If anything social media has shown us over the last decade or so that there are almost no limits to what some people will go to for attention and a few minutes of fame.
I don't even know if I believe our tiny and fairly young planet in a massive universe is being explored by alien life. I mean it could be possible but it would take a very, very advanced life form to do so. I certainly believe given the expanse of the universe that there are planets outside our solar system that have life and most probably intelligent life as we define it.
That said, I'm not ruling out alien abduction or alien visits. I'm just not sold on the fact that they are doing so and also actively trying to communicate with us. Much less taking humans for samples, communicating with them in some way, and then sending them back with a story to tell all the other humans about the aliens that took them if said aliens are trying to keep things a secret.
It doesn't make a lot of sense from an alien view.
Whatever it takes it's a ***** long travel, an expedition, something that matters and I highly doubt you travel through space to arm any Kansas fellow to try to understand why he packs toilet paper during a pandemic ...
You can only be bothered by your own thoughts. You can only be p*ssed about your own life.
