@TipsyTentacle The intergalactic conspiracy is wholesome viewing for the entire family but pussy um no.

@TipsyTentacle what the fuck

@TipsyTentacle what dont they want us to know

@jk SHOW US THE TRUTH

@jk @TipsyTentacle they dont' want us to see its area 51

@jk @TipsyTentacle My tombstone will read RIP: Never Got To See The Alien Pussy

person: why would someone invest so much money, time, and effort to make a fake? This clearly is not a fake.
moi: *screaming*

am i being too harsh on conspiracy theorists... hm...

@TipsyTentacle no such thing

@TipsyTentacle #harshon

show: These are unlikely to hoaxes and experts believe they're either secret aircraft or... ALIEN SPACECRAFT
me: *screaming*

show: this UFO researcher managed to capture another video of another UFO!!!
me: *screaming*

@TipsyTentacle The UFOs only show up when he goes out alone, proving he is their chosen lone messenger to humanity,

show: the Star Wars Project by the USA government is used to fire at alien spacecrafts that get too close to Earth.
me: *screaming*

Show: The Majestic 12 killed JFK. Also, they're the shadow government controlling America.
Me: *screaming *

@TipsyTentacle are there any theories about competition between the shadowy organizations controlling the various world governments or what

@gravezwave interesting premise, but they don't seem to go into that. (there's a board game with this concept... I think it was called Illuminati or something?)

@gravezwave i decided to skip a few episodes and click on their episode about Soviet UFO "Incidents"

@TipsyTentacle tbh the actual state of the Soviet space program and what happened to some of their cosmonauts is way more disturbing than any alien stuff people might come up with

@gravezwave Oh? I don't know much about their space programme, tbh.

@TipsyTentacle it's difficult to get confirmation on some of the things due to the nature of the USSR but they were generally underfunded and working with outdated/unsafe equipment. several of their test pilots and such died and I believe due to the classified circumstances it took a long time for families to get closure or compensation, if they got any.

@gravezwave eh... just the usual "ufo over military bases" and "secret soviet research bases" and... no mention of secret soviet shadow government. ):

show: most of all russian ufo incidents evidence were destroyed or lost.
moi: sure, jan

OH BOY IT'S THE ANCIENT ALIENS EPISODE
show: the ancient civilizations in egypt and sumeria arose from nowhere to build massive pyramids and temples, and epic achievements even with our technology. Was it human ingenuity or did they receive help from powers beyond earth?
moi: sounds racist but okay

show: Mesopotamia may be called the cradle of civilization... BUT IT WASN'T FOUNDED BY HUMANS. Ancient cravings show winged beings, flame chariots, and flying discs.
me: k

ohmyfuckinggosh
show: they developed agriculture and writing and architecture. but did they achieve this on their own?
me: *SCREAMING*

show: aliens came to earth to harvest gold. also they're from a hidden planet in our solar system!!
me: *screaming and crying invisible gold tears*

@TipsyTentacle Is this true, @Thaminga ?

@Storyteller @TipsyTentacle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_V_2BFWahc

really annoyed at this constant assertion that humans couldn't have good astronomy skills or geometric skills or construction skills...

@TipsyTentacle racist aliens in your area looking for theories

show: the pyramids were a giant soundwave generator or a power plant. Or even a magnetic shield generator to protect Earth.
me: *screaming*

show: maybe humans weren't the first alien experiment at intelligent life. because the Sphinx is possibly built before the pyramids!!
me: what the fuck humanity is hella old. the sphinx being extra old doesn't mean there was another... URGH

show: it was... the ATLANTIS PEOPLE WHO BUILT THE SPHINX
me: *SCREAMING UNDERWATER*

@TipsyTentacle As if we need to ascribe MORE strengths to the fictional Atlanteans. I mean, jeez, Nazi ideology was all about their damn supposed racial superiority from being descendants of Atlantis.

@TipsyTentacle Anyways, the Greeks kicked their ass. So much for superiority.

@Storyteller Atlantis is such a weird thing to claim descent from. :/

@TipsyTentacle Not only that, it's based on this weird idea that "Aryan" was making reference to Atlantis, and not actual peoples we know and measure today that were also PoC! Partly from the Theosophical movement founded by Helena Blavatsky and Henry Olcott.

Though even Blavatsky described them as "varying from dark brown, almost black, red-brown-yellow, down the whitest creamy color, yet of one and the same stock"

@TipsyTentacle I mean, fuck, they couldn't get their own pseudo-science right.

@TipsyTentacle are the pyramids so boring that we have to have a million different uses for them? Like they are fucking marvels of human engineering and people are like "they must be some sort of ancient tech!!!!"

@TipsyTentacle wait, that's literally the plot of "Battlefield: Earth" isn't it

@TipsyTentacle This is what I find the most reprehensible part of these conspiracy theories -- denigrating ancient cultures and human accomplishment. There's little question we created supersonic aircraft, but the idea of planting things, inscribing messages on things, and erecting things is so hard for them to grasp?

@TipsyTentacle Granted, there's some VERY GOOD questions about *how* they accomplished much of it -- for instance, how they transported all that material in Egypt. Even recreating the techniques today using water and human labor didn't pan out in the documentary I saw.

Is it a mystery? Nah, I think they were onto the methods; rammed earth slopes to the pyramids and lubricated paths with strong labor.

@TipsyTentacle It's not hard. It's just labor intensive and requires the will to create it.

@TipsyTentacle CONSPIRACY PRUDES

@rotatingskull you believe the autopsy video is real?

@TipsyTentacle No but I believe that experts believe the autopsy video is real. Experts believe all kinds of stuff.

@rotatingskull oh okay, got it. (:

@TipsyTentacle I remember some of the experts they interviewed were special effects movie people who said it was too good to be simulated. I believe that this is their genuine opinion.

Also Jane Goodall believes Bigfoot is real.

@TipsyTentacle I think there is a healthy middle ground between Expertise Is Valuable And Sometimes Absolutely Necessary and Experts Know Everything.

@TipsyTentacle Also there is a fine line around what one is an expert in. An expert in making special effects is not necessarily an expert in detecting what is a special effect and what is not.
