This drone scare is very clearly mostly hype even if there are some real mystery cases. It’s not even the first time this sort of thing happened.
The era of people claiming to see flying saucer-shaped craft started in 1947 when a pilot named Kenneth Arnold said he saw UFOs “moving like a saucer would if skipped across water.” He never actually said they were shaped like saucers. But then suddenly people were swearing they were seeing flying saucers everywhere and even taking photos of things they claimed were flying saucers that turned out to have simple explanations.
The idea of “if the government says it, it’s always a lie” comes from conservatives. Even pathological liars tell the truth sometimes and the government really doesn’t have any good reason to lie that those videos likely show planes.
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
