a little late today because i fell asleep lmao
fuck the "history" channel
No joke, start digging into the guys who made ancient aliens and not too long after you start seeing Nazi shit in their past. Like explicitly so, not tangentially related, not "neo" but actual Nazis. Historical revisionism is literally the basis of the show, so you shouldn't be surprised that the main players are Holocaust deniers.
Wanna know who wrote the book the show is based on? It wasn't Von Daniken. He only wrote the first, unsuccessful draft. Utz Utermann rewrote the second draft that actually became very popular. Guess where he was from? Guess what he was doing during WW2? Writing propaganda for the Hitler Youth and working as the editor for Nazi newspapers. I'm dead serious.
Ancient Aliens is just soft selling literal, actual mystic Nazism and it always, always, always has been.
They put rocks on top of other rocks?? Impossible! Must've been aliens.
Recently I’ve been so sus of Netflix docs. Is this ancient unknown global civilization bs or actually a doc with serious intelligent people? Who knows!
yeah i've come not to expect anything good from modern netflix, not just with documentaries but in general. the only reason i still have access is because of password sharing but even then i still never watch & it's free lmao
There is definitely some quality context, exclusive and otherwise. Arcane is phenomenal. Kipo was pretty good. She-ra was great. Stranger Things is pretty well done. Umbrella Academy is good. Inside Job is funny. And then beyond that, it has tons of other content from elsewhere. I don't know about their documentaries because they don't get advertised that much to me, so not sure what these comments are even referencing to be honest.
I feel like anyone who can't find something on Netflix just isn't trying.
It's a shame they cancelled Inside Job. In fact, if they stopped cancelling great original shows after only 1-2 seasons I'd have nothing negative to say about Netflix.
Yeah, their cancellations haven't really been great choices all the time. I think they have bean counters using old school methods to try and determine what to cancel and it doesn't work on streaming.
Standing ovation!
