CIA Realeases Hundreds of Top Secret UFO Files

Which is better:
To die with ignorance, or to live with intelligence?
Truth doesn't accommodate to personal opinions.
The choice is yours.

Imagine all the nuttery we see on the internet these days, and then consider the few and meager ways that same turgid florp had to be expressed in the 1950s.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

I originally clicked it thinking it would be some pseudo-scientific conspiracy nonesense, however after reading some of these official documents, i'm not so sure what I believe.

Why struggling? The reports are no different from what you see elsewhere online. That you're reading them on the CIA website means jack shit.

The sources aren't necessarily CIA. Some of these reports seem to have been provided to them from other sources.

Edit: sorry but I just realized they were released in '78, the x files page is just a remembrance type thing, my mistake.

The CIA (and other government agencies)regularly release formerly classified files. Security has a shelf life in our system. Documents are regularly downgraded and ultimately become public access. It's not satisfying for people who think they are currently "involved" in something or on to something because the weakest and shortest lived clearances can still sit at around 50 years on the upper end (a human lifetime, if you will, for practical reasons).
There are classified files as regards how many pairs of socks I was issued in the service, just to bring the mystique of released classified files down to earth. All we ever hear about, with the release of classified files, is aliens and cover-ups and conspiracies....but if they are in there they would be buried under mountains of orders for wool socks and other minutia regularly released.
40 pages of appropriations for brass buttons and a by-line at the bottom that read "also: aliens".
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Turgid florp!? Hahaha
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue
