I have been writing a story based on the idea that a war with aliens has been faked, leading to global tyranny in order to fight the aliens. Of course the alien threat is never neutralized, just a lot of humans dying in an attack here and there. Blamed on these “aliens”.
Might be a good idea for an indy film....
Psst.......greenhouse gasses and global warming are a direct result of the government’s secret war with the aliens from the planet Zucaca........pass it on.
