I never thought about it like this but it's so right 😭😭

I am sure racism plays a role, but also: how many old structures are there in Europe that were so fantastic that aliens become part of the conversation?

Correct. European buildings are just not as old as for example the pyramids. This has nothing to do with racism.

Edit: Oh and for example in case of stonehenge, people also believe it was build by aliens, even though it‘s in Europe.
