Holy shit, your post just made me realize something. Space isnt fake and you're a moron for sugggesting that, but you do have a point regarding timing on news events. Its a fact that we have precious metal containing asteroids in space, but the timing of this news release during a period of economic uncertainty is definitely more than convenient, considering that this asteroid's existence has been known for a fair amount of time. The takeaway is that real, verifiable news can be released at inopportune times with the intent of distracting or misleading the public. People who might be playing a different game (scientific discovery) would challenge your claim of fake news or psyop because they are operating on a different field of thought (R/D and cosmology vs short term economics), thus allowing someone knowledgeable in the field of cosmology to play the role of useful idiot in the field of short term economics. This maximizes the FUD because the FUD is verifiably right, people who dont believe the FUD look crazy, and the FUD itself is hard for the logical thinker to immediately challenge. However, the problem is if you believe the FUD now, you end up dropping valuable short term assets that would have better prepared you for the future.

Makes me wonder how many times this has happened with real news before.
