Re the aerial footage used in the vid:

I have been looking at these drone shots of after the fire since they first emerged. Closely. Three observations — and I invite people to look the shots over, slow speed, frame by frame, using zoom. Compare with other post-fire color aerial vids and please honestly assess. I’d like anyone’s honest input.

My observations:

1) The footage appears to be in grey-scale, or in a lowered saturation level — unlike the subtly varied soft grey tones we see in some other “after” color aerial vids & pics and in nature.

2. The grey-scale is interrupted in spots by what does appear to be enhanced, tinted objects and areas. Note bleeding color(!), identical hues on different and disparate objects (as with a limited pallet) —Look at all colors closely.

Note this and “oversprays” — the first roofs, the yellow grassy area, trees, the featured blue car, and too much flatness of color, as on the last umbrella. Keep an open mind. If this is tampered footage, surely you would want to know.

3) Editing appears to obliquely feature blue or blue-green objects. Other incidental colors, often-muted reds & greens (and there’s the yellow swath), may vary slightly in intensity, from object to object, but we see a very limited pallet. The multiple hues here & there helps lend realism; a red hue helps set off a blue-green object.

All told, it looks like a hacked bit of hand tinting on grey-scale.

There seems to be a good deal of effort made to seed and confirm certain narratives, to lead people to certain conclusions. That is, to influence the very same people who understood the truths surrounding the whole covid/vac consp & psyop and we are now predisposed to look behind the surface of stories for the REAL story. My question becomes, then, what would be the point of misleading these, us, the skeptics? The point of using this skepticism against them? Could that skepticism have come so far that it’s susceptible to being played — become a weak spot to exploit? A susceptibility for anything that smells like “conspiracy”.

Or would it be a Maui local’s home-grown effort to sow anger and action at home? I really don’t know what to think — only that the notions started very soon after and that it was subtly seeded. These subliminally suggestive clips spread over the world. Form a basis for theories that quickly morphed into accepted fact.

If I’m mistaken about thinking these clips (like others) are photoshopped, please weigh in, but do look with impartial eyes. The near-monochromatic nature of the natural scene does make a greyscale version slide in easily under the radar. If you have knowledge of how this bleeding of colors happens commonly in un-doctored drone or other videos or if you notice it looks shopped too, and if you think it is indeed a “thing”, please comment. If it is altered, it’s dishonest and purposefully misleading — We would then need to ask Why.

Thanks.
