Were the pyramids built by aliens from another civilization

If I get a chance to go see them one day it would be one more thing off my bucket list.

You should be careful whats on your bucket list.

And do i care who built the fucking pyramids,let's try prevent climate change from causing us all to die.

Are you serious?

That has been debunked over and over. Just most people have not caught up on the truth, BECAUSE there is NO money to be made in the TRUTH of climate change.
This is a pyramids thread not a climate change threat. You want to talk climate change start your own thread.

AND maybe the technology that is the pyramids would do what you are delusionally dreaming about?

Point out something and I will prove my point.
Not here to guess at what you know and do NOT know.

One example for you.
97% scientist did NOT agree that climate change is going to kill anyone.
yet that is what most people that make statements similar to yours believe.

NOT saying that is YOU.

This is what they agree.

The vast majority of climate scientists, approximately 97%, agree that human activities are the primary cause of climate change.
This is YEARs old date and the consensus is changing as new technology and studies come out.

The claim that 97% of scientists agree on climate change often refers to a 2013 study by Cook et al., which analyzed thousands of peer-reviewed papers and found 97% of those expressing a position on human-caused global warming endorsed the consensus that human activities are driving climate change. This figure is widely cited to show strong scientific agreement on anthropogenic climate change, though critics argue it oversimplifies debates about the extent, impacts, or solutions. The consensus focuses on the core idea that human activities, particularly CO2 emissions, significantly contribute to global warming.

The 97% consensus on human-caused climate change has been exaggerated in some narratives to imply imminent, catastrophic doom, overstating the certainty or severity of specific outcomes like mass extinction or apocalyptic scenarios. This can mislead by conflating broad agreement on warming with uniform predictions of extreme, immediate consequences, ignoring nuances in climate impacts and adaptation possibilities

Yes, some individuals and entities have profited from exaggerated climate change claims, including through investments in green energy, carbon credits, and advocacy, though the extent and motives vary widely.

Critics like Tol (2014) argue Cook’s study used an unrepresentative sample, including irrelevant papers, and applied inconsistent definitions, inflating the 97% consensus figure. Legates et al. (2013) couldn’t replicate parts of the study, highlighting methodological flaws. These critiques suggest the consensus may be overstated.

The Climate Hose Analogy

Description: Imagine Earth’s climate as a pool filling with water from a thousand hoses. Each hose—solar activity, methane leaks, volcanoes, energy heat—adds water at different rates and strengths. Some hoses we barely understand, like undersea volcanoes or solar cycles, because our data is spotty, especially before the last 50 years. Others, like methane from oil wells, we could control but often ignore.

Explanation: The pool’s rising water represents climate change—warming, storms, or shifts we don’t fully predict. Old data (pre-1970) is localized, like measuring only one corner of the pool, with errors up to 0.5°C. Even today, countries like China and Russia hide or fudge data, muddying the picture. To keep the pool from overflowing, we must study every hose’s flow, not just the loudest one. Ignoring hoses or assuming perfect measurements risks misjudging the pool. Instead, we should control what we can (e.g., methane leaks) and adapt to the rising water while learning more about each hose’s role.

Flashback to my college days, I recall some theory that the oceans and sees were absorbing a lot of the gases and pollution, is that still a valid argument.

yes, but we are also learning that a lot of gases are coming from the ocean. We do not have the technology to accurately monitor.

How did humans even live 4500 years ago with no electricity internet or super markets

I think they did have their version of super markets. And life was difficult because they had to wake up and WORK to survive every day.
Vacation was not even a word.

Some people think some had electricity.

It was discovered in present-day Khujut Rabu, Iraq in 1936, close to the ancient city of Ctesiphon, the capital of the Parthian (150 BC – 223 AD) and Sasanian

The author known for suggesting the existence of advanced civilizations before the ice age is Graham Hancock. Great documentary from Graham Hancock is minimally very entertaining.

LOL!
We know that governments, dictators, kings, rulers always have had their propaganda.
With the invention of the Gutenberg press, fake news became popular.
The 1938 "War of the Worlds" radio broadcast is a significant example of how radio, like the Gutenberg press, could directly influence and affect people. This event highlighted the power of radio to create mass panic and underscore the importance of critical thinking when consuming media.

TV did the same thing and now the Internet is doing it.

Without comprehensive data, especially on non-binary inclusion, definitive answers are tough. On standards, concerns about lowering them for diversity exist; some point to adjusted physical requirements (e.g., Army’s 2015 gender-neutral fitness test revisions) as evidence.
"Official policy" across branches insists standards remain role-based, not diversity-driven.

If you’re aware of specific examples of lowered standards, please share.
You know I can go find them, but I would like someone to assist making the point that lowered standards are causing issues.

In 2015, a class-action lawsuit led by Andrew Brigida was filed against the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), which oversees air traffic controller hiring in the U.S. The lawsuit alleges that a new hiring process introduced in 2014, including a biographical questionnaire, unfairly excluded highly qualified candidates—some of whom were white men—in favor of increasing diversity.


Before 2014, the FAA prioritized graduates of the Collegiate Training Initiative (CTI) program and military veterans. The shift to the new system sparked criticism that it overlooked merit, with plaintiffs claiming they were passed over despite top qualifications.

There has been a documented shortage of air traffic controllers in recent years, with the FAA actively trying to hire more staff, suggesting jobs were indeed available.

The FAA insists its hiring process, including the questionnaire, assesses aptitude and potential, not race or gender, and denies any discriminatory intent.
The lawsuit remains unresolved, with no final ruling confirming the allegations.

When you draw a connection between the Andrew Brigida lawsuit and potential issues in firefighter, police, and military hiring practices. In the Brigida case, the FAA’s diversity-focused hiring overhaul allegedly sidelined qualified candidates—often white men—using a biographical questionnaire, despite a shortage of air traffic controllers. This raises concerns about merit being compromised for diversity goals, a debate echoed in discussions about lowered standards in other fields like policing, firefighting, and the military. Even if officials deny it and data isn’t readily available, that doesn’t mean problems don’t exist—it could just mean they’re untracked.

Take the new Tennessee law as an example. It requires police to record DUI arrests where no intoxication or drugs are found, revealing 609 such cases from 2017-2023 after sober drivers faced wrongful arrests. Before tracking, the issue was dismissed due to a lack of data, yet it clearly existed. This shows how tracking is a critical first step to uncovering hidden problems, like false arrests—or, potentially, unfair hiring practices. Without data, issues can persist unnoticed, but starting to measure them, as Tennessee did, is how you begin to address them.
Skepticism about official denials holds weight:
Absence of evidence isn’t evidence of absence.
