These certainly have not been shown to be true. People have told stories alleging these are true, but they have for decades failed to substantiate them with evidence. All they've been able to do is tell wild fantasy stories and occasionally get a video or photo released that is laughably bad and does not support the story at all.

Which keeps happening, but the people who believe in alien visitation to Earth never seem to care that the alleged "evidence" keeps falling apart when it's actually released and scrutinized. They just move on to hyping up the next alleged evidence. It's honestly a cult dynamic at play here. Always reference to secret evidence and no epistemic adjustment after repeated cases of what they believed was evidence for their belief turning out to not be evidence for their belief. They never learn from all the past times they got scammed.

I have dispassionately followed this topic for years and I am thoroughly familiar with all sides of the debate.

Nothing can be known for sure, but I'd say directionally we are moving closer to these conclusions over time, especially as more evidence is released.

It is understandable for most people to still be skeptical because this topic is probably one of the most well kept secrets (thanks to psyops, stigma, proximity to other high strangeness phenomenon) in human history.

Want to point out some evidence for this?

Points 2-4 are entirely conjecture, though. If point 1 is even remotely true, then we lack the authority to decisively state that this phenomenon necessitates the existence of new control laws, flight dynamics or physics. We have no captured technology to speak of, you're making assumptions to explain the unknown.

> so we have to ask the question, why bother with SpaceX or even oil drilling

Because everyone with advanced access to this program knows, without a shadow of a doubt, that these UFO videos are a nothingburger and distraction from the DOJ's unreleased Epstein files.
