Yes, you just described the plot of Arrival (2016) which very likely was at least in part a reveal of the globalist "fake alien invasion" a.k.a. Project Bluebeam that appears to go all the way back to the October 30, 1938 War of the Worlds radio broadcast. https://greatawakening.win/p/16b5qGekxl/anon-theatre-arrival-movie-2016-/c/

This 1938 event appears to be the first test of the (American?) public, and the date of its broadcast is the most obvious evidence it was done intentionally by satan-worshipping globalist demons. The theory is that they thought they might need to use it to "unite the world" in order to get the UN across the finish line after WW2 because their first attempt got knocked down (League of Nations) after WW1. (Yes, pretty clear to me that WW2 was pre-planned to start in Sept. 1939 as early as 1933, possibly as early as 1889).

I don't recall if this was a worldwide broadcast or just limited to the states. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_War_of_the_Worlds_(1938_radio_drama)

Timing is important, imo. If it looks like it is timed to distract us from something else, then it is definitely "fake and gay". Any huge production pushed by the MSM most likely also "fake and gay". These are some important indicators.

If I was part of a real alien race, and I wanted to contact and not destroy humans, I would definitely approach it very quietly out of the public view. And if I was trying to help humans against demons, criminals, or other non-humans, I certainly would not want the enemy to know that either. So "public aliens" for fear mongering OR "disclosure" seems "fake and gay" to me.
