Reply to comment by sennbat in TIL that the "Lost City of Atlantis" was invented by the philosopher Plato, as a fake enemy for Athens that lost favour of the gods and was sunk in to the sea. by PDRugby
Yeah, sry. Downvote me all you want guys. In Platos own words, his grandfather told him about the story of Atlantis. And there are lots of writings about an “Atlantis” long before Plato. It’s an easy google. But whatever. Plato is the inventor of Atlantis. Lmao!

If they're so easy to google why not, I dunno... bring one up?

Bro, lol, people were talking about “Atlantis” thousands of years before Plato. Just like the story of Jesus had been told by multiple cultures hundreds of years before the Christian Jesus. Chill bro…

Provide a single example of anyone talking about Atlantis at any point prior to Plato. You said there are lots of those writings. Share just one.

Is google really that hard for you to use?

Apparently, since I can't find any. Or maybe, just maybe, your many examples don't actually exit! Gee, I wonder which is more likely.
