Isn't it kinda racist when Ancient Aliens is all "this ancient African/Pre-Columbian/Chinese civilization's art was clearly influenced by actual alien visitors they met" like it's just assumed these people weren't capable of creating fantasy/folklore they knew wasn't "real"?
WE FOUND A WEIRD LOOKING STATUE FROM PREHISTORIC JAPAN THAT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE A REAL PERSON SO THEY MUST HAVE MET WEIRD LOOKING ALIENS nah what if that guy just imagined something cool and made it? what if ppl in ancient Japan were capable of imagining things not found in nature?
All I'm saying is it doesn't seem like people are out here asking what flew down from the stars and inspired the ancient Greeks to start writing stories about centaurs and minotaurs and shit.
After consideration I'm open to the idea that Ancient Aliens just thinks everyone born before 1900 was a helpless idiot and humanity as a whole would still be shitting in holes and eating rocks if not for alien intervention.
