Graham Hancock is a fraud who pushes a baseless conspiracy theory about an ancient civilization that spanned the globe that was destroyed before the last Ice Age. He's successfully siphoned money away from serious archeological work with his specious bullshit, and right now he's doing a series called Ancient Apocalypse where he pushes this hypothesis on Netflix. Looks like it's going into Season 2 and Keanu Reeves appears in it.
I used to love this kind of conspiracy stuff as a kid. It was like X Files. Then I learned people took it for real ๐ and it did actual harm to real academic work
There is so much anti science nonsense out there right now, that stuff like this isn't funny anymore. It's sad and, more importantly, dangerous.
