   @aetios @sun hmmm I don’t know tbh, I mean the general idea is you don’t want adversaries having any information whatsoever about your experimental tech, but then your adversaries are not going to be fooled by UFO claims either, so you are only fooling your own population.
   
   Maybe it’s just mentally ill militarymen genuinely believing in it and “coming out” talking about it in public. When I was in the navy I knew many people with mental illness due to how toxic the military is, and many who committed suicide too.

     @asa @aetios I am losing faith in the “this is a multi decade ruse” argument. It costs so much money and effort to maintain if true

     @moth_ball @aetios @asa every scenario requires competence at keeping a secret though

     @sun @asa @aetios it would also require unprecedented competence with keeping government secrets which is really hard to believe

     @sun @aetios @asa You're right. I'm rooting for the "pretending to have big secret" angle myself

     @moth_ball @aetios @asa I hope we have exactly one working alien ufo we can pilot, it’s over 10,000 years old, it never runs out of fuel and we’ve never been able to reverse engineer a single part on it since the 1950s

     This is a very good documentary if you're interested in the subject of gov't ufology disinformation.

     Also, this is a rather odd vignette from the annals of US military ufology wtaf??
