If there were previous advanced civilizations on earth, there would be traces of them. They would have left behind archeological artifacts and remnants of mining for heavy metals. Their tools and creations and structures would be easy to find, as ours will still be many millennia after we are gone.

There are no such traces because there were no such advanced civilizations. Away with ye, conspiracy nut.

So I'm not a plasma scarring.. guy or whatever that fella is, but there's absolutely megalithic structures remaining all over the world with zero explanation as to how they got there with varieties of dating methods putting a lot of doubt into how stone age peoples would have made them edit: anyone want to actually tell me why I'm wrong

That's seems like an extremely reductive response to what I said. Is there a current explanation for the ability of stone age peoples to move megalithic stones in such precise manner? Literally my only claim is that the lack of explanation for this indicates that there are aspects of our history that is either misunderstood, misrepresented, or not understood at all.

Yes, I know, rolling logs, walking the heads, there's theoretical or more solid explanations for much of it! But to act like I'm some brain dead pop culture idiot for wondering how people who supposedly barely had use of tools lifted stones weighing many many tons into precise shapes seems weird to me.

There are literally youtube videos where a single dude moves MASSIVE boulders with engineering(Math). Most people have an Ah hah moment where they double down or research, I hope you choose the latter.
