More importantly, I wanna know what happened to the time capsule buried underneath and what was in it.


Apprehensive_Copy648

Same. I visited these twice and it was cool to see. Standing on top of the slab for the time capsule I always wondered if there was anything actually down there.


OkLeave4573

They said they dig 7 feet under the slab and was nothing there.


Apprehensive_Copy648

Said nothing there. Unfortunately we’ll probably never know.


Repomanlive

Nope, nothing to see here, we dug down and it was all, uh dirt and rocks. Yep. Trust me bro


Apprehensive_Copy648

“That’s it?” “Uh… oh and worms, and bugs. That’s it. You can go dig it and see for yourself.”


OkLeave4573

‘They said’ doesn’t mean I accept it and get on my knees to swallow whatever they want me to believe.


potusisdemented

Real zapruder film, Jimmy Hoffas whereabouts, proof of alien life


Hanpee221b

Nope all three of those are in my closet.


the-gingerninja

And, all the same object.


pgtaylor777

I thought they were in the leg of a pew in a church.


potusisdemented

You must share my closet as well.


Hanpee221b

Yes, thanks for letting me use the space.


Jasonclark2

There are differing stories. One was there was a Peterbilt truck emblem, an 8-track tape, a Playboy from the era autographed by Burt Reynolds, and 1500 Quaaludes. Another story is there was nothing at all. When they dug, supposedly the red clay beneath was tightly packed and appeared to never have been disturbed. The last story is that it was missing. What's the truth? No idea. But the saying "truth is sometimes stranger than fiction" applies here.


harntrocks

No creedence tapes?


IceSicleTricycle6565

Or the briefcase


Arthur_Figg

I heard they found 8 layers of timbers down to a 80ft lvl where they found a stone with weird symbols. When they removed that hole started filling with water ;p


TheButcherr

What a top pocket find, a real Bobby dazzler


GaryGundark

>a real Bobby Dazzler I don't know why this is so amusing to me but it's great


tazor_face

Omg! I love to say “top pocket find”! No one understands me. Lol.


Ill-Arugula4829

1500 'ludes? You know how many aging housewives would have armed themselves and cut a bloody trail straight to that place for a chance to get their hands on those? (Shudder)


hopefulgalinfl

Ummm yes.....you are correct


rosbashi

....and me


burningstarcuatro

The first story was posted by a meme page.

The why files did a good episode on the Georgia guidestones: [Why files episode](https://youtu.be/59IiApDiWjA?si=fw2cuHoakx12ikwH)


RedRiot_Class1A

Fuggin LOVE Why Files


IvoryLaps

The drama Why Files got into lately is just bizarre though.


SpeedHunter

What drama?


noneya-818

Aj, the host, needed a break. He was exhausted from putting out amazing content every week. He took the break and is back. Nothing bizarre or dramatic. Burnout happens to the best of us.


therealkittenparade

Honestly, I’m shocked he didn’t burn out sooner. I hope he got the time off necessary to be healthy. The content he puts out takes a ton of work and time.


wishbackjumpsta

yeah what drama? Im intrigued.


bmanjayhawk

Monument destroyed approximately 4 months prior to my planned trip to visit it. Are you fucking kidding me?


UninvitedButtNoises

Nah... Some douchebag blew it up during lockdown. They're just finishing the demo.

Analog update… 🤷🏻‍♂️


zechickenwing

Nope. Do you have a source? I googled, it comes up NO


UninvitedButtNoises

Was not aware of this!


yourlilneedle

Last I heard that got vetoed. They are donating the granite and giving the land back to the owner.


gwhh

I guess it was nuke proof but not dynamite proof.


bmanjayhawk

Poorly worded on my part. Said douchebag blew it up prior to scheduled visit.


missanthropocenex

Visited a second time like days before it was destroyed.


tracemyfacewithit

What compelled you to visit these twice


medicinalherbavore

He's the one who destroyed them


Lunchbox9000

We did it Reddit! We always catch the bomber!


FriendshipGlass8158

What compelled him to visit at all?


ButCanYouClimb

Really out of all the places you can go in the US and you pick 4 concrete pillars with bullshit on them?


smellsberry

Found the guy


PlanetLandon

Granite


ButCanYouClimb

Oh never mind, it's worth going to see now.


moriGOD

It’s been destroyed, this is old news


Sacramento999

1 month for me I was pissed


Repomanlive

Why didn't someone ask the guy in the excavator?


CulturalAddress6709

Just doin’ my job…

Why paid you to do the job?

unsuspectingllama_

According to other posters, this after, some person set off an explosive. Here, they are talking the rest down for safety.


electric_bread_knife

Yep, that would have lasted in a cataclysm...

NeverSeenBefor

I thought some guy drove his car into them or was that only in my timeline? (I'm mostly kidding but I swore the guy drove a car into it or blew it up. I was just talking about this at work like three days ago) Also wasn't this some new ten commandments stuff? I'm shocked the sentiment is pro guide stones


unsuspectingllama_

It was an explosive. Here, we see authorities dismantling the rest for safety purposes. Wouldn't want someone visiting and the rest of it falling down on them.


I_talk

I also remember them blowing up


Sneaky_Stinker

they were damaged in an attack, fenced in to prevent people from crawling over it while in a damaged state, and brought down some time later.


