I don't know if the person who posted that is sincere or not, but plenty of people sincerely believe this sort of thing when it is posted on Facebook.

Racism certainly plays a big part in the whole Atlantis/Ancient Aliens thing. When it was introduced by Madam Blavatsky, it was more blatant, but it's less so now, and the believers probably don't even think about it consciously.

But, as Milo "Minuminuteman" Rossi has pointed out in his debunking videos, the only European monument they can't believe that people didn't build was Stonehenge.
