          How sure are we that u/colmear isn’t just an alt of OP? It could be just OP claiming they don’t live in the US!

    Why didn’t they just say “in all states…” puzzles me. What other states can we be talking about?

        Yeah, but no one actually lives there, right? And if they do, they’re certainly not on the internet.

      You speak English because it’s the only language you know.

      I have never thought about the alien sighting thing. Are they really all or mostly in the US?

          One could certainly note that America also spends by far the most on things like stealth bombers and fighters, or that the most common types of sightings oh-so-coincidentally end up matching the profiles of those stealth planes once they become common knowledge.

            I don’t remember where I read it (this was years ago) but The US had purposely experimented during the cold war with making people think they’ve seen ufo’s to gauge their reactions and to feed the frenzy to make russia think they have more tech than they actually do.

      United States states, yeah that makes sense. States within the boundaries of the United States. How else would you say it? If you just say “states” it doesn’t necessarily clarify them to be American states but could be ones in other countries.

    I feel like this subreddit didn’t need bringing over from Reddit, it’s clearly just as weak as the original

  • Personal appearance (“You’re fat”, “You’re ugly”)
  • Posts with little-to-no context
  • Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
  • Dick jokes, “Yo mama”, “No, you” type responses and other low effort insults
  • “Your values are bad” without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong (“I believe in capitalism” - “Well, then you must be evil” or “Fuck you you ignorant asshole”)

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
