@fineursine I watched a video on the rise of ancient aliens type crap on the history channel today that I thought you might find it interesting since I remember talking about chariots of the gods type stuff and how it is total dad bait. The follow up on the 2012 scaremongering end of the world documentaries also has some wild shit (the part about the guy searching for the crystal skulls completely sent me).
@fineursine Definitely. My dad eats this crap up, as well. At the benign end it’s just silly National treasure bullshit but it’s hard to watch this and not see the direct line to like, qanon (conspiracy treasure hunts that can be ‘solved’ by ’research’)
