THEY'RE GONNA TERK ER JERBS!

This is a heatmap of English speakers.

IIRC this was a study 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

Or maybe we're just really bored and stupid.

I think its a mix of idiots everywhere, and the government secretly testing prototype aircraft. The idiots see the prototype aircraft, don't recognize it, and immediately go "eyljuhns!"

Because that's where the freak show is.

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 🫣

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!

Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. "Mankind." That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it's fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom... Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution... but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: "We will not go quietly into the night!" We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!

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 looks more like a map of any English speaking news source I would see online. I mean I see us politics and us topics on lemmy and my local newspaper all the time, but hardly ever hear anything from far away places like Ghana, Romania, south America, middle east or south east asia unless in specifically look for it on some lesser known sites.

And what's that weird dividing line in the middle? Do they just stop and go: "nope, gotta focus on the East Coast, sorry bruh"?

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.

Meanwhile the Netherlands chilling with the extraterrestrials.

Maybe that's where they got their terraforming abilities.

The USA is very interested in aliens*

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.

Americans trying to explain why the map looks like this

they are trying to recreate the movies

They're still trying to find the team that crashed in Roswell.

Apparently, aliens are very interested in anglophone countries
