Saw this video being recommended from the dino autist, which while not over all abysmal, just has to shove in random modern leftie takes on ancient history. And is full of dated meme attempts at jokes.
First there's the mention of the ancient aliens quacks. For some reason, there are people that took parts of the insane idea that literally every major historical event that has ever happened was set up by or completely constructed by aliens, and made it a race thing. Says something about how the show 'focuses mainly' on how those damn dirty brown people couldn't have built temples or anything advanced, but looking any deeper into this claim shows that the hosts are just whackjobs that say anything and everything, up into the modern day were the responsibility of extraterrestrials. I don't get where the people who claim it's an evil nazi sentiment think they're going with that.
Moving on, we have multiple references to human animal idols, which of course he uses to say ancient fursonas, not that they could have any other symbolic meaning.
And then the "gay caveman" story, which he uses to project the hypothesis that ancient cultures all somehow believed in the postmodern ideologies of "third genders" , nonbinary, and even being somehow accepting of transgenderism. He uses the fact that some people were buried in a way unbefitting of traditional male or female burials. Not that this could have just been to micro differences between separate cultures, or just due to mistakes in burial, or to people just having different roles in society, not strictly related to sex. This revisionism is getting to a ridiculous level. It's funny how a lot of other things can be debatable but the endless expansion of the gender wars nonsense only has one valid side.
A few other things like this happen in the video, and on top of that there's several actually interesting topics he barely covers just to skip over to more meme garbage.
Trey said he took a four month hiatus and this was supposed to be his major return video. If this is supposed to be impressive, I guess there's a reason I haven't paid attention to his channel in a long time. The thing's 50 minutes but feels like there's maybe a good five of okay commentary.
