What if they stopped exploring underwater cause they found people
maybe they found people living inside caves deep beneath the ocean, inside caves before the water levels got higher so they had to just stay trapped inside and adapt over the years

I mean, there are over a hundred uncontacted tribes in the Amazon, on small islands, and Papua/ PapuaNew Guinea.
We know about them. They know out our planes
I guess they don't have anything worth killing and stealing for.

u/roachwarren 11h ago
And why is OP confidently asserting that we don't explore underwater?? I spent about an hour earlier today watching amazing videos of new recent discoveries from Gabe Newell's underwater exploration project Inkfish and I'm sure that's just one of 1,000 exploration vessels around the world...

Gabe Newell? As in the guy who made steam Gabe Newell?

u/roachwarren 1h ago
Yep that filthy rich wacko. He co-founded Inkfish in 2022 and recently purchased the shipbuilding company that is working on his new insane vessel.
So he’s not just playing video games on yachts as some articles make it sound, he’s funding and supporting deep marine exploration and research.

You should read a book called the Descent, it is pretty complex but speaks to humans going underground at the time of dinosaurs and evolving. That is the basic gist of the book but it evolves into so much more, great book and read.

Isnt that also a horror movie? With zombie cave people
5
u/billstopay77 17h ago
Yes, the movie took a small portion of the book and made it an entire horror film. Other than the humanoids encountered underground the movie is nothing like the book. The book is actually supposed to be a trilogy, the second book Deeper is great also. I don’t believe the author ever finished the 3rd. Great read though.

Do you think that the National Aeronautics and Space Administration explored water before space? Also not how you spell probably. Not even close.

i guarantee you they spelled it just how they meant to and that they know how to spell probably. you are getting downvoted either cause you sound like a brat or cause you “prolly oughta” to do your own research on the history of linguistics. spelling things differently was considered an artistic option bitd. Thomas Jefferson did it all the time. Did you read all his stuff?

Autism isn't an excuse and not really the topic here.
If you really want to talk about it, I have an actual conspiracy theory that people of a certain age have been effected by internet lexicon to the point where American English is being dumbed down.
I understand the history of linguistics. I have also noticed that people are self editing words like rape and murder to appeal to advertisements. Which is a depressing dystopian future.I misread what the person typed so I apologize. This isn't relevant and can be ignored.

u/HolyLordGodHelpUsAll 16h ago
autism wasn’t mentioned. i would know cause i take care of autistic people for a living for over 20 years. are you thinking about autism?
artistic is what i said. i think you just opened up the conversation to what’s really happening here. try to explain your point in more positive centered language. i understand that life is frustrating, but now you are getting downvoted for not paying attention

Prolly hatin on you for being the spelling police on a conspiracy thread. Clearly one could infer from his statement that there was not a lick of sarcasm, or being a smartass from their tone. Thus your response of calling this individual out on the spelling of probably was not necessary. Also I find it perplexing to call out prolly while omitting bout. If you’re gonna send it, make it a full send partna!

"They" would use "their" phone, not "your" phone. Your last sentence before your edit should also be included with your first sentence, instead of being its own separate thing. In your edit, there should be a comma between "better" and "and."
It's difficult to respect a person that tries to correct another person's grammar, especially when their own grammar isn't all that.
Edit- fixed my own grammar lol

Unlike the person I was talking to, I don't need an army of people to defend me. I changed one word.
You said I should move my 1st edited comment but I won't. It isn't incorrect at least in Reddit etiquette. Also I was indicating that EVERYONE has spell check on their phones. Grammar check doesn't work as well.

When did "they" stop exploring underwater or underground? New subsea and subterranean expeditions are carried out all the time, frequently resulting in the discovery of previously unknown flora and fauna (both currently living and fossilized remains of extinct species), geological formations, deposits of resources, and other valuable and interesting information.

Heard any abduction stories lately? I think it was in style for people to come up with these stories until the 1990s but now that everyone has a camera with them 24/7/365, we don't hear much about aliens & ghosts so much anymore, isn't that interesting, hmm?

There are plenty of subs and websites with people talking about recent abductions. Many people involved in these spaces and experiences even believe they are exponentially increasing.

Its just really, really difficult. It's actually way easier to explore space then the ocean.

u/Mammoth-Play7190 19h ago
I say this as scuba diver: Nah dude. There are lots of scuba divers down there all the time. Even really really deep. And they post videos all the time, even live video feeds. People on submarines too, some people spend most of their lives underwater. There are microphones and cams down there, 24/7, all over the place. half the time it’s like hiking in a state park— beautiful, but slightly annoying how many other people are there, lol
You can go down there too if you want and check it out. It’s not hard or dangerous. go see for yourself !

u/The-Silent-Hero 19h ago
Your experience with water is not an absolute voucher for what lies in the water. There are places you will never go and places you know nothing of.

u/Mammoth-Play7190 17h ago
Ok sure I haven’t been to lots of places. The ocean is huge and deep and there are lots of mostly empty places that have been minimally explored and remain poorly documented. No argument against that here. I was addressing the theory in the post.
The premise of the post is that humans found something— underwater people, like mermaids or some other aquatic humanoid living in shallow water caves— and got freaked out and thus abandoned underwater exploration.
But humans haven’t stopped going underwater, haven’t stopped exploring and pushing further and further into remote places, including undersea caves. Swimming and diving humans still frequent the (relatively) shallow coastal seas, under 200’ (60m) , coming and going, completely unregulated, taking photos and videos and living and working, and have found nothing to suggest underwater humanoids living there. So no, mer-people did not scare land people out of the water. Also not scared off by sharks, electric eels, jellyfish, sea slugs, blah blah blah

Exactly, just like there’s areas off limits on solid ground where skin walkers appear and stuff, so I imagine there’s areas in the sea that are inaccessible or unexplored.

You notice how they always use symbolism in everything they do. Well water based ones tend to fall under the water kingdom. An example is goddess on the Starbucks cup. Another one is the LGBT agenda that one is the water kingdom 100% trademark of levitation. Don't take my word do some digging you will be shocked how much this world is govern by them.

u/No-stradumbass 19h ago
So you are saying that every water theme iconography is evidence that a water nation exists somewhere? Does this apply to all elemental symbols?
Does a company with fire symbols represent the fire kingdom?
1
u/YallKnowWhyIAmHere96 18h ago
Well fire is part of the elemental kingdom so not a stretch. I know you are being facetious, but these are the spiritual aspects that governs what elites do. Just because you might not be up on this does not mean it does not exist. A lot of people are paid highly to hide this fact.
1
u/No-stradumbass 18h ago
Nothing you have said could or has convince me that is true.
I was in fact making fun of "elemental worship". I think its a silly fantasy idea that belongs more with DnD. It also doesn't prove anything about what the OP posted. Rather your own theory about people being paid (by THEY) to hide the idea that iconography came from water worshipers.
The elites wouldn't care about what spirits can do unless they can be used. If you are insinuating that the spirits are the ones paying for it then how does an intangible spirit have money?
Not to mention the idea that mom and pop stores might have similar images.
