I did some snooping into that Steven Greer guy and it turns out kinda as u said in the tags. In his dumbass documentary he claimed that a skeleton of a fetus from Chile must be an alien because it looks unsual but it turned out that it suffered from genetic mutatations. Man ik it must have happened centuries ago but that sht makes me kinda sad. A woman lost her baby like this and then it was sold and paraded around as a weird novelty
I knew it!!! THAT is why I am wary about shit. Ugghhh. You know the fucked up thing about the so-called “Atacama Alien”? Her bone age was determined to be about 6 years at the time of discovery, and no more than 40 after further testing, so this shit was RECENT. And you know what else??? The deformities were likely the result of nitrate poisoning because nitrate mining was the only viable form of employment for many people in that area of Chile. Exposure to nitrate causes birth defects. I guarantee you it wasn’t being regulated properly and the mother of the child was probably forced to work while pregnant to keep a roof over her head. It’s fucked up.
#fucking tired of old crusty white guys parading around the culture and suffering of brown people to make absolute bank#it’s the goddamn freak show all over again it’s just dressed up with fancy degrees and professional budgets#sorry if this is heavy but I feel very strongly about this if you couldn’t already tell#shoutout to miniminuteman for educating people about shit like this in a fun engaging manner#milo you’re a saint#go watch him#and if you’re gonna watch that documentary coming out in June I would highly recommend pirating it#this would be the time to do that
