Academics claim Netflix's Ancient Apocalypse is dangerous - Why? People might believe other "crazy ideas" like election fraud
Ancient Apocalypse is the most dangerous show on Netflix


A show with a truly preposterous theory is one of the streaming giant’s biggest hits – and it seems to exist solely for conspiracy theorists. Why has this been allowed?

...

That’s the danger of a show like this. It whispers to the conspiracy theorist in all of us. And Hancock is such a compelling host that he’s bound to create a few more in his wake. Believing that ultra-intelligent creatures helped to build the pyramids is one thing, but where does it end? Believing that election fraud is real? Believing 9/11 was an inside job? Worse? If you were feeling particularly mean-spirited, you could suggest that Netflix knows this, and has gone out of its way to court the conspiracy theorists.

But, hey, not all conspiracy theories are bad. If you don’t like Hancock’s story about the super-intelligent advanced civilisation being wiped off the face of the planet, here’s another that might explain how Netflix gave the greenlight to Ancient Apocalypse: the platform’s senior manager of unscripted originals happens to be Hancock’s son. Honestly, what are the chances?

Hancock was way too late to make me a conspiracy theorist. I was already there before discovering him.

"Science" that is afraid of opposing theories is not science, but dogma.

BTW, I believe Hancock (and many others) are right in their assumption that human civilization is considerably older than the mainstream allows.
More deplorable all the time.

I watched the series.

Seemed well researched and documented. And he presented ideas, he didn't insist he was right. Calling for new evidence to be considered as it applies to current thought is how you move forward.

I was both amazed and ecstatic that this got released on Netflix. And if academia is afraid of things like this spreading to other areas then you have you answer. They have been lying. If they were telling the truth it would stand on its own and not have to be sold to people.

I thought the series was very good. The hypothesis he put forth made a lot more sense then the current accepted narrative. I am the type of person who believes that the current narrative is nonsense unless it coherently includes explanations for all the "forbidden archaeological finds" out there.

I think the world as a whole would be a lot better if people spent more time reading independent media, listening to independent voices, and ignoring the nonsense drivel coming out of universities and government organizations.

The most accurate covid info was from independent doctors who were ridiculed and censored heavily. The most accurate political commentary for a long time has been done by people who are canceled and shamed constantly. The best comedy has been done by people the MSM wants banned. Universities are basically just a joke across the board. Their credibility is gone and I look to them for nothing of value now.

Oh - don't get me started, pleeeeeease let there be a special place in hell for these c*#~@s.

On the other hand this is a prime example where anyone of average intelligence and little education can clearly see beyond doubt that primitives never built all that stuff - and further more that the entire Archaeological establishment is completely and utterly wrong, so fucking wrong that it's not remotely possible to be that wrong or that fucking stupid - so in fact they must be all cowered into saying nothing and complete sellouts.

Re: Academics claim Netflix's Ancient Apocalypse is dangerous - Why? People might believe other "crazy ideas" like election fraud
Loved this show, but definitely think he was reaching in a few episodes.

For example, the snake mound one. Lasted for 9k years? Really? most stuff gets buried in that time, mishappen, and what not.

But for the most part, one has to consider the sharing of technology by those ancient ones, such as Quatzcotl. Sounds like something totally out of the bible before the flood. Fallen angels share technology with humanity setting up the first civilization, than in a second round, unknown individuals arrive to the shores to share knowledge again. The only thing they don't share is their origin or where they go thereby keeping that knowledge with them.

There's likely someone out there with this knowledge right now.

They also promise they'll be back again. If they were sowing civilization again like they did the first round, than when the Spaniards landed on their shores, they were exactly right. They likely envisioned, they'd sow civilization everywhere and may the most dominant win.

It could be all BS, but another way to view it is the whole reason this could be considered controversial is because much of it is substantiating the Bible, and the pre-flood stories.

One idea that came to me after watching it, was in Genesis, God cursed the ground to make it harder for mankind to sow on the earth. It was sparse. Could that have been when the iceage was formed. Less water, more sparseness.

Than after the flood, the water was released from the stored water in glacial ice, more abundance. He promised than that it wouldn't be so hard anymore to survive.

I was thinking that one episode where they showed water flowing from Montana through to Washington towards the ocean, that much of the evidence of the pre-flood civilization he is looking for likely lies buried in the ocean floor.

If anything these episodes showed to me how powerful and truly terrifying God truly is. (God-fearing) That he can literally use the very planet and reality to set things straight. Which makes the second round, which we are about to enter... all the more terrifying. I found it interesting there was so much snake imagery in those old ruins, and how Quatzacotl is called the Feathered Serpent... sounds like something totally out of the Bible, about the woman vs the serpent.

LOL. Hancock was constantly delivering well worded passive aggressive blows to mainstream archaelogy. Loved every minute of it. Was a bit surprised they allowed this on netflix in the era of woke totalitarianism.

He was also assassinated like Jeffrey was. They threw him off his boat and then acted like he drowned.

What Hancock has been able to do over the past 25years is remarkable. He's stood up to all these fool despite endless ridicule and now finds himself one of the most popular ancient theorists of his time.

It's likely as the decades roll on he'll look smarter and smarter.

Funny that this topic should come up today as I just got done watching the series. I thought it was very good, but as others have pointed out, he reached in a few spots.

There was even more evidence that could have been brought into his arguments, such as the fact that the wear at the bottom of the sphinx is probably from water, and the obvious fact that the Incas built their civilization over a much older one.
