Ancient Aliens is Racist
Yup.
Conspiracy theories are not just harmless fun; the 'ancient astronauts' theory grew from a long tradition of white supremacist pseudoarchaeology. This video examines that history, and how it continues to have consequences today.

You are mental 😂😂 not everything is racist 😂😂. People are that insane that even 76 million American trump voting Americans are apparently racist. Now trump has set tne most diverse cabinet in history 😂😂
Only a professional whiner would take ancient aliens seriously enough to be offended by it. 😁
Omg you are mentally ill and so are most of the replies lol
yes Ancient Aliens is bad but you made no senes Racism is a lie it 🤨🤐🤥
yeah pft imagine ancient aliens coming here to teach us how to build mounds what are these people smoking
Very interesting topic
Thank you. Uve brought to mind the entire premise of Battlestar Galactica.
The Mystery of mystery of mysteries of mysteries of mysteries is that sometimes Seth & HORUS are said to be ''Brothers'' and in some Pyramid scripts they are called ''Uncle & Nephew'' 93
Its 2024 and its been the same pattern of HORSE SHIT FOR 300 YEARS... Nomad invaders in the land dont make them he PEOPLE... An italian moving to america DOSNT MAKE THEM A NATIVE AMERICA... And then they pound yall with aliens ?? Dont you see ??? Aliens monsters alien gods reptilains... ITS CLEARLY A COVER UP OF BLACK PEOPLES GLOBALLY WHILE THE OTHER HAND SELLS YOU OUT OF AFRICA THEORY WHICH IS TIED TO EVOLUTION BY DEFAULT YET WE DONT SEE ANY MORE MONKEY HUMAN INBETWEEN OR HYBRIDS 😂😂😂😂😂😂 its all a simple multilayered MASONIC LIE PLOT FOR LAND CLAIM... This shit is not rocket science ... Afro negros are native to all lands... Albinos invade breed out then land claim and lie on original people... Its all the same doctrine scheme WAKE UP ITS 2024... NO ALIENS OR REPTILIANS RESPONSIBLE JUST MELINATED PEOPLES whos modern descendants are discredted because YALL BELIEVE IN ALIENS REPTILIANS AND MONKEY EVOLUTION... Because descending from a monkey is better than descendant from a BLACK .. its all one lie plot
How is it racist when they include people from just about every region and time on Earth?
Did you watch the video? It clearly shows how shows like ancient aliens often paint these amazing cultural archaeological finds are attributed to aliens, because in their minds there is no way "those people" outside of Europe could have built those buildings.
How is it not racist to pretend indigenous people didn't make their civilizations? Also including a couple of European sites is a recent addition originally they did not include Europeans from the books in the 1800s until ancient aliens the show was in it's 7th or 8th season.
The mainstream lost ancient high technology is pretty much only focused on brown people not being able to build their stuff. The Atlantis crowd is totally silent about the Roman’s carving and moving huge rocks with “primitive” tools. As Ben from unchartedX has said “do you really think this was built by loin cloth wearing savages?”
There are great channels that show how it was done and even demonstrate, such as Sacred Geometry Decoded, Scientists Against Myths, World of Antiquities. Check them out, fantastic channels!
Dude, they also claim that Stonehenge and Karnak Stone Circles in France were built by aliens as well. They're literally calling us all dvmb as if nobody's ancient ancestors were nothing but mindless prime-8s, black, brown and white.
I really think modern Ancient Alien theory is just mostly for entertainment. It may have roots to explain how the savage could have done some of these things because everyone is a tad egocentric and think they are the best and this was enforced because of the technological difference at the time. However now, if it causes people to look at ancient asteroid impacts, ask questions about what was before, give credit to ancient oral traditions that cause a person to go look into an area where one wouldn't is probably worth the dead ends and silly entertainment shows. Just don't discount what has been found for what might be found that could change some ideas. For example, the Bering Land Bridge being a definitive theory discounted and ruined a few finds and careers that are now being verified through taking in some oral traditions and finding sites older than 9000 years old. Bottom Line, it is fun to ask questions and if any new discoveries come from those questions of what if, then it is worth it providing you don't break stuff on the way and if there was an ancient astronaut, they were probably African, Indian, or Polynesian based on those old myths.
It's racist and you are making excuses for it because you are racist too.
