    Pretty sure they've had that technology for a long time. I thought we had used DragonFly size drones to scout out places before we infiltrated in the middle east.

    I fucking love ancient alien shit. Hell, any alien shit. And esoteric shit. Any of that shit. Love the crazies. Not cause I believe it but because it’s entertaining to me. I just got a trial subscription to GaiaTV cause YouTube was blowing it up for me in ads and lol this shit makes the ancient aliens show look believable. I’m watching a show right now called Ancient Civilizations and these guys are batshit crazy.

    My favorite thing so far is there is a guy whose listed qualification is just “Researcher.” LOL

    I actually intended to find it and post it right after I posted that but apparently past Bulldops got distracted after posting that and now current Bulldops can’t find it again so I’ll try to break it down

    The video used an analogy of a river for time; it has a beginning and an end, and it flows one direction. So in this analogy, a time traveler would be like a pebble you pick up and throw into the river at a specific point. The pebble isn’t big enough to change the flow of the river and most of the river wouldn’t even be aware of the pebble, only the water that interacted with the pebble as it sank would be aware of the pebble but the flow of time would just go around it as it sank and the flow of the whole river wouldn’t be effected at all

    for example, let’s say you wanted to go back in time and kill baby hitler to prevent WWII. You could kill the baby but you wouldn’t actually prevent WWII by doing it. Time would just flow around that ”pebble” and instead of hitler leading the reich it would just end up being someone else or maybe WWII would be instigated somewhere else entirely. The only people that would realize something had happened were the people that interacted with the ”pebble”.

    So like if someone had went back to kill baby hitler, you might get confused about how you remember learning about hitler and WWII in HS but now when you look at your old HS textbook you see the leader of the 3rd reich was Adolf Hester. The people that were in class with you would be like “yeah you’re right, WTF?”, and the people who skipped that class would be like “what do you mean? It’s always been Hester”

    Yes, the Mandela effect is because a time traveler can change something in the past that alters the present but they can’t change the memory you already had of that past.

    they can change something that results in the Barenstain Bears books you just found in your closet but they cant change your memory of the Barenstein Bears books you remember having as a kid

    i've never experienced the mandela effect and i don't think that nazi germany was inevitable at all. but this is a much more interesting counterfactual than i'm familiar with re: germany in 1929 or whatever

    I don’t think it was so much like kill baby hitler and there is still a nazi Germany, like it is predestined or something. More like shit is going to happen regardless of what you do. Maybe that shit is a massive world war, maybe that shit is a worldwide pandemic. you can go change a specific event, but some other shit is just going to happen instead.

    Killing hitler as a baby would have been a small change, it would just be a family that lost a baby. That in itself wouldn’t change the geopolitics of Europe in the early to mid 20th century. A massive global conflict would probably still end up happening mid century one way or another even if there wasn’t a hitler

    Not attacking you here, but after your hitler analogy wouldn't a time traveler have to do something related to the barenstain bears books for everyone to have a misrememberance? Or are there just random casualties from time travel?

    They probably went to Ellis island and bumped into a worker, which caused a name error, which changed the name of the crazy uncle that inspired the author. Or something.

    What an incredible story.

    Imagine, in three months, going from believing that wayfair is sex trafficking children to becoming a full on bonafide qanon maga idiot and dying at the insurrection. Trampled by your fellow maga trash.

    And I’m not sure I ever heard of that mom drowning her three kids because she quickly spiraled in qanon conspiracies.

    Facebook should be accomplices in those children's death.
