These people are so used to just making shit up they don’t even know how to properly debunk things anymore. Strange video to be sure, but given the resolution, it can easily be explained away as artifacts creating halos around the objects which makes them look weird when they pass each other.

This has made it to the front page here and Torba shared to everyone on gab as well. We’ve got to stop this fake news shit from spreading, they’ll use it against us. Unfortunately the media could actually debunk this, but as usual they don’t do their jobs.

Yes, the media's "debunking" here takes the form of assuming the truth is obvious (not demonstrating it), and conditioning people to treat anything else as ridiculous. I agree it's possible it is an illusion based on a number of factors coming together deceptively. But not because it's been demonstrated, nor because I believe a "technical glitch" could be responsible, nor because people's honest reaction to suspicious video is only evidence of "rich imagination", etc.
