There’ve been multiple such throughout history. Some evolved here but most were refugees from elsewhere.

Cataclysms have rewritten the surface geography many times, and combined with erosion and more gradual plate and water changes, the Earth has buried, eroded and eaten most of the evidence.

What little there has been, has been covered up and sequestered away for the same reasons the alien UAP info has been: because the rulers of men are terrified their subjects will see something else besides humans, more advanced, because they fear it will erode their authority and influence.

It’s never been because “we can’t take it, therefore suppressed for ‘our own good’” — that’s just how we’ve been gaslit — it’s always been because our rulers are terrified. We’re an ape species and therefore tribal and hierarchical. A new alpha is a serious destabilizing threat to those who see themselves as the existing alpha.

As a species, our collective mind has grown up with blinders on, shaped, in a test tube, so to speak, of artificial ideas. I hope a big explosion is coming, to blow away all our ignorance and put us in touch with who we are and who everyone else is.

Ah, I mean, probably nothing that would convince you. If you go looking, you can put the picture together if you have the capability for discovery and the mindset to do that.

But I don’t think I could just list some sources where you could go in and sort of in computational fashion go and deduce this conclusion.

And I understand that, so for the most part for many people, this conclusion will remain out of reach, because there are it appears no easy set of sources that could satisfy them that they couldn’t say “well that source could be discredited because of this, or clearly, it was written by this person who we can discredit, or by saying they’re sure it was written at a time where people didn’t understand, or that there was political pressure to write such and such a thing or it was done for entertainment or whatever it is,” I mean there’s always arguments you can make against any source.

And so I understand and I think it’s perfectly fine for those people that These types of ideas will remain out of reach for them for now until such a day as there is some sort of official confirmation from some important authority figures of these ideas and at that point those ideas will then have a wider audience of acceptance, because there is certainly some people that require not discovery, but authoritative confirmation, I suppose.

Yet, if you were the discovering type than what I have said, combined with your innate abilities, surely you already have enough to go put the picture together for yourself to your own satisfaction. If so, my friend, good luck! Bon voyage :)
