i love ‘melon glands’… feels like great slang for ‘breasts’
That’s the only reason anyone’s in the comment section.
Speak for yourself. I was here for the “Acktyually star forts are pretty modern” comment, which I would’ve posted if that guy hadn’t.
I wonder how many people will get the reference-
I can’t tell if that’s Jeff Goldblum or Rick Moranis, and it’s pickling my brain 🤯
bofa Deezen guesses are good but not quite right.
He’s this little shit
Eddie Deezen actually.
Probably most famous for his minor role in Wargames.
Although nowadays he’s getting better known for being a creep in real life.
I think something snapped in him. He’s had multiple charges against him for multiple incidents and he sounds like he’s seriously mentally ill. The fact that he’s a Scientologist doesn’t help.
Yeah, I loved Eddie Deezen back then, but he probably belongs in some sort of long-term psychiatric care.
mmmm… melon glaaaands
You really need a good melon gland baller to get the best of the gland.
Star fortresses only became common after the invention of cannon artillery. That’s exceedingly modern for this type of nonsense.
These types are obsessed with star fortresses for reasons I can’t begin to comprehend, but they all think they’re ancient.
They do look cool tho
Oh yeah, they’re very cool. But the real story of them is interesting enough, so making up a new story is stupid.
for reasons I can’t begin to comprehend
Maybe 'cause they’re star-shaped?
They feel ancient for those born yesterday…
So they’re finally going for the buildings made by Europeans calling them impossible and made by aliens, we’ve gone full circle now.
Especially since star forts are such a recent development. They are not some mysterious ancient ruins, we literally still have the blueprints from the people planning them.
And the evolution of those blueprints! With commentary!
Oof, evolution. That word alone makes it hard to grasp for these nutjobs.
Ouch, my melon glands!
Star forts existing despite their expensive construction because they are superior to other fort designs in the age of gunpowder due to their overlapping zones of fire and safe zones for defenders? No! Clearly its because we have aquatic ancestors with melon glands and long skulls that bread us into slaves by removing said melon glands! And we hid their skulls there! In some of the most interesting and eye catching structures to see! You know, to not draw attention to them!

/s just in case it wasn’t obvious
I legitimately do not get the logic here.

I’m never not going to post this glorious video from Folding Ideas about Flat Earthers. It’s a tranquil and thoughtful examination of the evidence of Earth’s curvature in act one that is actually very beautifully done. The second act is about how people get pulled into these ways of thinking and how it never has anything to do with a logical position.
People do not have reasonable, rational brains. They have brains designed to explain your feelings. Whenever you feel something, physical or emotional, your brain writes a story to figure out how it happened. Sometimes the stories make sense because we can connect events in a logical way. When emotional states become disordered or compromised the brain can become very lost and it will start pulling together more and more stories to explain a feeling that just won’t go away. This is how people get attached to conspiracy theories and ideas that the universe is not what it seems. This is why otherwise smart people like doctors and nurses can become anti-vaxxers or how some scientists flip to climate change denial or other radical beliefs.
We are not a rational or logical species, we are a species that tell stories because we are overflowing with feelings.
To be fair, the page is called Unbelievable History. It truly is unbelievable.
They’re absolutely right. I don’t believe this.
why would this be covered up if it was true
It’s always a coverup with these people.
I mean it literally has to be, the whole point of uncovering some conspiracy is to find evidence that the world is not what it seems, this allows one to embrace the stories their brains write to explain why they’re constantly anxious, depressed, hopeless or scared. Conspiracism is a response to emotional states, and in fact most of our beliefs and experience of the world is guided by our emotional states, it’s just that most of the time we can connect together narratives that we can all agree on. Sometimes people split off and decide to start agreeing on new things because they think some hidden truth is the real reason why they’re miserable.
There was some culture about elongating children’ heads in south America. What was it again?
This guy wants a word with you.
These people come from France though.
what are the skulls actually from then?? like not saying the theory is true, but are these actual human skulls?? what time period?
