Name a conspiracy theory superior in raw power to “there are no actual forests on Earth"

imma need some context on that cause WHAT?

“forests” = minuscule form of what trees on Earth can be, basically saplings
“mesas” = not landforms, but petrified ancient tree trunks
IIRC the theory goes that all forests on Earth were destroyed ages ago and it takes them ridiculous times to regrow, with those giant mammoth redwood trees just being the oldest ones that have grown the most

evidence 1:

This conspiracy theory is absolutely wild and includes the assertion that all rocks are left over remnants of plants/trees from a “silicon era”. Although it’s obviously.. not true.. they really have some amazing photos that feed your imagination of a fantasy world, i’ve compiled their best:

do you think giant trees would have proportionally giant branhes or would they just be like furry green spears? LOL

I love how the implication is that the flat tops of mesas were caused by something equally enormous CUTTING THEM DOWN

this pic from my biology textbook is way funnier than it needs to be

I hate being a bio major bc I know exactly what this stupid picture is referring to

do tell

there are these things called survivorship curves and there are three types Type I (shown in red) Type II (blue) and Type III (green) They’re created by looking at birth and death rates of a given species and the curve shows at what point in time an organism of a specific species will die. For example, humans have a fairly low infant mortality and if you make it to around age 16 you’ll probably survive until you’re around 75 unless there’s an accident or you have some undetected disease that would cause you to die early. Type III are plants, fish, and other marine animals that have a very low chance of survival at birth but if they make it past infancy they will likely live to their life expectancy. Type II are birds, small lizards and mammals and they really just die randomly.
