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.
i love ‘melon glands’… feels like great slang for ‘breasts’
I can’t tell if that’s Jeff Goldblum or Rick Moranis, and it’s pickling my brain 🤯
Eddie Deezen actually.
Probably most famous for his minor role in Wargames.
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.
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!

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.
The only thing that I can think that they are possibly talking about is this…

Which, I guess, means we used to be sperm whales?
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.
To be fair, the page is called Unbelievable History. It truly is unbelievable.
