Check out my natural skincare products at Arvoti.comSome historical events have been hiding dark secrets.Between 1854 and 1929, more than 200,000 children were loaded onto trains and shipped across the United States. The deeper I went into the records, the less the official story held up. Many of these children were not orphans. Some had living parents; Some were taken because of poverty; Some just vanished into a system with almost no oversight at all.Once I started looking at what else was happening in that same time period, I couldn't unsee it. Cities were burning down one after another. Insane asylums were being built in places that didn't have the population to fill them. World fairs were putting up massive Roman-style buildings in empty fields and tearing them back down a year later. Baby incubators were a paid public attraction with real infants on display.I walk you through the orphan trains, the fires, the fairs, the asylums, the Cabbage Patch Kids, and a passage from the Book of Jasher that I genuinely could not stop thinking about. If a reset of history was happening, this is what it would look like.You’ll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[02:03] Over 200,000 children were relocated with no real oversight, and many weren't even orphans [04:42] The orphan trains weren't just an American phenomenon; it was happening worldwide [07:02] The great city fires of the 1800s and the dynamite theory nobody talks about [09:16] The world fair buildings that appeared overnight and were never supposed to exist [13:12] Why live infants were displayed alongside machinery at world fairs [19:17] Who were the insane asylums actually built for, and what happened to the people inside  [22:16] The Cabbage Patch Kids origin story might not be as innocent as it seems [23:15] The ancient text that was left out of the Bible and what it says about children in fields [28:05] What a global reset would actually look like, and whether we already lived through one Related Gubba Homestead Episodes:The World Fairs, Aether, and the Great ResetResources Mentioned:World's Columbian Exposition (Chicago World's Fair) | Wikipedia1984 by George Orwell | Book or AudiobookAncient Book Of Jasher | Book or AudiobookFind more from Gubba:Gubba Homestead | XGubba Homestead | FacebookGubba Homestead | InstagramGubba Homestead | PinterestGubba Homestead | WebsiteGubba Homestead Products | Shop