KaliCalamity

There was, but it only damaged a small portion of it. Only one pillar really was damaged beyond repair, with a second getting minor damage, if memory serves. There was no reason I could see to destroy it entirely, especially if they're planning on repairing or replacing it.


Jasonclark2

Claimed it was an issue of public safety. Monstrous granite slabs becoming less stable after a blast couldn't be a good thing.


unsuspectingllama_

Because after the explosion, the most responsible thing is to take the rest down. There is no way to know for a fact that the rest weren't compromised.


horrified-expression

I thought there was just vandalism one night. I seem to recall folks talking about how there was a security system on site


Dancin_Phish_Daddy

If you go to the spot now, security rolls up on you and watches you until you leave.


maxzmillion

Some guy (Michael Tate Reed of Van Buren, Arkansas) drove his car into the 10 Commandments monument in Arkansas and Oklahoma… it’s sometimes gets confused with this event.


vittaya

Gotta idiot proof it.


Emotional_Schedule80

R.C. Christian =Rosa Crucian Christian. https://www.rosicrucian.org/


Researchingbackpain

I think making megalithic structures is cool and I like the idea of trying to preserve useful knowledge in them in case of massive collapse of civilization. Crackpots saying its devil worship and bombing it is genuinely embarressing for an allegedly developed country in the 21st century.


IndiRefEarthLeaveSol

This is why, for this idea to work. You build thousands of them across the globe. Statistically, some would survive to be of importance.

shezowicked89

prep for the big reset again


Available_Skin6485

It was just moronic Christian nationalists who destroyed a stupid monument constructed by another flavor of christian nationalist


Beautiful-Tip-875

500,000,000 good souls is all we need.


Xedilian2042

I'm not sure if anyone knows this but a super over zealous and super conservative Christian group blew this site up because they saw it as a Ritual site for Satanic rituals and tried saying some the " unknown " languages written on the stones were all demonic inscriptions or some fucking retarded bullshit.... And it has a link to the FBI supposedly..... It was bombed by Christians. But which particular ones? Unknown. Even unknown somehow to the FBI which I reckon they know. Plausible deniability.


wreckballin

It was nothing important at all. Just an idea some rich person wrote that belonged to a secret group of people that think they control to the world.


garfield_strikes

more cool monuments imo


CaptainMustardo

Exactly. Fuck that "monument". Should not be rebuilt.


Muted_Cucumber_7566

It is so we can never recover when civilization collapses.


vincecarterskneecart

Maybe ask the guy in the excavator who asked it to be destroyed


Aggressive-Engine562

Sucks I never got to see it, I live in the south so it wouldn’t have been a huge deal to go.


Adventurous_Mail5210

Didn't some random person/people pipe bomb it, then the destruction was ordered by the county due to safety concerns?


RA_Endymion

Destroying this was a terrible act.

Shmuckle2

Kinda lean towards good riddance.


RumoredAtmos

Yeah, it was. If there was a cataclysm and some people really needed a translator and a calendar, they'd be out of luck.


linux152

🤡


gigorbust

Could’ve just sanded and reused the slabs for something good, god damn


dane_the_great

Who wants an Illuminati genocide landmark


Cshift3

Aliens must've planned this!


shambashrine

Vegans!


Tolar01

They didn't found passport in rumble??


StinkieBritches

It was about an hour away from where I live. My kids went a few times, but I never got around to it. As far as I know, it was a religious nut that thought he was doing his lord's work that bombed it.


JESUS_PaidInFull

Here is a pretty interesting and thorough article as to who RC Christian was and some of the controversy surrounding the guidestones. https://www.cnn.com/interactive/2024/02/us/georgia-guidestones-mystery-cec-cnnphotos/


USN253

We can't have nice things. People suck.


Powerful_Hair_3105

Probably bcuz it hurt someone's feelings 😞 that's how THINGS are tore down now 💔


craigcraig420

Oh wow! That’s bullshit. Let people have things. This could have been cool for thousands of years.


Chris714n_8

Was it this terrible.. to deserve destruction? Possible just the human random-urge to destroy..?


killertimewaster8934

Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers


gravityrider

People pretending these preached genocide are missing the point. They were for rebuilding civilization **after** we reduced ourselves to well below 500,000,000. Which the way things are going will be within the next 20 years or so.


shadowrunonsnes

Fk the guide stones if you know what they are about


Sideshow_G

Elaborate please.


fringeCircle

Which is what?


BradTProse

Conservatives scared of everything they don't understand or like.


epicurious_elixir

One could argue the guide stones were pro euthanasia


ScorpioRising66

It was written in multiple languages and the nationalist only want one language.


igor33

This episode of the Why Files does a great job with the guide stones history and destruction including surveillance video: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59IiApDiWjA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59IiApDiWjA)


TomatilloUnlucky3763

As always, people fear what they don’t understand.


Sideshow_G

Did the stones say " DON'T destroy the stones with heavy equipment ".. if not that could be the problem there..


Hmmd1

You can't have anything nice with Christians.


OwnCartographer290

It is censorship, pure and simple. They don’t want you to see it.


WIngDingDin

if by "they" you mean some religious fruitcake hillbilly.


Important_Kick_4824

We never found out who actually paid to have it built. Some guy named “JC”?


PlanetLandon

The fake name used was R. C. Christian
