Ok

Donald's just jelly, he wants his micky D's delivered via drone.

What’s the likelihood this turns out to be true on a few accounts, but grossly explained by mass panic?

Admittedly, I’ve only read a couple of articles.

That is how UFO sighting "waves" - like the famous wave of UFO sightings over Washington, DC in the summer of 1952 - were explained. They were basically mass hysteria fed by press publicity and people seeing ordinary objects like stars, meteors, airplanes, etc. and turning it into something creepy or sinister when it really wasn't.

I think this may be the stupidest national story in a very long time.

You mean since all the stories of the "open" southern border? Because that doesn't seem like a very long time ago.

2 arrested in Boston as investigations continue into drone sightings in the Northeast

Officials have said there’s no evidence that the sightings pose a national security or public safety threat.

We’ve long been impossibly stupid. The Internet and social media lets us easily share and spread our stupidity.

Absolutely. It's one of several reasons I dropped social media in 2018.

You do realize that this site is also social media, correct?

I don't believe it is social media the way people think of TikTok as social media.

It's the Flintstones vs the Jetsons.

"Please media hold him to account." I hate to tell Kinzinger this, but our news media has finally just imploded. He's going to be waiting a long, long time before any mainstream media hold Van Drew or any other Trumper to account on pretty much anything in this second term.

There are no algorithms, but it is most definitely social media. Just like Reddit.

I agree, but the way to explain people saying that they gave up social media in a post on a message board is this understanding.

I guess we can say there are levels of social media, or something like that.

Right. No one is referring to anonymous online message boards when colloquially using the term social media. Forums like this probably fall under a subcategory of social media, but I think we can all agree that there are fundamental differences between zzlpolitics.com and mainstream social media platforms like TikTok, Snapchat, Instagram, etc.
