Explanation: For some bizarre reason, a common conspiracy theory is that aliens built the Pyramids.

Here, the TRUTH is revealed - aliens DID visit with the intention of revealing the secrets of building big-ass triangles, but the Ancient Egyptians not only beat them to it, they built a nice Sphynx in addition.

The aliens have been absent for several thousand years at this point developing the secret of building big-ass boxes in the hopes of having something to bestow on us on their next visit.

Can't wait to spoil that for them too!

I'm so conditioned to trust everything you say about history that I now accept this as fact.

Racism. The answer is racism.

Same reason the species of aliens that are in command of the ‘Greys’ are called the ‘Tall Whites’.
