Video: Traditional methods of gilding versus ancient technologies

The technology used 2,000 years ago to apply thin metal films to statues and household items surpasses modern standards for the production of DVDs, photocells and electronic devices. How is this possible?
A 2013 scientific report states: "[…] the quality of ancient art products is superior to that of antique products and has not yet been achieved with the help of modern technology."
Traditional methods of gilding and silvering have been developed based on the use of mercury. They were used to cover the surface of jewelry, statues and amulets with a thin layer of silver or gold.
Often used for decorative purposes, gilding and silvering were also used to deceive buyers who believed that the entire product was made of gold or silver.
Ancient gilders 2 thousand years ago made metal coatings thin and uniform, increasing the durability of products and saving on more expensive materials.
Today's humanity has not yet reached this level of quality.
Despite the seeming lack of knowledge about physical and chemical processes, ancient artisans obtained amazing results thanks to the manipulation of metal.
One method involved using mercury as an adhesive. Then, thin films of precious metals were applied to the object.
Studies have shown that ancient people possessed deeper knowledge and skills than previously thought.
Other examples of advanced ancient technologies that confuse scientists
Antikythera mechanism
Another example of ancient advanced knowledge is the 2,000-year-old Antikythera mechanism, which was apparently used to calculate solar and lunar eclipses and the position of celestial bodies.
The movement contained at least 30 bronze gears in a rectangular wooden case, on the bronze front and back panels of which dials with arrows were placed. Two rectangular bronze protective plates covered the front and rear panels.
Baghdad battery
The Baghdad battery also belongs to the category of ancient advanced technologies. It is a clay pot with a copper cylinder with an iron rod in the center. It is the earliest known form of electric battery.
The level of complexity of mechanisms and technologies from 2000 years ago seems incredible!

What surprises foreigners in the traditional upbringing of the Russian nation?
We Americans pride ourselves on our skill, skill, and practicality. But, having lived in Russia, I realized with sadness that this is sweet self-deception. Maybe - it was like that once. Now we - and especially our children - are slaves of a comfortable cage, in the bars of which a current is passed, which completely prevents the normal, free development of a person in our society. If the Russians are somehow weaned from drinking, they will easily conquer the entire modern world without firing a single shot. I declare this responsibly

Propaganda methods and technologies based on specific examples
Someone considers the manipulation of the masses to be a high art, and people who do such things are top-class professionals. In fact, due to the lack of any individuality in the crowd, it is elementary to manage it. All these methods of management and control are universal for all countries of the world, and many of them are actively practiced for a hundred
