Awful Archaeology Ep. 8: Nebraska Man from Miniminuteman - Reaction

I just imagine a comic book with a caveman with overalls with a stick of wheat sticking through his teeth.

I was just rewatching your other aweful aercheology yesterday.

If you want to learn about Tartaria I highly recommend checking out the videos by The Lore Lodge. They're long, but it's necessary to really get into and go over all of the insane bs that is Tartaria. Aidan also just does a really good job of ripping the whole thing from stem to stern.

Since you've been watching Miniminuteman pretty regularly, I recommend you give his mutli-part series on Filip Zieba. There's two episodes and a third reactionary episode he made, and each is over an hour long! I'd imagine splitting each episode into thirds could make for QUITE a lot of fun content since he packs so much into each episode!

And we're still awaiting what will be an inevitably long episode on Atlantis; chop chop debunker boy!

Wasn't the Bone Wars between Marsh and Cope?

look what whales did

I love that you're doing miniminuteman and always post right when I'm thinking about when you'll post the next one.

How you explained pseudoscience, reminds me of trying to talk sense to the weather control conspiracy theorists.

For example they tell me about military aircraft seeding the sky with aluminum particles, and I explain that's ab anti-missile countermeasure called Chaff that is sometimes deployed during training exercises.

Instead of changing their conclusions, they say the military is seeding the sky with Chaff.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but we're currently still IN an ice age (the Quarternary Glaciation). We're in an interglacial period. They happen periodically. Unless we wreck our planet completely with man-made global warming, that ice is coming back. Not anytime soon even on a planetary scale, obviously.

My guy. Human zoos were a thing until the middle of the 20th century. Until 43, Canada just went "Oh look, that's quintuplets. Ain't that weird? Let's put 'em in a ZOO." Not a made-up thing. Actual thing. The 58 World's Fair in Brussels had an exhibit of a "Congolese village". Now if you're thinking "Hm... why have I heard Belgium and Congo mentioned together before...", yeah. Yeah, you have. The reason why nobody should feel sorry for them for getting steamrolled by Germany twice.

The thing that drives me up a wall, is that there are actual teachers out there, teaching kids that earth is only 6000 years old and that dinosaurs never lived, crap like that, i mean we had civilizations flourishing for longer then that timeframe, not to mention it takes a very, very long time for oil to be formed thru time and pressure. Teachers like that need to be fired immediatly.

well, seems like the next episode by miniminuteman will be utterly punishing...probably an excuse to get plastered completely 🤣

Well, i'm just a geology student so I'm not like an expert, but, does there have to be a reason for Ice age ending?
"Ice ages" happen all the times, because over thousands of years, some events happen that change earth's global temperature. The oscillation of earth center of rotation, the flip of the magnetic poles, etc.
These all impact the temperature. I mean heck, back in the 60's the global temperature was falling, and now it's rising. (Regardless of if man-made global warming is a thing)

And since these things are asymchronous, i figured for the Big Bad Ice age, these things just happened to align for a bit? But i don't know.

we wiil go to mars i hope

I think one of the funniest videos Milo has is the one where he and a friend make a satirical conspiracy theory video on the Bass Pro Pyramid. It's not just the topic that's so funny, or even the content of the theory, though. They show their 'research' stage, where they were coming up with ideas for what the conspiracy would be, and what's so funny to me is that they're using the scientific process to do it. Instead of saying 'Here is what we want the conspiracy to be' and then looking for numbers to cherry pick, they're looking through statistics and jumping to wild conclusions of what those statistics mean. There's a point in the video where they try to look up just how much water is in the tanks in the Bass Pro Pyramid, and they can't actually find a specific amount...despite having very precise measurements for most other aspects of the pyramid, all they can get about the water is 'over x amount' or 'nearly y amount'. And in absolute glee they realize that they can now claim that this information being absent is proof that its being deliberately hidden, and if that's not conspiracy fodder then what is? The joy on their faces as they mimic the 'They don't want you to know, this information is being kept from us!' rhetoric is so adorable and funny to me. They're having so much fun finding evidence and coming to deliberately wrong conclusions, and it's so amusing how they're so science minded that they can't even conspiracy correctly...can't even say 'I think x, let me find evidence'. Even when trying to create deliberately unscientific ideas, Milo uses scientific methods.

Hope you go on to watch more of his stuff outside the Awful Archaeology series! There's certainly plenty of content to react to.

If you wanna see a video about the bone wars, i'd recommend the Adeptus Ridiculous chanels video about it.(If you not seen it already)

To answer your question, Egypt built the pyramids with Hebrew slave labor. Meaning Africa was so civilized they had slave labor before Europe did
(Sorry, people are always forgetting that little part of history)

Oh if you haven't already you so need to watch the miniminuteman series debunking graham Hancock's awful Netflix show ancient apocalypse

New sub! Good reaction 😊

Man next episode is gonna be googledebunkers

Hey you should react to Season 4 of Overlord. Phillip... He's....a Genius 😏🤪😵‍💫

There is this Young Earth Creationist who's obsessed with Nebraska man.
His Name is Kent Hovind.
He's got some history.

Atlantis drives me googledebunkers.

Hell yeah the one reaction i was waiting for!!)
