Step 3: Reports spread like wildfire, missightings with planes occur, drone prankster copycats move in.
Step 4: The Pentagon, rolling its eyes but under obligation to take it seriously, promises to investigate.

Step 6: Mass hysteria unfolds. Braindead career politicians mistake stars for UAPs. Engagement bait accounts knowingly crank out the fraud for exposure.
Next thing you know everyone forgets how it even started.
Just one big recreation of Orson Welles’ 1938 War of the Worlds radio broadcast.
