      That could only happen if we lost our knowledge of our history and had to continue building and other stuff humans do without our previous knowledge of humanity and humanity’s common customs. I can see it though. Maybe too far in the future for the headstones to still be there much less be in place. I mean they sink and rot away in a matter of decades. A few centuries and they’re just lumps of rock on the ground a few hundred more, just a bunch of coffins and bones under a field or forest or lake.

    I know this is like a year old but the "Land" Established Titles is selling is owned by a Chinese company, which isn't actually selling pieces of it just saying anyone who gives them money owns part of their land without doing any of the legal background of transferring property or stakeholder rights. They're also misinterpreting a 600 year old law no one uses any more so even if they were selling you a patch of land you still wouldn't be a Scottish Lord. They also aren't planting any trees or participating in any conservation efforts just borrowing numbers from groups actually doing that (which considering one of the biggest reforestation groups in Scotland is actually tearing down trees to mimic storm damage is kind of ironic (the tearing down thing is about converting tree farms to actual forests)).

Usually with antagonistic groups in history theres a way to rationalize the thibgs they did. But the nazis had no excuse for murdering and experimenting on all those innocent people. They are physical proof that evil existed.
      But evil still exists its everywhere and every single one of us is capable of evil. The people you trust to protect you can hurt you for their own gains or make mistakes with the best intentions. The chaos and uncertainty of this world is scarier to conspiracy theorists than thinking theres still nazis in the background, a source of evil thats pulling the strings.

      could also have been an art student carving dolls to sell on the side to earn some extra cash. after all, wooden dolls were very common in thw 18th century, and while most of the ones we have well preserved today were fairly high end and well made ones, those would have gone for a fortune.. and be made by highly experienced professionals. a student or a recent graduate just starting out would have been much less polished in skills.. but even lower quality carvings would sell well to poorer families, who wouldn't be able to afford the high quality dolls. and wood dolls tended to be kept in wooden boxes to protect them. so someone could improve their skill level in making dolls and make some cash on the side. sale of craftsman made items would have been highly regulated though, if done officially, so hiding them then selling a few at a time covertly would have been a way to ensure that they benefit from the sales rather than the school.

      God I hate you for putting this though in my mind, that some little "psycho ex" type girl way back in the day made toy burials and we speculate about it today. Like she was "you get buried because you broke up with me after you found out I was putting heroine in your coffee so you would always eat breakfast with me, you get buried because you didn't kill your parents that didn't want us being together after I wanted to stich our hands together so you never leave me, you get buried after you left me when I burned down a house of this hoe that said hello to you on the street.... I fucking swear I'll do this one day for real, you all deserve it for not appreciating my love mother fuckers"
      I had an ex that after I dumped her for being psychotic, first tried to kill herself so I would get back to her, then send threats with videos and pictures shooting at mannequins of me and my family, even with flame throwers and explosives and finally went to prison after she got caught rigging my and my new gf house with explosives, apparently she already rigged my family house with fire bombs already and blocked all the exits, she wanted my parents to call me from a burning house before blowing me up, if my mom didn't wake up and smelled the gasoline I wouldn't be here today.

Hitler was responsible for so much why lie. Or if you mean why won't the historian present Nazi Germany as a Saturday morning cartoon villain it's because politics in real life is complained and there is a lot that led to what happened. There are alot of people in a country and not all of them deserved what happens in war time. I hang around alot of history circles online and I've seen a few "Nazis" but I suspect they were teenagers so they were probably trying to be edgy. Not historians but still I don't see alot of people who are genuine Nazis. I know they exist but they usually stick to their own community because most history circles don't like them. Same with the people who spout " The south will rise again" garbage. They aren't welcomed in most history circles

    For those who can't wait for the debunking of the "elongated skull" thing, it's just a human. Intentional Skull Deformation is a surprisingly common practice throughout human history and across the world. You wrap the heads of babies (which you probably shouldn't do), allowing their soft baby skulls to harden in an elongated shape, like that of a cone. There's evidence to suggest this wasn't that harmful to the child's quality of life, and many cultures did it for years, to the point many historical accounts directly reference cultures or peoples that did so.

      Even without specific intent, human infant skulls are so malleable that babies who spend too much time lying on their backs frequently develop squarish heads that sometimes need a soft helmet to reshape. If a person searches "square head" on Google images, one of the first few results will be a picture from the 90s of a redhead toddler with a VERY square head. That photo is my friends brother, and he has a very average shaped head now even though it was basically a cube when he was little. I can easily imagine some pseudoscience idiot finding a very square kids skull somewhere and deciding it must be an alien or new kind of human.

When I was a kid, my mom worked with kids with craniofacial differences, and one of the most common things she saw was kids who were in convertible carseats-carriers whose heads got a bit flat just from staying in one position all the time. It's wild that people forget that even though there's a "standard" human body-plan, plenty of people are born with extra fingers, or laterally-swapped organs, or a fetus in fetu, or extra teeth or no teeth, or teeth in a teratoma on their thigh. If you saw a documentary about it on TLC in 2009, that doesn't mean it didn't happen in 9BC. Dwarfism and gigantism and conjoined twins and microcephaly and limb agenesis and Treacher Collins and hydrocephaly happen in non-human mammals, just like it's been happening in humans since before we were humans!

      Exactly. Plus... have these people ever seen what kind of alien-looking flora and fauna we have right now on Earth, without even looking at extinct species? And how it gets even crazier once you take into account how bizarre injuries, birth defects, or even deliberate body modification can look? Just because something, or someone, looks strange, doesn't mean they're extraterrestrial. They might even be what inspired our ideas of what an ET would look like, for better or for worse.

      This is exactly the way holocaust deniers are acting. With misinformation and mystification.
      I very much hope that it is at least a small relief for you that in modern Germany history classes (including the suffering and crimes caused by the Nazis) are part of the curriculum of every school and every kid will learn this shameful part of our common history. In addition, our courts condemn this form of hate speech and punish those who spread misinformation or disrespectfully and misrepresent historical events (Like Holocaust denial)[1]. To this day (2023) collaborators and helpers of the Nazi-Regime are put to court (yes, late ... but not too late ... and you can only held court if you know about the case).
      I wish you and your loved ones the best and please do not feel uncomfortable because I am German. As mother and knowing what happened in our history, I am shocked and disgusted by the presentation that Miniminutemen debunked.
      [1] This is different from the US. "Your" modern (American) Nazis there appeal to "freedom of speech", meaning: the right to express one's personal opinion (particularly in political terms). However, they forget that hate, lies and threats are NOT opinions, but rather a lack of character, a lack of education and a judgement.
