A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

COVID, UFO/UAP's...the list goes on and on. Conspiracy theories are actually turning out to be the most reliable news sources. The MSM has proved over and over that they are just shills for whatever government they serve and we can't believe anything they put out as news.
UFOs. Seriously.
To be fair the Fermi paradox says we should have evidence of extraterrestrial life already. There are a few possible explanations and one of them being "the government keeps them hidden" isn't exactly the most unlikely.
No, MSM aren't all shills for governments, it's just that most of the time the corporations they're owned by and the government have a shared interest in keeping up the status quo because they both depend on it. That's the problem with 99% of conspiracy theories, they but the blame on a cabal of evil people acting behind the curtain, which in most cases blatantly false (there is no Jewish/Reptiloid/Illuminati NWO conspiracy) and where there's a grain of truth to them they completely ignore the structural reasons that lead to people and institutions doing bad shit, i.e. systems of power which the actors that benefit from them want to keep alive
