is, I have no way to know that, I just don't seem to be seeing what everyone else is so far. I'm curious to see what I'm missing though.El Gallo Blanco said:I have only ever seen tiny little toy handheld drones in real life. These are significantly bigger.
