An American Stonehenge: The Mysterious Georgia Guidestones
[See pinned comment for an important update.] In a field near Elberton, Georgia, USA, sit a set of mysterious standing stones: mysterious not because they’re ancient, but because they were funded by someone anonymous in 1980, perhaps as a message to any survivors of the end of the world.

One bit of information can change a whole story. Years later, it now seems likely — albeit not certain — that the Guidestones were commissioned by someone who wrote letters to newspapers praising a neo-Nazi. If I'd known that in 2018, this video would have been very different, or more likely non-existent. This John Oliver segment (starting at 13:33) quotes an obscure 2015 documentary, and sums it up nicely. Take it away, John: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEa3sK1iZxc?t=813 ■ And as of early July, they've been destroyed: see https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/jul/06/georgia-monument-guidestones-americas-stonehenge-bombed

Apparently built to last and also built to blast.

The simplest solution hardly ever is the truth. That is a lie told to the ignorant and vulgar masses.

Funny, just watched a video…look up the Japanese monument on guada canal . Somewhat the same shape looking down from above. 🤔🤔

“Maintain humanity under 500000000 in perpetual balance with nature” now we are facing a population decline, coincidence?