Whoa there, us 'Aliens' originate from the Bostock area of Africa. Your scholarly method is discounting your people of color, our decedent's oral history is very white supremacist by your definition. We don't like how you discount our shared history. If Ancient Astronauts is based on War of the Worlds then those guys really missed the Colonialism point of that book. We built a lot of your Cyclopian buildings and walls. Granted you dressed up a lot of the old structures with additional work. A lot of us left around 12,000 to 8,000 BC to go explore and escape the incoming asteroid storm caused by the passing of Scholtz's Star. That was a mess indeed wiping out the American culture of the time. Atlantis was one of our last outposts before we vacated to the Antarctica bases. One of those rogue asteroids sent a wave over North Africa causing much of our decedent's displacement. They passed on their knowledge as best they could before going underground to the Egyptians, Chinese, Indigenous Americans, Indians, and those lost people of Sumer. Now we've lost the need for melatonin and burn terribly, we are closest genetically to Mid-Eastern African. So yes, we built the foundation of your culture mostly before we became astronauts. We are coming back. - Your friends, Ancient Aliens from Africa, the Greys.
😁😁😁
Noooooooo, don't close the Stargate!😧
It's. Not a white thing, dude they do it to every culture.It's not racist it's just stupid but you're being borderline the same as them
The premis of the video is correct, however the strongman argument at the beginning makes no sense. Why nitpick a african example? These conspiracy theorists point to examples that are greek, roman, incian, native american, egypgian, persian.... And im pretty sure your example is one of the few and far between instances of a "great" african civilization. I have read books on colonialism, and i 100% understand why the british didnt think the barbaric zulus that didnt even have a coherent society, who ripped the organs out of their enemies, who "set the soul free" by decapitating and mutilating their dead adversaries had any connection to, lets say a glorious monument in that area. This is not the result of white supremacism, this is a example of someone in the 2020's criticizing people from a different perspective hundreds of years ago, misinterpreting their misunderstanding as racism. These forced examples to be the victim makes your entire argument look bad. Yes these people are probably racist to egypgians, americans, ect. Your taking away from that real hate to show a artifcal instance of self victimization by the africans.
You need to try harder, Lord Smythe-Higging-Clark-Puddingworth, we can see you are a time machine user from the era attempting to rehabilitate your bloodthirsty butchers in red. You lobsterbacks can never be truthful, can you, old bean? It's no good, your cover is blown, back to your home time now. Your choice of terms and repetition of common pulp horrors used to angry up the dolts who could put on her majesty's uniform gave you away. You are clearly not a modern man. No modern person would be as openly and virulently propagandistic and untruly racist as you. Silly time traveler.
It smells a lot like woke leftist anti-white bullshit here.... We are all humans, and as a white caucasian born in North America and living there, I would not mind at all if a Japanese or a Nigerian archeologist was digging here where I live in order find artifacts of earlier times, I'd be grateful to him/her... No big deal... By the way, our ancestries were all slaves of other differents peoples/tribes/nations/kingdom etc.. all the accross the world at some point in time.... And also : white people did NOT invent slavery it ended it... And Columbus helped South Amerca to get rid of the bloodiest people ever, the snake lovers, the Aztecs... " The Tlaxcalans hated Aztecs so much that they became the most loyal allies of Spaniards for centuries. Even during Mexican war of independence most of the Tlaxcalans supported the Spanish. So yeah, Tlaxcalans oversaw the fall of their enemies and were soldiers that build Spanish colonial empire (they even fought for Spain to conquer Philippines)" ... Thank you ;) ... watch this, very well explained with FACTS... : ua-cam.com/video/dpqU41vgp3E/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/L2nfTwKQA6s/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/s26k_dTrsuI/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/A3qQAYYDtME/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/LZzNraBbh2k/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/_lYAirsk0tk/v-deo.html Reparations???..

How about grow up and quit looking for evil in life, it's not there.
racism is so over used these days it means nothing, like you keep using that word but i don't think it means what you think it means. AA isn't racist its camp pseudoscience
She wasn’t THAT ruthless because she let Tutmoses live 😎
History not mythology
Actually aliens are real but they were our gods is a fucking myth because why would they give us technology and teach science I mean this os none of their business
As an African American I commend you for being a very open minded Caucasian. So often whenever we discus this noted subject we’re often wrongly accused as - by whites - as being racist towards whites for doing so.
