Anyone who says the Ancient Aliens show isn't harmful: making racist conspiracy theories mainstream+acceptable on TV after years and years of building an audience (I bet loads of QA*on folks started with Ancient Aliens) now directly impacts our survival https://twitter.com/adamgoldmanNYT/status/1346252511305478144
Ancient Aliens is a gateway drug to a bat$hit crazy world of conspiracies. It's not funny. We've been shouting about this for years. AA+ G*mergate + Youtube blackhole+ others= everything you're seeing now
Am I saying that watching AA= our deaths? Um no. I'm saying that years and years of eroding the importance of real experts and science and having utter bollockssucking parody hosts leads to far, far worse.
