When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

it's extremely funny to me that we have official records from different source and different countries corroborating that we have seen objects defying the laws of physics as we know it, and yet you have self proclaimed "scientists" and "engineers" breaking down the walls sweating angrily at the possibility of people excited to do science and research something new and unknown. let's research this and find out what the phenomena is.

Actually it's a rare unknown natural phenomenon which means there is no need to talk about it at all.

conspiracy-minded people* tend to think someone's in control behind the scenes, but this just looks like snowballing public interest to me so far.

still think most likely outcome is a uselessly vague "report" and everyone's like "haha remember those two months in 2021 when we thought alien disclosure was coming?"

I'm with you to a degree but if you look at the twitter comments about that it's mostly making GBS threads on ESPN for daring to waste anyone's time asking about UFOs so I dunno
If I was trying to launder the concept to people slipping it into one of the most watched sports broadcasts and skeptics podcasts seems like the first things I'd be doing

This is obviously a coordinated effort. It's been obvious since Elizondo's first interview. You don't just quit a job at the DoD and start talking about all the cool classified poo poo you saw and have the DoD go "Oh yeah, you got us, we totally don't know what those things are. Haha I guess we'll release more videos, just for you."

He 100% has been told to do this.

The real question is why, and I'm leaning towards "DoD wants to know what these things are almost as much as we do."
