That one guy on SA immediately pegging it as Osama Bin Laden's work even before the towers fell is insane. The "WATCH BUSH START A FUCKING WAR" comment like three replies below it is up there, too.

Granted, Bin Laden wasn't entirely unknown to the American public due to his attacks on American targets in Sudan in the 90s.

Wasn't he also implicated in the World Trade Tower bombing in the 90s as well?

While Yousef was an Islamic extremist, his involvement with al-Qaeda is debated.

My professor probably put it best went lecturing on NAGPRA that is is one part wanting to control the narrative of 'We were always here' and one part Natives unable to handle alternative viewpoints.

There are quite a few natives that deny that the Bering landbridge crossing happened or any ice age arrival happened at all and claimed they always existed here.

Unfortunately there are many Native Americans who are interested in the deep history of their people and their origins and want that history uncovered, but there are just too many grifters, activists, and assholes eager to abuse NAGPRA to prevent any real discovery.

It's a trope I like to call the disapproving indian trope. If there is an event or some kind of project and most of the tribe approves of it but one guy doesn't the media will focus on just that one native guy and claim he speaks for the rest of the tribe,

He's become a lot more active recently which surprised me. His last video before this one was 2 months ago, and then he had another one 5 months before that

Pax Tube made a video about the T R V E history behind the recent slav boogaloo

It's kinda funny how he and his fans pretend that he is talking about some secret history when you can find most of the information on other pophistory channels like the AlternateHistoryHub.
He also once again manages to leave out a lot of context despite making a 30 minutes video. Highlights:

1. Acts like the verbal agreement that NATO won't expand east was a treaty set in stone that was broken by le evil NATO.
2. Doesn't mention that the 1999 bombing of "Yugoslavia" (which only consisted of Serbia, Monenegro and Kosovo) wasn't supported by NATO as a whole.
3. Completly leaves out how Poland and the other eastern european countries were basically begging to join NATO.
4. Cries about the US supporting the Chechens when Russia is also supporting similiar organisations around the globe, which is, like the support in Ukraine, just the typical super power slapfighting.

Then there is the his usual and talk how Ukraine is totally a NATO country that I couldn't care less for.

and in the case of Pre-Islamic civilizations it is outright suicidal to hand them over to the modern governments of those regions when iconoclasm is considered a major tenant of their religious law.

Never ceases to amaze how these types make mockery of their own faith. Like I don't think anyone is gonna abandon Allah to start worshipping some several thousand year old god or goddess, Achmed. Is smashing that several thousand year old piece of shaped clay really necessary? Or maybe they would, and its absolutely necessary. Islam isn't much of a religion to begin with.

IDK, The War/Death God Nergal (ISIS blew up a museum full of artifacts from his temple/made a video where they proudly smashed his statutes) sounds fucking badass/I could see why they'd be concerned he might outshine Allah.

Nergal literally became King of Hell by being really good in bed. He once had a demon drag an Ancient King to Hell to scold him for being corrupt/stealing tax money from the treasury, He treated his wife and employees (demons) with respect. Also he wielded a bunch of sweet giant magical sentient swords.

One of the core tenets of Islam is that any and all other religions are false. Misguided at best, outright demonic at worst. The only religious group that Muslims really respected at all throughout history were Christians and that was more viewing them as wayward and misguided rather than evil, still murdered them en masse if they didn't convert though. Every other religion must be erased or else their influences will undermine Mohammed's manifest destiny of Islam ruling the world.

Nowadays jihad is the only pillar of Islam still widely observed.

I do believe that said assertion goes so far to claim that the entire world was Muslim once and thus destroying the evidence of “infidel” civilizations is vital to preserve the illusion and keep the faithful from apostasy, like those artifacts are cognitohazards made by the Chaos Gods

It does but I'm not nearly well read enough on Islamic doctrine or history to point you to when exactly that teaching gained prominence.

Even today they sperg out about iconoclasm when it comes to 'reappropriating' museums. There was this church in Trebizond I believe that had been a museum sincer Ataturk was in charge that the government converted back into a mosque (Around the same time the Hagia Sophia was given mosque status and Islamic worship was allowed in the building again). The Christian murals that had been exposed are not covered in drapes and it is no longer a museum anymore, so you can't admire medieval Greek art.

I understand that all churches called the Hagia Sophia (there are a lot called that in Turkey) were turned into Mosques by Erdogan. See for example the Hagia Sophia in Iznik (what was Nicea) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagia_Sophia,_İznik

The Cult of Mithras wasn't a rival religion though. It was a mystery cult that operated exclusively within the military and former military. Plenty of universal mass religious movements existed at the time, but Mithras ain't one of them.

 

[VisaMallgoth]

They're more like cousin cults rather than rivals - one is esoteric (select few) and the other is exoteric (for the masses), yet they're mostly similar when you get down to it. Safe to say the Catholic Church absorbed what was left of the cult once it became the official state religion. Now there was no need for it in the military since you could just replace Mithras with Jesus (same dying-resurrecting god/bringer of the new age/similar rituals, etc.), sprinkle some Augustinian just war theory, and you're good to go, as if nothing changed. I view the relationship more like how the Mormons appropriated Freemason rituals into their religion, yet Smith was a part of the Anti-Masonic movement. Mormonism, like Christianity, is for the masses, and Freemasonry, a lot like Mithraism, is a mystery school cult.
