I made the poor decision to begin interacting with history related posts of facebook and got pulled into conspiracy land.
Apparently there used to be a super advanced, globe spanning civilization called the Tartarian Empire. They collected free electricity from the aether. That’s why their old buildings have metal domes and spires. Their empire collapsed sometime in the mid to late 1800’s during a global calamity, a great mud flood.
The remains of their civilization can be seen in star forts dotted around the world. As well as every classical and neoclassical building ever built. Most of which were built long before Europeans arrived to the area. This includes their structures in the Americas, Africa, the Middle East, India, East Asia, and Oceania. Also, volcanoes don’t exist. They’re the buried remnants of Tartarian mega cities whose main power generators are unstable. That’s why lightening can be seen striking into and out of the ash clouds of volcanoes.
How could this have been kept a secret?
Well you see, shortly after the fall of the Tartarian Empire, insane asylums and state hospitals started popping up everywhere. Whenever somebody claimed to remember the tartarians or any of the time before the mud floods, they would be tossed into the loony bin and lobotomized. That all lasted till the mid 1900’s. By then the last of the people who truly remembered the Tartarian empire either fell into line or had been forced to forget.
I’m an official member of their Facebook group now. I’ll continue posting memes I can make from their stuff, until they either ban me, or I get black bagged by the government.
It gets even better. In order to help hide the existence of Tartarian structures, the shadow government orchestrated both world wars as a cover. It allowed them to demolish hundreds and thousands of buildings and blame it all on air raids and artillery strikes.
It apparently started as a Russian thing. An old map labeled large parts of Asia as different provinces of Tartary. This included a large part of Siberia called Muscovite Tartary. So Russians used it as a nationalism thing. It has sense grown to be a global conspiracy.
They controlled the world with robots and electricity. They built the pyramids and sphinx, as well as every building you can think of that even takes inspiration from Greco-Roman/classical design. They invented bastion and star forts, and built basically every structure you can think of that “historians” would tell you was in European hands all the way till 1900. They built the White House, the built most of the US and Canadian state and provincial capitals. They built the Eiffel Tower and most European castles.
Basically anywhere that you can see lightening striking with any sort of regularity was a building they constructed to harvest energy from the aether.
The Tartarian stuff takes it even further. They apparently not only built the pyramids, but every bastion fort and castle you can think of. As well as every building with classical style columns, and all domes. Especially if that dome is topped with a metal statue or spire to help collect the natural energies of the aether.
Well you see… it wasn’t aliens. The tartarians discovered how to draw free electricity from the aether using obelisks and dome structures. Same type of thing Tesla took credit for discovering. They had advanced machines and robotics.
When Europeans discovered some of their advanced structures they took photos of them, but by that time their civilization had already collapsed. That’s why old photos of guide buildings supposedly built in the 1800’s have no people in them. When you do start seeing photos and videos of people in these once abandoned cities you see them walking in a thick mud slurry. What type of civilization would build these giant pristine buildings but not pave their roads?
They did pave their roads, but the great mud flood swept across the world and depopulated their empire to the point of collapse. Combine that with the public demolition of their structures during different world fairs, and secret demolition using the world wars as a cover up and you can obviously start piecing the puzzle back together.
It originated as a piece of Russian pseudoscience nationalist propaganda. The Tartarians, aka Russian horde in some conspiracies, controlled most of the world until being whipped out by a great mud flood and having their advanced tech stolen. This explains why the great and powerful Russian people were behind the rest of the world technologically.
The modern conspiracy takes the “you can’t build big without modern equipment” type argument you usually see for African and Asian megastructures, drops the Russian nationalism angle, and applies it carte blanche to basically every structure bigger than a house built before the early 20th century.
They also built the white house and most of the capitol buildings. As well as every classical and neoclassical building. If it has columns and/or a dome, they think the Tartarians built it.
Essentially most of world history is completely fabricated by their account. Most of humanity was bunga bunga sticks and stones, except the 1 super advanced civ. They collapsed, and the rest of us just kind of took over their old buildings. Anybody who disagreed with just forgetting about the Tartarians got tossed into an asylum. Most of the really big buildings and the ones that were inconvenient to convert were demolished. Examples of that are the “temporary” structures built for the 1915 world fair in San Francisco. The ones they couldn’t find an excuse to demolish were deliberately targeted during the world wars.
