or the aliens are just us experimental stealth planes

Or more accurately, total classified air flights. There's a reason so many reports happen near US military facilities.
This is my biggest problem with believing anything alien related; how come all of the video evidence is taken on a phone camera from 2001, and the fact basically all sightings happen in the US?
The people making this shit up have to try harder than that!
Let me guess, the source for this image is a US/western UFO reporting organization.
THEY'RE GONNA TERK ER JERBS!
THE ALIENS ARE COMING RIGHT FOR US!
BLAM
IIRC this was a study (survey?) done by a American company.
There are tons of UFO sighting in plenty of non-NA or EU countries such as Brazil and South Africa
^ this is true.
This post is insanely misleading.
^ this guy is right.
^ made the right call here
Like every shit post about aliens lately. Shit got old like immediately. Wake me up when we have actual evidence. Not just abductive reasoning.
This is just a heatmap of English speakers.
That's because the source of the data is an English website which collected only English reports.
That all these sightings just happen to occur in the US reminds me of how I'd watch old Dr Who episodes and chuckle at how all the aliens always ended up in the same sand pit in England.
That is because people are morons and don't know how cameras work. Even the military thinks things like low flying geese are some how aliens, when clearly their evidence is to the contrary. I am not saying that there aren't aliens. They probably do exist, but the evidence we keep getting shown for it is laughable.
Aliens only understand English speaking countries with just a dash of French mixed in
Aliens are allergic to Mexican food, apparently.
A more accurate title for this post could be: "English-Based UFO Reporting Organizations Primarily Receive Reports from, Unsurprisingly, English-Speaking Countries."
When the first dinosaur bone was discovered, noone had heard about it before and people believed that bones they found before were from some animals
After people knew about dinosaurs they started finding them other places in the world at a rapid pace. Many people thought it was all a hoax
So you know, unless you know about them you don't know what to report. And americans think most about aliens I guess.
That being said, probably there aren't secret aliens around. probably 🫣
So... what were they mistaking the aliens for?
I mean, the actual verified "alien craft" in America is actually more of a "not sure what that is" grainy footage in an age where Donald Trump tweeted out classified satellite images that showed the cameras we use are actually far more advanced and show far more detail than any we knew existed. And that technology was over a decade old at the time!
So… what were they mistaking the aliens for?
Ghosts. Spirits. Dragons. Or any other mythical creatures, or mythical phenomena of your choice.
If there were aliens, those are the descriptions I would expect through most of human history. And those are the descriptions I would expect in basically all the world, almost everywhere that isn't the US, even today.
So it couldn't be Americans mistaking ghosts for aliens? Or bigfoot, a creature that we haven't been able to verify because their culture advanced past ours and is able to cloak themselves and occasionally go on joyrides in their more advanced technology and forget to turn on the cloaking device? We have just as much evidence for all of these things.
You didn't get the point I made.
No, I'm pretty sure I fully understand you. I'm just pretty sure that people are either making it up or ascribing normal, terrestrial things that they don't understand as fantastical things. There aren't ghosts, spirits, dragons or aliens that have secretly visited earth but choses not to make actual contact. My point is that all of those things are equally unlikely. I assumed my over-the-top absurdity made that clear.
And I feel like you might be underestimating literally all of the world if you think these things are actually aliens. You're implying that they would assume something they don't understand is some mystical nonsense. That "almost everywhere that isn’t the US, even today" is superstitious and wouldn't know what aliens are.
I’m just pretty sure that people are either making it up or ascribing normal, terrestrial things that they don’t understand as fantastical things.
Yes.
As I said: If there were aliens, those fantastical things, are the descriptions I would expect through most of human history. And in most non US places. After all, aliens are a modern US legend, invented from Americans, for Americans.
I didn't say that there were any aliens anywhere. Or that there were any other fantastical things anywhere.
That “almost everywhere that isn’t the US, even today” is superstitious and wouldn’t know what aliens are
Didn't we just establish that aliens are superstition? I think you are overestimating how many people share "aliens" as the most popular superstition which comes to mind first.
Most of the US shares that. A lot of other places probably don't. Don't underestimate how many strange stories about strange things in the night are out there :D
Ya know what? I misread this interaction. My bad. I didn't realize we were arguing the same point. The last week has shown a lot of people on this site arguing fervently for the case of aliens visiting earth, and I made assumptions. I'm sorry buddy.
I have several relatives who "see" plots all the time. Every time I deal with them I get to hear about them. Bet you didn't know that there is a plot to turn frogs gay and convert our children into drag queens.
They sound like they do their own research. What lovely, intellectual people.
Americans trying to explain why the map looks like this

Do you think the US has more people than all of Asia or something?
No, but in this case it's not just population. If some potato farmer in northern Asia sees a UFO (especially before the proliferation of smartphones), how would it be reported and appear on this map? Lots of other reports come from pilots and such and again, far different distribution between continents.
Our senses and brains are remarkably easy to fool. Stage magicians even make a career out of making us think we've seen things we haven't.
How many times have you seen a shadow, or a silhouette and thought it was a person/monster/whatever? Our brains are wired to see familiar things in unfamiliar circumstances, and it bases it on things we're familiar with. UFO sightings follow predictable patterns based on what style or shape of "alien ship" are biggest in pop culture at the time. We conjure up monsters we saw in movies, or read about in books or magazines.
cause : effect; believing in things that don't exist, seeing things that don't exist. a casually religious friend says he's not worried about dying. expects to just wake up in heaven
We don't have bad video cameras here
