This is a fallacious argument.
2 specific events is far from “everything”. That is bias.
But we are all bias in one way or another.
Do i seem like a “mainstream” sources guy to you? hahahha😂
I try to look at everything. but mostly i try to discern bandwagonism. when you can discern the different “cant be wrong” ideologies, you can discern where they will get things wrong. not always, but it works pretty well.
The latest bandwagonism group is the “history is a lie” bandwagon. Of course history is filled with lies. But this one has that particular millennial false conclusion tendency. Where it blames the wrong group or cause, because of a “hero” identity, and finds surface level solutions, rather than understanding the overall, overarching pattern of mans flaws, the inevitable fallacies of historical pendulum swings, and that everyone seeks the Ring of Power.
i try to read sources where they can be found. or copies of sources (i.e Manetho copied by others), but i also read myth legends. (sumerian stuff) and look for patterns.
but i tend to favor the Hebrew accounts and the Jewish writings.
Great. That is what I am talking about, there is enough history that is a lie that more and more of us are becoming aware of at least to where we are now taking personal responsibility to do our own research, think on our own, and be our own archeologists. This is what is thrilling and exciting to me. Am I claiming all history is a lie, far from it, but just saying that when quick to label, well maybe you should get to know me better before throwing out all of your judgements. I am not representing any particular school of thought or new agenda, merely sharing some of my personal observations and travel photos and would like to do so without any aggressive critiques, just saying. At any rate, what a fascinating discussion this is turning out to be, and thanks for sharing some of your methods. Have a great night.