Yeah mate, but these days afrocentrists claim every ancient culture was black, as in West African bantu black, which is just as much pseudo-science bs as AA. Btw, I'm european and almost 60 y-o. As a kid in the 70s I learnt the basics of Ancient Egyptian History in History classes and never my teachers told us ancient Egyptians were white nor showed pictures depicting Egyptians as white, they looked exactly as Egyptians look, brown people from North Africa, except the 25th Kushite dinasty who were sudanese, hence depicted as black africans. Cheers mate. Stay safe.
Lol. He aint say aliens built it cuz Stonehenge is fucking wack. I think that's really why these ppl think that. Just cuz white ppl was making wack ass Stonehenge at the time blk and brown ppl were making extra super awesome shit like like the pyramid, tiwanaku, & the countless amazing hugemungus stoneworks by the Tamils, must mean those ppl didn't make them cuz they are so much better, and the Stonehenge makers would need the assistance of advanced aliens & their tech to come up with something as good.
Atlantis was real. Prob in western Sahara. It's idea was hijacked then sculpted to fit into the racists narrative. With the aliens that are also white, Norske, and tall now.
The richer a country is the bigger normaly their buildings!The Nubians built Pyramids toi but smaller and steeper!
Mankind is one family and none blacks are descends from blacks so until we teach or tell the true story the world won't get peace. We are all speaking transformed ancient Egyptian language Medu Natjahr.
They were advanced but they couldn't stop their city from sinking
Gay marxist woke psuedoscience....that is all history and archeology.
Thank You for educating!!!!!
I would just like to add that Egyptology at large and the way Egyptians are portrayed globally in all forms of media whether for entertainment or for educational purposes is also racist and/or supports the whyte supremacist agenda. There is a concerted effort by “experts” in the field and by modern day Egyptians to deny any connection between ancient Egypt and black Africa. You need look no further than the most recent “scientific” digital recreation of Pharaoh AmenHotep III. What was depicted was a fat whyte possibly “Mediterranean” man. Just a quick google search will easily show you at least half a dozen statues and paintings of what in any other context would be considered a phenotypically black African man. This not a one off, there are tones of paintings of brown skinned men and women with various Continental African/tribal hairstyles. But every time Egyptians are shown on-Screen they are depicted as pink skinned/tanned, or whyte in complexion. You’d be hard pressed to ever see Egyptians depicted (especially without backlash) as what any modern person would consider a black person, despite mountains of evidence that a large portion of the people in almost every dynasty including the elite and the Pharaohs were Black African people.
Hmmm... as an African American woman, I am thankful for this video. This has nothing to do with me, but it's refreshing to see people speak out against these conspiracy theories that completely take away from the beautiful intellect of REAL people. It's insulting, and it can lead people down a very dangerous rabbit hole of lies and self-hatred.
Star Wars has Ancient Aliens roots am I racist for being a Star Wars fan? A long time ago in a galaxy far far away....does that make me racist?
Okay, you're either a troll or... 9... I think that's when they start reading comprehension. You didn't watch the video or you are intentionally misinterpreting what was said. The concept was derived from.racist pseudohistory. Star Wars is a fiction designed, as far as I can tell, to exist in a completely foreign universe. Again are you 9? Just having the words "ancient aliens" in a statement doesn't mean all instances of that mean the same thing. Look at the OED some time and see how many words have multiple definitions, to say nothing of combinations of words that can mean entirely different things based on context. Argot and jargon and cant will just flabbergast you.
Thank you I want to learn ancient egyptian..❤
Im green couldn't qualify for uk disability allowance or a mobility scooter never mind im halfway there got a electric bike😂😂😂😂😂😂
Did ancient aliens invent transformers something in disguise .why are ancient raisins black i herd this on the universe vine
idk theres a ton of episodes of the ancient aliens from historia on the greeks the romans and the nazis, I think they take everyone for idiots not just particular races
I disagree with the notion of Ancient Aliens being racist, because the show very clearly attributes everything to aliens, no matter the place or time. I would agree that certain people of the pre-astronautik community being racist but the show in itself clearly doesn't care about origins. Western civilization, Eastern civilization, Rome, Machu Piccu, antiquity, second world war, everything is aliens.
Ancient Aliens is crap, but it seems the opposite to me. It seems more like a glorification of primitive non-Western cultures as telling the truth in some way when those cultures just had superstitious myths without merit.
