Unless YouTube is using that data to not recommend crappy videos, then it's completely pointless. If YouTube was going to use that data, then they would, oh, I don't know, maybe still have a dislike button?
The Copycat Theory certainly accounts for a portion of the sightings. Anybody that doesn't think there are a lot of people with drones that would go flying them during this just to mess with their neighbors is a fool.
Mass hysteria also certainly accounts for more of the sightings. You only need 1 out of every 600 people to see an airplane/satellite/bright star and think they're seeing a mysterious object to have over half a million Americans saying they've seen one.
I've personally known several people in my life that would easily fall into this camp. Need I remind anyone about rainbow sprinkler lady?
As for what got this all started or any current sightings (if there are any, anymore) that don't fall into the above categories? 🤷
I highly doubt this is Trump voters suddenly hearing about Project 2025 and deciding to go look it up and realizing it's bad for them.
I would wager that this is predominantly voters that didn't need the gory details of Project 2025 to be convinced to vote against Trump. But now that he's been elected 🤮, preparing for what's to come makes the gory details suddenly relevant.
