The Romans did not build the massive stones in Lebanon because their meticulous records do not mention them.

Now, the thing about the Romans is, Romans had meticulous record keeping. And they talked about all the construction of all the different things they had. They don't even mention those stones. So, what's that? They don't mention how they mean. No, I don't think it was them. I think it was a previous civilization.

Plato said Atlantis was a real place with free energy sources and flying ships.

Well, 2000, 200 plus years ago, the father of philosophy, Plato, said that Atlantis was a real place. He even said where Troy was. They thought he was wrong. They found it a decade ago. He said it existed out in the Atlantic Ocean. They had some free energy source, flying ships, automaton robots, and that the power source blew up and darkened the skies for many years and caused a mini ice age.

The Romans never mentioned the Trilithon stones despite bragging about other achievements.

But then the Romans liked to brag about all the things they did. And third century Romans bragged about the Lateran obelisk that's now sitting in Rome. And the Lateran Obelisk is about 350 to 400 tons. That's the heaviest recorded lift in Roman history. These are 800 to 1,000 tons. They never even mentioned them.

A cataclysm or social collapse caused the abandonment of construction at Ollantaytambo.

And in fact, that's a whole other interesting story because that place is another example of what you see a lot of in Egypt, which is this phenomenon of just something happened and they went tools down. We're not finished. We're in the process of doing stuff and just drop work, leave. Whatever happens, cataclysm, social club, something happened.

Ancient civilizations may have possessed advanced technology and lived for thousands of years before a cataclysmic flood.

I clicked on it and it was all about the Sumerian kings list. And the Sumerian, they found a tablet, a cuneiform tablet, that it shows this list of kings and how long they reigned. And then there's the Great Flood. And some of these kings reigned for like 40,000 years, 30,000 years. And then the total timeline of all of them, I think, is like 200 plus thousand years. And then there's the Great Flood. And then after the Great Flood, there's a very small lifespan. There's like 50 years. They run for 40 years. But all of the post-flood kings are correct. They're all like historically, they resonate with other historical texts, other cuneiform tablets, other different depictions of when this king ran, you know, Mesopotamia and this king ran Sumer. But their old versions are these like really weird, like pre-flood is real weird. It's like, what are you talking about, 40,000 years? Like, what do you, what does that mean? Are you just making it up? Is it just a myth? Was there a different thing here then? Like, are you just assuming that this lifespan that human beings have of 120 years is normal? Like, is this what we always had? Or are what we are today a very bizarre version of what used to exist? Are we like a fucking chihuahua and we used to be a wolf? Were we something very different at one point in time? And are we the remnants of whatever survived whatever cataclysmic disaster that every ancient civilization depicts as a great flood?

A comet storm during the Younger Dryas period likely destroyed an advanced ancient civilization.

Like what he's saying is we pass through a comet storm. It happens this particular time every year. And there's been times in history where we've been hit. And it's very likely that this time period, this Younger Dryas impact time period, that could have been the end of whatever civilization existed at the time.

Ancient Egyptians discovered sound chambers and used harmonics and vibrations.

And it's one of those where it's like harmonics and vibrations and frequencies, you know, and understanding like, man, we know so little, but realistically, all this stuff through like all the different stuff they discovered in Egypt with the sound chambers and all the different things. I mean, it's a whole different thing where we just ignored.

Joe Rogan subscribes to the perspective that an incredibly sophisticated society existed in Africa/Egypt approximately 11,000 years ago before being wiped out.

Look at like ancient Egypt. Look at how insanely sophisticated they were. And if you subscribe to the Graham Hancock and Randall Carlson's perspective, which I do, which is that at one point in time, there was an incredibly sophisticated society, probably more sophisticated than we are, that lived in Africa, in Egypt, and that those people were probably in a different... Different direction, but far more advanced than we are today. And then they were wiped out. And then go after that.

In ancient Greek city-states, the establishment used voting to execute philosophers by throwing them off cliffs or forcing them to drink hemlock.

The problem with pure democracy is in Greece they had pure democracy in some of the city-states and they would have one bucket of black rocks and one bucket of white rocks and then the establishment higher class order was allowed to vote. You could be voting to their club. That was the first democracy. It was more like an oligarchy. And they would call them up and they would say, yeah, we think this philosopher has been rude to us. We're going to have a vote on throwing him off the cliff. Or sometimes we're going to make him drink Hemlock. These are real cases. And then they would vote. They'd say, yep, there are ten more black rocks than there are white rocks, so we do not vote to kill you. Oh, there are seven more white rocks than there are black rocks. Those are a yes vote. We're going to throw you off the cliff. Guards, march him up to that 1,000-foot parapet and throw him off.

A large percentage of philosophers and thinkers in ancient Greece were killed by the state for questioning authority.

Most of the philosophers that got killed, a large percentage of them did get killed, the thinkers. A large percentage? And they would either have you drink hemlock or throw you off of a cliff. And they would vote on that. And that's pure democracy.

The first two seedings of life on Earth failed because indigenous populations were no match for predatory races.

The first two seedings of life here on this life platform Failed because of wars, because the indigenous populations being peaceable and law-abiding and intelligent and having 12 strands of DNA and yada yada, they were no match for the predatory races that came here to get what they wanted.
