Like imagine, one day... you turn on the news and see... "Breaking News: In a joint statement, the United Nations Security Council revealed that there has been an effort to conceal the existence of extraterrestial life that have arrived on our planet more than 50 years ago...". Its the trending top google search result, everyone on the internet is talking about it. How would you react. What would be the reactions of your relatives, friends, neighbors, and everyone else, and what would the front page of Reddit and Lemmy look like?

Wouldn't care, everyone would be over it in a week. And before then, the social media would blow up trying to get in on the monetization of it. Then life will resume. It will probably be a Tuesday. It's always a Tuesday
