See, all these people who wonder how the ancient Egyptians built the pyramids don't realize that they were hauling those stones in Cybertrucks!

This kind of apophenia is easily dispelled by looking at the objects in question more closely. Which is impossible to do with single images
Now I see it too! The smiley next to this post has picked something out of his nose and asking himself whereto put it or just eat it.
If you looked up ribbed dildo, you'd find some similar looking stuff to those. So idk what you're seeing.
Yes. Ice cream and styrofoam can also both look like white balls, but I ain't eating the styrofoam or packing fragiles with scoops of vanilla
In the (paraphrased) words of Milo Rossi, conspiracy theories use "looks like" a lot
Milo is a hero of mine.
No? 🤔
This guy is probably close to discovering that the sphinx was part of a gate that used electricity to "close" instead of doors. That's how advanced Egypt was. Must be because they were trade partners with Atlantis or something.
What the fuck are you talking about, Atlanta isn't real. It was clearly aliens
Ever noticed how there's two Georgias
Ah yes, things that look the same must be the same. Much science.
Hmm... This ape skeleton looks like this human skeleton...
WAIT! NOT LIKE THAT!!!
The other thing on the right image is a big container full of oil - will you now claim ancient civilisations had those too?!?
Does olive oil count?
From that Popeye chick?
Idk, I don't think it's the same period.
The thing about any crackpot argument for "ancient electricity" that just dawned on me, is that they call it The Bronze Age for a reason, the ancients insisted on the versatility of their metal (bronze = copper + tin) over its' conductivity (pure copper).
There was a more ancient Copper Age, but it was brief, bronze was the definition of a technological leap forward.
OK, that's not as nuts as some of these. So what are the artifacts?
They're made out of wood and the wires are museum mounts.
Per this site, they're furniture decorations.

Sorry... you think believing the Ancient Egyptians had electricity because those things look kind of like electrical insulators isn't nuts? Because I have news for you- two things can look alike and be totally different things.
This, for example, is not a petrified screw. It's a crinoid. A once-living sea creature.
I don't know what those Egyptian things are, but it is definitely nuts to assume they're electrical insulators just because they resemble them.
It's nuts that looks like a bolt.
Don't worry, I got your joke!
It's the "stem" of an ancient sea creature (an animal, not a plant) from about 400 million years ago that looked something like this:
This is sea lily, one of its modern descendants:
Ah, so that's where screws come from. TIL!
This is amazing, omg 😲 why didn't we see this before! Egyptians had electricity and only this guy found it...
/s (in case...)
If you use an emoji here, it's assumed you're being sarcastic and pretending to be one of them
Well, I never know in today's internet. That's why I said "in case".
Have you not seen those big teslacoil defence tower–monolith things? How did you think those were powered?
They only built the pyramids because a voice shouted: "Silos needed".
Makes sense, can't have minerals from Agarttha piling up out in the open.
those where obviously fueled with the refined tiberium they imported from Agarttha
Sacrifices? God's will? Oh no, sorry aliens... it was aliens 👽
I'm no Egyptologist, but I think I saw on the interwebs someone had proof it was aliens, they just can't share the proof right now...
/s (again)
Yes, definitely aliens, because no way did those Brown people ever come up with how to build such complex structures. Nope. Definitely aliens. White aliens at that. Probably from the Anglo Saxon galaxy.
Alien sacrifices for favourable gods will, yes, that is correct.
And yes, it was (mostly) aliens bcs if higher copper concentration in their blood.
How could anyone believe Egyptians had electricity by wire, that doesn't make any sense.
I wonder what the ancient Egyptians named their electrical companies. 🤔 I think Nile Current and Pyramid Power Co. sound pretty good
