      They probably had internet in Atlantis, or something like it, so that would be a shutdown of like 20,000 years or so before it was invented again.

      Akshually, they have Internet, it’s just turned off.

      The Internet and infrastructure didn’t exist for billions of years, so they couldn’t be without something that didn’t exists

      Don’t be a pendant, you know what they fucking meant.

      Edit: actually, it’s not even pedantic, it’s just wrong. Before the internet existed, there was never an internet shutdown.
