Discussion Did Nikola Tesla actually invent wireless power, or did he just figure out how the ancient world was already pulling energy from the earth?
Something has been bugging me lately whenever I see people talk about Nikola Tesla and the Wardenclyffe tower he built in New York
Mainstream history acts like he was just an eccentric inventor who ran out of money trying to send electricity through the air, except he had backing from J. P. Morgan right up until the moment Morgan realized Tesla was trying to pull natural electrical charge out of the ground so anyone on earth could use it for free without wires or power meters. once the bankers realized they couldn't charge people a monthly bill for it, they pulled his funding and tore the tower down
Then when he died in 1943, the government immediately stepped in and confiscated boxes of his personal files that still haven't been released over eighty years later.
I stumbled across a really interesting article earlier today that looks into what happened to his confiscated work, and the second half of the piece goes into how Tesla was tapping into the exact same natural earth grid that older civilizations used before that part of our history was wiped out. The way the article connects the suppression of ancient power grids to how the banking families keep modern society trapped in debt makes a lot of sense to me so i wanted to share this
has anyone else here looked into the connection between his tower and the older megalithic sites? I'll leave the link to the article i read here if anyone wants to read through it
