when reality denies their daydreams. They don't get they are free to dream but they are not free to strangle Truth in favour of their version of reality. Read this long first chapter. Mr B. copycatted by Daniken & Hancock, still gives honesty, knowledge, moral ground, humour. I miss him.

much to my chagrin is not mentioned, understood and applied by some twitterati. oblivious facts are stubborn. They pretend to debunk while using spades made of sand, they challenge without providing a single PROVEN discovery. They rewrite history, reality to the point of enjoying tantrums 🧵⬇️

Here I am reading his 'livre des ancient astronautes' published in 1977. I suggest to every potential believer in extraterrestrial tourists and other Plato readers limiting him/her/self to Atlantis chapters to read what is told about what a theory is about. What science implies. Something 🧵⬇️

He was an bona fide certified engineer in chemistry, a polyglot who was also interested in little green men. With such a bio, why not! He passed away in 1978 managing none the less to be sailing closer to facts than modern fans of the 'theory of ancient astronauts' and other 'lost civilisations'.🧵⬇️

Fate led me to read old paperbacks. In particular dear Jacques Bergier. Mr B. united being a legit freedom fighter/Gestapo torture survivor/Concentration camp inmate/survived again/Tintin cartoon character & a strong interest into 'strange' things. Why not as he had earned it unlike some. 🧵⬇️

Loyal to the Tricolours, Union Jack, Tricolours black, yellow, red of Belgium etc. It would be paradoxical that it is the very state of Israel who would be doing its very best at proving Nazis belief Jews were disloyal citizens was true.
Loyal but not to Israel. Just friends. Nothing more.

Morangles @morangles.bsky.social · 2d

Putting Israel interests above the duty one's owes one's country. In fact belittling their nationality, making a mockery of their loyalty to their country. I believe these French, British, Belgian etc Jews are loyal French, British, Belgian citizens. Newsflash to @donaldjtrump-maga.bsky.social ./.

Fact: Israel population increased drastically after WW2 because of the Shoah. In 1947, they became officially Israeli. It remains a lot of Jews chose to remain in Europe. Since then, Israel has chosen to look at these European citizens whose religion was Israelite as some sort of 5th column. ./.

Cartoon titled "Earth’s first science fair" showing three cavemen presenting inventions: a “pointy stik,” “fire,” and a “weel.” A judge gives third place to the stick, second to fire, and first place to the wheel, while the cavemen stand proudly behind their creations.

For all the strutting South of the border, the result is the same. What matters is winning the war, not a random battle. America has not won the 1812 war.

Morangles @morangles.bsky.social · 3d

Considering it was the USA who initiated the war, who tried to invade Canada (Canada reply "Thanks but No, Thanks" echoing 2025 answer to Trump). The result of said war was inconclusive ... once again Native Americans who suffered most. Adding US had to build a new WH. ./.

Because of their numerous offspring, #frogs were considered a symbol of fertility.
