For the record, I am what would be considered as a “believer”. Been on this subreddit since 2013 and was blown away in 2017 and have been pretty obsessed ever since. On one hand, I am finding it hard to explain some of the US Defense videos published as well as Grusch’ testimony. Not to mention all of the whistleblowers who are yet to speak out, who seemingly do exist based on some reporters who seem to be mostly correct.
On the other hand, one of the most common points made by sceptics in refuting the existence of a clearly non human engagement with this planet through means of giant mechanical structures is that as soon as we got better access to cameras, these wild reports and pictures suddenly stopped. And I don’t mean seeing a fast travelling, darting and swerving objects far into the night sky that is filmed as we see here quite often and seem like small dots on video, but I mean those classic photos of an up close disc, triangle etc.
Those kind of photos are legendary for a reason. The McMinville photo, the Westall “bell” UFO photo, those photos over the ocean apparently taken by the Navy. Until the mid 2000’s, you could easily argue that these were right place right time, but this argument has slipped away given our current circumstances. We have the highest population in history, with the most people living in a city at a time, with every city on Earth pretty much being mass surveiled through means of smart phones, dash cams, general CCTV surveillance. The amount of cameras on this planet is downright mind boggling, and yet these sightings and pictures have completely stopped. We hear about close encounters with craft, but we don’t get photos anymore. That is hard to explain away.
As I previously said, it’s difficult to dismiss cases such as the Nimitz because of it’s corroboration by Fravor, Dietrich accompanied with actual video and apparently hard data – but we also have to consider there is a slight chance that this could be a government testing something. Seems unlikely given it’s capability, but we cannot be sure.
I really don’t think there is a solid argument against this point made by sceptics, and the significant lack of photographed craft in the modern era almost dismisses these awesome photos and the witness testimony behind them.
