Key takeaway: still no empirical evidence of aliens.
World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Yeah, but this time it really felt like it was true!
Feels over reals!
Well, not quite. The evidence Grusch said he had is still classified and so is being presented to Congress in a secure manner, not in a public hearing.
Given how quickly Congress is acting, it seems they did in fact get some real evidence presented.
Sorry, "they know something we don't" and "they are acting quickly" are not empirical evidence for aliens.
No, but "I can give specifics names, locations, and documents in a SCIF" is.
No it is not. That is a claim, not evidence.
I'm just going to wait for Anton to cover this.
I look forward to that too, he was really uncomfortable reporting about that Nasa/UAP study a while back. 🙂 This is even juicier!
No evidence. All bullshit. Just like everything else that comes from congress.
At this point nothing congress does has any credibility. They’ve already demonstrated that they will play any game and do anything for that lobby money.
The only thing congress has a good reputation for is lying to the public.
Show me real evidence or save your self the time and shut the fuck up.

Those groups are entirely to credulous.
They "want to believe" so bad that they'll jump at any claim no matter how extraordinary without even a scent of proof...
Sick burn!
Er, not intended, just trying to drive traffic to those communities to get them more active. People seem to be unhappy about my comment, though...
Spamming other communities is a bad look dude. That’s why people are upset.
You might as well paste ads every where. No one wants to see that garbage.
