That information is quite literally classified. As to your safety, as was already pointed out, it was addressed, you are just to scared to read apparently. Probably should work on that duck and cover again. I guess my detractors on here aren't reading social media nightly about this drone thing. There are videos of the drones, which are not airplanes as some government guy said. There are other people appalled by all this, not just greg. Once again my assumption is we have differing views of government, maybe not as I haven't spoken with my detractors on here and don't have an outline of their positions. Personally I'd like to know from government officials if I am in danger. Nothing you guys have linked to me have indicated I am not in danger. Trump actually said "for some reason" they are not telling the public anything so I am not alone on this. Frankly I am outraged as I was with the balloon thing we shot down years ago. And if nukes were headed this way it is sad if we wouldn't be forewarned. If this drone issue is considered silly by many then am I not the only one considered a fool in being concerned. Read X any night.

The issue is trust. You must inherently trust government whereas I do not. If people are filming this stuff in their backyards people deserve to know what is going on. If Trump is willing to tell people what is going on when he takes over, why not this administration.

Oh I don't trust the government at all, but I trust the for profit fear-mongering media even less. But from a common sense standpoint, I would never expect the military to public disclose their Top Secret military base defense protocols for all of enemies to see so that they would know exactly how to attack us. That's just stupid and reactionary.

That's just stupid and reactionary. Fair enuf especially regarding the media. But X is changing everything. The people are the media and they've been posting stuff, albeit yes some of it has to be fake. I hear you about tipping off our enemies. Glad to hear you don't trust the government as well. I was thinking some of my 'haters' on here disagree with me on that. Glad u are skeptical about government. Even the best presidents realize the smaller the government the better. Just my takes.

X is one of the worst out there. It's a total Echo chamber.
December 19, 20241 yr Author X is one of the worst. It's a total echo chamber. I deregister and haven't been back.

There are a ton of 'idiots' on X who say stupid offensive things but no offense meant how is that different from a message board. Of course this one doesn't allow politics talk and X does but you know what I'm saying? People post stuff about a variety of subjects and you can assess whether they are full of bleep or not. What's so bad about that? I'm not a HUGE fan of X but why the comments blasting X when it's just another forum basically like a message board? X has some good videos about the drones.

So you like twitter because you found what you wanted to find, and in the same post asked this question. Well done.

I've read too many of your posts to really believe you don't know what an echo chamber is. I appreciate you keeping a dialogue going but how about just once having your character be the most intelligent one in the thread?

We don't say 'echo chamber' in Kansas and I've been away from Chicago too long to recall the phrase being common when I lived yonder. The world would definitely be a nicer place without X (Twitter) as it is very mean spirited but like I said there are good things on there too when something happens (like the drones). If I had a magic wand, yes I'd wipe Twitter (X) off the map but it's here and I'd rate the information it provides a solid 4.5 out of 10.

Oh I'd keep a lot of dialogues going if we were allowed to talk politics local (Chicago) and national. I am most opinionated.

Yet you choose to wear a naive sock puppet while posting here. I feel like we're missing out. Where do you discuss politics and I'll follow you over there?
