Finished the second episode yesterday..

It makes perfect sense that the pyramid is a battery..

Building a Tomb like that,  yea it's cool and all, but you have to consider the Pharoah would need to be the World's Most Mega Bastard Idiot child to want something like that.


And even if he wanted one,  Devoting so much resources to a useless ornament would cause significant civil strife ending in civil war..


So it must be a power plant of sorts..


Why isn't Jeff Bezos starting a foundation to turn the damn thing back on..

I'd sign up for Amazon Prime for the rest of my life , just to watch that.. !!

Mock if you will about the parts that start with "Ancient Alien theorists believe..."

There are quite a few niche facts and tidbits sprinkled before the narrator points out what "Ancient Alien theorists believe.."

Nazca Lines? That's a niche history tidbit that would have taken a few National Geographic specials to find out about.

I think that our ancestral Gods/Dictators were Space Travelers,  (Immigrants)  is the most likely..


They brought some key technology and such to get everything goin',   but then someone started fkn' around with drugs or something, or some dude did some other dude's wife, caused Internal civil war among the ruling elite..   



It would also partly explain the current state of the world,  How major corporations seem to willingly let people die by the millions..


The true masters behind those major governance/economic systems must not care very much or empathize with Human suffering, because hell, we're all just monkeys to them.

Haven't watched Ancient Aliens but I've watched Traveling the Stars: Action Bronson and Friends Watch 'Ancient Aliens' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traveling_the_Stars:_Action_Bronson_and_Friends_Watch_%E2%80%98Ancient_Aliens%E2%80%99).

Ok,  Nazca Lines

[attachimg=1]

[attachimg=2]

These are Clearly Space Based Beam-Weapon test marks.

If you look at the lines,  it's clearly testing for precision cornering and return precision.


The artwork is also Exactly like doodles by Non-artistically trained engineers.

What they really wanted to do was Test straight lines..

But They did that,  on the large (Track Area),  and the Chief of project was like, Dude, everyone is gonna know we got a Beam weapon..


So, Josh from accounting was like, I can draw some birds and stuff..

And Oscar was like,  Chk out this monkey I drew..  and everyone at the office just drew something..

converted to DWG,   and hit upload..



I Highly doubt these were done by aliens..  Why would they be this crude..

Well, crop circles are carried out by a somewhat secretive network of artists, farmers, and such. They get a pilot to do a fly-over of the area to get photos for mapping it out, mark the spots, then are able to do an entire field in just one night. I suppose nowadays they use GPS to make it even easier, you don't need folks planting little stakes in the ground beforehand.

As for the Nazca lines, that is literally just trenches dug out of the iron oxide rock making up the desert's floor around there. They are basically all but confirmed to be religious sites used for sacrifices and offerings, as various alters shells bones and pots are found all around there. I'd be willing to bet they were created with a crude form of a camera obscura using the reflection to plan out the shapes.

I literally know nothing about crop circles except what I vaguely remember from early 90's Unsolved Mysteries episodes. Wasn't the true barometer of them being real always whether the corn stalks were bent not broken? Hows that work then?

edit: googled it apparently if you do them early in the morning there's a lot of moisture in the ground and the stalks tend to bend not break.

Crop circles are most definitely Human-artistry.

The choice of medium..
The regularity of simple shapes, 
The Lack of Non-Linearity..

--- All very human.

An Advanced Race's ART , if they even bother with such things, would certainly surpass our notion of aesthetics.

Hrrrrrrmmmm..

Speculation is different from knowing.


Knowing aliens exist would probably supplant the authority OF the government.


Instead of working towards that mortgage payment..  People would probably quit bothering wtih all that and DEMAND m0ar alien stuff..


That would more or less end the capitalist system of exploitation as they can not simply PROVIDE a service of M0ar aliens..


With that, all industry would immediately ONLY serve space exploration, and Modern money slavery would end..



That's probably what the rothchild types fear most..

Mmmm Imagine if there were some magical switch to press that invalidated all the consolidated power of the most powerful and wealthy people on Earth.

I can think of only one thing that could, and it ends rather poorly for everyone else as well.

Wrote an essay on how Veganism is the end of Capitalism in America..

Decided not to post it because it's too uplifting.

Much Prefer the exploitative military industrial nation where the masses are lied to, drugged, and debt enslaved.

Are you kidding? The entire Organic movement is heavily scammable and unregulated. In the US you can just slap an Organic label on almost anything not processed, it's virtually meaningless these days due to unregulation. The entire health food movement, veganism included, is a HUGELY manipulable market that advertisers and companies take great advantage of. A fringe movement that went mainstream, of course companies are going to try and milk that for all it's worth. Heck, just last year alone acquisition of vegan companies quadrupled since the previous year.

OK,, pyramid.

Even if it is an electro chemical power plant..

It doesn't seem likely that Aliens were involved in that.


There are other ways to build a generator much more easily than an entire pyramid..

The Labor and time involved,  one could widdle a crude steam engine with a knife.


I think the pyramid _as a powerplant_  is very much a product of advanced engineering of a long lost civilization.



Now, as to HOW they died out,  heck,,   this could very well be aliens..

So Gods directing mankind to do --- Something ---...

Regardless of the interpretation, (benevolent or malcious)

Given advanced technology, 

They certainly don't need us for Labor, physical or mental;
They don't need us for our material output.


The only purpose for their interference in the affairs of Man would be in THEIR form of entertainment.


We have Civilizations and Sims, the video game.. 

They have,  Earth, the monkey world..


How far, will they play us,  before pressing the reset button ??

It's clearly evident that they've (RESET) before..

They could edict whatever the hell they want..

Non interference..

Why ??

What difference is a comet which ends all life, from a visit from _alien gods_ which accelerates technology..


It doesn't make sense that a being capable of space travel would be INCAPABLE of properly teaching a lesser race of how to think and advance forward as they did..

If I met an alien, assuming I was alone at the time (since I usually am) I'd assume I was hallucinating. They probably have some sort of tech that disrupts thought process or optics, either that or their form would be incomprehensible. But first thing I'd do is try to touch it. Then ask if I could come with it when they leave, because I'd rather be an observed oddity of study in an alien environment than spend the rest of my time on Earth, quite frankly. I wouldn't think twice about leaving everything behind.

Ok, Mohenjo-daro

Definitely Not nuclear..

Nuclear leaves a trace..

If it were some sort of alien weapon.. It's most likely some sort of laser or microwave beam weapon..

Nuclear is extremely resource intensive to refine,   and I don't see why they would spend that kind of money just to wipe out some crummy monkey city of bricks and mortar.

Laser and microwave is better/ more efficient, and you can still use the land after if necessary..

If the Earth was seeded by  Child-Aliens,   then our propogation is most likely a game of civilizations to them.

== Entertainment

If the Earth was seeded by  Adult-Aliens,   then our propogation is most likely a historical experiment of sorts for them.

== Historical simulation.

------ The reason for this being the case, Assuming time-travel is not possible,  Every species would be Blind to their own history..  Logically the next best thing is a live simulation of evolution..

------ This is very reasonable for an Advanced Alien species, because they have probably overcome general senescence (Mortality)..   So they can afford to watch something indefinitely for periods far longer than the lifespan of a single human.
