I would like to see an overlay of "Reported Demon and Angel sightings" from the past few thousand years.

You know, I do wonder what the map of cell phone and camera sales would look like overlaid onto this...

Aliens are allergic to Mexican food, apparently.

We don't have bad video cameras here

Would be interesting to divide these numbers by expected camera availability and surface area coverage. Consider how many more cameras are on any US military vehicle (there's at least 6 on every tank, for example) and those vehicles are spread across the world

It's just where they got appointed to film the blockbusters

I want ayylmao nutjobs to gb2 Reddit. Is it too much to ask? They infuriate me. I bet 100 buckaroos that these very same schizos are also Flat Earthers x QaNons.

You said right, REPORTED

Americans are very interested in aliens, and you'll note the heat map correlates with wealth (and thus smartphone access).

Some of the more interesting UAP encounters are entirely non-US

Its probably not entirely fair distribution you’re seeing. This starts way back in 1906? A country like China didn’t even have any tech growth till around the year 2000 basically. They don’t even have an open policy of sharing such things. Russia did for the longest time, but it’s limited due to the population distribution (basically 80% lives near the western border) so an enormous amount of ground is never watched let alone “stuff” being reported.. let alone that “stuff” getting out to media or the public.

The EU has always had a more open policy regarding UFO’s, especially Belgium shared a lot of footage over the years. But also much of South America openly shared stuff for the longest time. It’s only been the USA that turned into a “joke” but due to the paranoia people get whenever a government starts to deny things they first admitted too, people start to report anything and everything.

I saw an alien.

It was between 2010-2014 and i was recently gifted my first phone. A used Sony Ericsson w300i. Fast forward a few weeks later, i was on the roof playing with the filters on the phone camera. One of them was a Sepia filter and as tried it, i randomly pointed it toward the sky and then toward the sun. That's when i saw small dark object hovering near the very bright sun as to hide using it. It was shaped like a sphere and seemed very far up in the sky. It was very fast, it's movement unnatural as it was doing oval shaped circles around the sun.

I can't tell if this is a joke or not. I mean no reasonable person would conclude aliens from a flip phone camera using filter pointed directly at the sun with one of the worst lenses ever built for a camera in history.

I mean I laughed, so well done if that was the intent.