The nag hammadi texts which the church denies to this day were found in Egypt but ok keep calling it superstitious myths. These people were actually in harmony with nature and had a purpose, fast food and tik tok is the only purpose modern man has. This is the whyttte man’s way of living lol.
They say the same about Stonehenge how is that racist it's in England
Because 99% of the ancient things they present are from non white cultures. They never go after the ancient Roman’s or Greeks 😂
@@rickybobby5153They do though.
Ancient Aliens did a whole episode on the Vikings and how viking technology may have been extraterrestrial.......wich is really wierd because I thought the Vikings were white but if acient aliens is white supremacy technically you are saying the viking are not white.....wich would make you the racist?
They think the Vikings were the direct descendants of the supreme alien race. So they are “pure” genetically and not from earth. The Atlantis fans also make a point to show Egyptian statues that have sort of European features (they claim the features are European) which proves that it wasn’t the brown Egyptians who built the stuff, it was this supreme race of white looking people.
I dont listen to colonizers opinions and views on ancient africans and their wonders.
In a word: Yes - though not likely in the way most people think. Consider what the entire "alternative" industry - and it is indeed an industry folks - represents. What began with ilk like von Daniken et al to today represent a far-ranging online and via television enterprise has its origin in: _"Hollywood."_ So Hollywood etc. over a period of decades created _"the customer base"_ centered upon the genre which was mostly = "white". White people/cultures were considered to be advanced as people of color were cast as backwards. Moral of the story: proponents of pseudoscience/history are simply pandering to that customer base so as to monetize upon it. Thus just as a fast food restaurant will create a kid's meal and place a toy in it to make it appealing to their customers = so the "ancient astronauts" similarly market their product line via "toys" their customer base will recognize and respond to. The concept of "ancient astronauts" or whatever was built around a genre which was fundamentally racist given when it was created = 1930's onward. 🤨
You miss an important point about Ancient Aliens, Graham Hancock et al. These ideas are not about promoting racism, they are about making money. That is why they end up on Netflix.
Its making Money with promoting rasism
I don’t think Graham is racist, I think he just wants his DMT and mushroom visions to be true. But he’s an outlier, the other guys say so many racist things, I always shrugged it off when I was an Atlantis fan, but now that I’m out of that “cult” I realize how offensive it was. They literally call the ancient Egyptians “loin cloth wearing savages” to say they were too stupid to figure out how to build with stone.
Is this satire??
No.
Extra terresterials can build space faring vehicles travel trillions of miles from other star systems thats super hyper technology, navigate to earth and when they get here all they can do is basically build with stone? Really? Superior beings that cant deal with mining gold on earth its too hard. But showed up in a space ship. Really?
To build a car, you need far more than the knowledge of car construction. You need a metallurgy industry. You need a plastics/petrochemical industry. You need glass manufacturing. You need power etc. If a group with advanced knowledge is marooned on a remote planet, you wouldn't look for advanced machines. You would instead look for advanced techniques applied to very simple materials.
Hi, I just have the most strange dream I ever had. I dreamt with an Egyptian goddess named Isis. I was in a large room decorated with egyptian stuff, large marble columns. Then a beautiful woman with very light brown eyes, those eyes where like honey when the sun reflects on it. She approached to me and kissed me. She said she was goddess Isis. I saw around us some servants, gay men and young women bowed before her. Her dress was filled with silver jewelry, bright silver. Her dress too was silvered colored. She told me a secret I will remember in time. Do you know what this could mean?
“judging by my Twitter feed” - your Twitter feed… 😂 Your entire take here is an exemplar case of the genetic fallacy. True theories can be born in sin. If a theory has a racist origin, nothing follows about its plausibility.
okay but its racist and also wrong.
@@Skyfoogle if you’re not going to address the comment why comment at all?
@@mynameisjefferson3771 because your comment falsely presupposes that his entire argument against ancient aliens is pointing out that its rooted in racism. he demonstrates that the theory is wrong and racist, not wrong because its racist.
Alright well if Africans built that how come they didn't get any other stone structures anywhere on the continent except for that standing thinking is that the Portuguese put it up Portuguese could run their slave trade and Africans could sell their neighbors and fellow countrymen to them to be shipped off to South America or America
Y’all probably knocked them down. That’s what y’all do.
