I would love to see a Netflix series of Lib going offshore to search for Yatlantis on the Gulf floor.

Was waiting for someone to post this one

"How is it possible in the 19th Century that over the course of 70 years they were able to bring a bunch of bricks to an Island that isn't very far offshore."

Was one of the funnier Liberator troll threads

I first heard about the bricks thing right after I went to St Lucia for my honeymoon.





Fort Rodney was built on a mountain on the edge of a Caribbean Island in the late 1800s/early 1900s

I guess that was part of the conspiracy, too

Yes he did a long arse thread on Star Forts, insinuating they were alien portals.

He argued that they couldn't be built by man because in the 19th century we just could not have transported the millions of bricks required to build this for (I think it was the one in the Tortugas as I recall). It took like 70 years to fully build the fort.

He also "believes" that the Earth is flat, that there is a dome over the Earth that prevents us from going to Deep Space, which doesn't actually exist, or something.

He's a troll, and a pretty good one imo.

Out of Africa is clearly wrong.

It never made sense.


Why?

This discovery says virtually nothing about the OOA theory for homo sapiens. This says that it was possible that certain hominid ancestors many millions of years before the homo genus was established may have lived in places other than Africa. That has been 1) postulated by a number of people, 2) isn't controversial at all that it could have been the case, and 3) completely consistent with the Out of Africa theory.

The genetic diversity within Africa all on its own means that OOA is overwhelmingly likely to have been the case for our species. There were likely early, tiny waves of migration into other parts of the world 100 - 200K years ago, especially Europe and the Near East, that died out, because the climate conditions were too harsh in much of the rest of the navigable (from Africa) world, but OOA would still have been the case.

No im familiar with a lot of things he’s said he believes in, the whole boats couldn’t carry bricks thing is new to me though. Wow. Try at sup there with blimps being better modes of transportation because of free energy.

Just each episode is him testing his theories and getting debunked.

Send him into space so he can see its not flat (He would say the windows are actually TVs and what he saw wasn't real). Also that there is no dome.

Put a bunch of bricks on a wooden ship etc

I like it.

Season 2 would be inspired by Thor Heyerdahl having built Kon-tiki out of reeds to prove ancient indigenous peoples could have crossed the Atlantic to South America.



But what we would see in the episodes would be Lib's boat construction "prove" (thus maximally pilling us) that brick sea transport is just not possible - ergo alien construction happened and everything every teacher ever taught you in school is a lie.

Do you believe that the 30+ million species of life on earth evolved from a single cell, starting at roughly 4 billion years ago?

Is this what the theory of evolution currently espouses?
