What is your dark figure/shadow person story? (lemmy.world)

I was talking to my girlfriend about how some people have a shadow person/dark figure and was wondering if Lemmiters would like to share their story so she, and others, get to know about them.

I guess potential trigger warnings.

Also, not sure if it's ok to ask about shadow persons.. leave it to the mods to mod

It's getting a bit late to associate UFOs with idiots, honestly. Both the government and NASA have frontally admitted that there are things flying around that we can't identify. The US just shot down 3 unidentified objects with F22's a few months ago (and no, they were not balloons like the one everyone saw pictures of - no pictures were release of these other objects). Congress is moving forwards with new legislation to force disclosure of secret special access programs related to UFOs, after Grusch's claims, and there will be public hearings soon.

I know the subject has been ridiculed for decades, but no one in congress who has clearance and has been briefed is laughing about it now.

I was going to comment about this too, glad that you decided to instead. Incredible things are happening with disclosure. The fact that Chuck Schumer's bill includes language on definition of non-human intelligence is insane in and of itself. Insane as in, I never thought this would happen ever. Stuff I thought I'd only see in Sci Fi.

The thing is we both are going to get downvoted into oblivion. People who are not aware of the latest developments still see the term UFOs and think "loonies". I am actually a bit scared that disclosure is finally upon us, and many people will have a hard time updating their worldviews.
