This is pettier than the usual dunk tank post, but this sub is like a microcosm of propaganda. These people are convinced there's multiple species of aliens on earth already because some moths have flown across security cameras at night and Vegas lights reflect in the clouds sometimes.

I guess I can bring it back to how America is bad, since this is exactly what the CIA wants.

    The statistic comes from comparing a 2009 Pew Research Center survey on supernatural experiences, which found that 18 percent of Americans claim to have seen a ghost, and a 2015 GLAAD study on transgender visibility that found only 16 percent of Americans say they know someone who identifies as trans.

      Oh, it's from 2009? Maybe it's different now, but that's still wild to me 18% of people have seen ghosts.
