500.000 sign up to storm Area 51 on September 20

[Fuzzy Bear]

Two things: the memes from this development have been awesome, and yes, the U.S. military most certainly can stop all of you (especially given that around 10 people are going to actually show up).

Again, we are living in such stupid times.

I saw a UFO a few months ago in the Everglades. Notwithstanding that:

There are probably countless planets in the galaxy that have life.
There is probably a small but respectable number of planets from where “aliens” are currently from.
It’s probably impossible to get here and if it turns out to be simply extremely difficult rather than impossible or simply “very challenging” to get here, it’s very hard to imagine them letting them also be noticed by us let alone staying in touch and sticking around in secret.

Though who knows? If it is just “very challenging “, maybe a few of the survivors of this protest will just come back with a big craving of sugar water.

It would really be a ribbon on the Trump legacy if we get the headline "Government forces at Area 51 kill 11,000 'for teh lolz' marchers"

That would be the crowning achievement of autistic internet politics of which both this “demonstration” and this administration is a product of.

I encourage all Kekistanis, sh**tposters, Channers, and Gamergaters (yes I know Gamergate happened 5 years ago but a depressingly large number of people are still making videos and posting about Anita Sarkeesian and the Lady Ghostbusters movie) to take part in this march

It is scientifically improbable that there aren't any aliens as smart as humans or smarter anywhere within this cluster of galaxies.

We don't know that actually. I would tend to agree with you, but it is entirely possible that the development of life is astronomically improbable and we're the only life in the observable universe. We just don't know enough about how likely life is to arise, and probably won't until we know how it arose here.

How about storming the government-run concentration camps?

How about storming the government-run concentration camps?

an antifa guy tried that a couple of days ago, he died.  Not sure why we're not talking about that.

I've already been to Area 51. There's nothing important there, guys. Sometimes the world really is as boring as it seems, that's why I act the way I do to make things more interesting.

I appreciate your honesty here.

Another stupid stunt that only serves to distract from real issues, like the sad reality that we're all paying taxes to a government that continues to conceal the fact that the Earth is flat.
