This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Why did /r/ufo start hitting the front page after citizen citrus groped his way into the White House, both the first and second time? Did trump campaign on releasing UFO info?

Every time I had seen it hit the fp when I still used Reddit, it was because some new ex-military person came out saying they had proof that the US government had aliens and alien craft... Only for it to be a big ol' fat nothing burger.

Remember when there was all those drones and everyone was convinced it was either a Russian invasion or aliens and then, nothing

While I enjoy speculating over UFO/UAP footage, it can be abused by a lot of media to take the spotlight off of some other very real and most likely concerning news.

Trump is speed running the collapse of a nation, so it makes sense for coverage to deviate to UFO/other news when he's doing dodgies.
