Description
I have been asked to elaborate on my critique of the historical relativism that fermented the enchantment-reaction against the totalitarian enlightenment of the early industrialised world. The ideological peaks of which we where introduced to in our short story about the mountain of truth.   Graham Hancock probably the most popular figure in the quest to find a forgotten prehistory has a new Netflix series out. He is neither in my opinion a conscious crypto-fascist nor an unconscious useful idiot, I like him, but many of his fans and fellow travellers are. They are part of that same mesmerizing dance that moved to the Theosophic tunes which became Anthroposophy and finally co-opted in to Ariosophy, to name only one of the many veins of the Volkskörper. Many of the topics popularised by Hancock are far to interesting to allow that to happen again. And personally I feel his historical idealism is no real threat to the bourgeoisie reading of history. It would be a shame if the tradition that is the critique of our modern hegemonic historical world view, where to loose its political overtones and become merely a psychedelic individualist search for truth.   So lets see if we can find something more interesting then that mesmerising notion of a Class Society of lost ancient high technology. Because to hell with a federation of kings if that is what the A word stands for.
