So we have debunkable poor quality video and untrustworthy eyewitness testimony. Extraordinary claims DO require extraordinary evidence, and this doesn't mean that every poor quality cellphone video needs to be "taken seriously".

How about if some actual astronomers and biologists could weigh in? I wonder if people could elaborate on this "70% DNA similarity", because as-is it is a suspiciously well crafted bite-sized talking point that is easy to grasp on the surface, perfect for conspiracy nutters to latch onto and parrot without getting into the actual science.

I'd encourage you to educate yourself on basic logic and the scientific method, instead of gullibly accepting these claims without sufficient evidence.

I swear these technology subs really are anti-technology, it's all old-man-yells-at-cloud whining and complaining. What a joke.

It's weird seeing otherwise normal working class people rush to defend admins, moderators, governments and authorities all the time in situations like this. I'm imagining some college kids working at starbucks or grocery stores picking up their phone in between customers posting replies championing copyright law. It's embarrassing
