I find it hilarious that none of the different levels of gov nor any of the gun owners have captured / shot down / brought down one of these drones yet. And the fact that it has been going on for so long, and the gov still doesn't have a clue who is behind it is absurd.

About 20 years ago my family was out in the states camping, probably another 50-100 people in the same area, night time.
At one point in the night, you could see a rotating UFO object very high up, had stable consistency, but would move 50-100ft N W S E at times while keeping the same height.
A few people noticed, then more, then more, this went on for like 20 minutes. Eventually alot of people gathered by the common bonfire as it was circling this area. There was alot of opinion, chatter, drunk russians placing bets, "aliens!", etc.
Eventually the object started lowering towards us a steady pace, at this point some drunks dipped the area from panic, others staring at the sky with their mouth open.
As it got closer, it was about 2-3ft in size still rotating, but now a white object appeared above it.
Then it got really close and you could hear two dudes 20ft away from the bonfire coughing up a lung laughing.
What was it? They tied a thin rope to a helium balloon, with a 2ft disk below it, on battery operated LEDs that turned on after a 5 min timer.
How was it moving? There was a dude literally walking around with a thin rope between the trees + the wind dragging it N W S E.
Man did people ever look stupid after it came down. Highly entertaining tho, hats off to the two dudes

I heard that a bunch of people in NJ were trying to shoot down the drones LOL. I can't find a news source for it but quite a bit of people were talking about it and it was trending on socials.

On the Axon chat, there were a few folks in there that didn't believe that people are inherently stupid. That most of the general population is stupid. It was a big whole debate in relation to storming the White House.. but your story is a great example of collective stupidity. AKA why people are inherently stupid.

I've been all over this from the start. I think the drones are from the US and they have been looking for something. It is said some radioactive material has gone missing which is presumed what the drones have been looking for. Of course it being the US government they would never admit that so they are claiming they know nothing about it.
Maybe there are some drones/orbs that are NHI but for the most part this is mostly human made drones.
X is an absolutely terrible platform to get news from.
There’s biased media… and what’s worse than that? Biased media that claims it’s not biased… everyone I know that’s an X devotee loves to say they fact check everything. Okay, well then how come 2 diametrically opposed angles on a story exist on the platform simultaneously with no fact checks on either? They both can’t be right? It immediately tailors your entire feed to whatever slant it thinks you’re on and assails you with corroborating information but if you search the opposite viewpoint it then immediately swings your feed that way.
It’s a great way to get indoctrinated by like minded individuals, that’s about it.
Maybe it's another Chinese spy device. I do not think that the CCP learned their lesson about not using spy balloons to spy on the American government and military.
Maybe China is modifying their domestic EVs to use them for recon duty?
Trump is warning of additional tariffs on Chinese imports. Chinese government replies "Fuck it! We might as well use our EVs as drones for military use to spy on those Americans".
It might be a broken arrow scenario, stolen or missing nuke or maybe a nuke was smuggled into the US, or perhaps a bioweapon, and they're frantically searching for it.
That could explain why every government agency is keeping quiet.

Have you had anyone from your circle of friends use Tik Tok as evidence-based news? I roll my eyes when we have Gen Z'ers use it as the frame of reference for the justification of why they deserve a $250,000 raise.

I was told this theory yesterday. A complete and utter conspiracy theorist told me about though so.. who knows. Broken clocks are right twice a day.

i was thinking just now that Pho is basically Cantonese pronunciation of "fun" aka rice noodles and that like ramen, Pho is basically Chinese influenced rice noodles.
Of course PHO nowadays is much more delicious than boring ass Chinese fun, but still its neat to think about the history.... now I want a bowl of pho.

There's a Broken Arrow in BC. The first one supposedly. In 1950 a B-36 crashed with/without a real/dummy nuke north of Smithers.
The USAF didn't publicly confirm the lost nuke till the 1980's.
Officially, they never found the nuke, and say it wasn't a live nuke.
^ Jaysus christ their accents are unbearable to listen to. They're like the Bejingers of Ireland r-this, r-that. I swear some Irish sound like Americans when they talk but these guys holy fuck take the rubber band outta your mouth.

Not really a conspiracy, I thought it was well known that a lot of Asian languages are derived from Chinese.
