Just a reminder that Chariots of the Gods was rejected by publishers until one editor took on the job of extensively rewriting it.

And that editor was Wilhelm Utermann, formerly editor of… Völkischer Beobachter, the official newspaper of the Nazi Party. Managing to spread lies that people of colour never achieved anything (“it was aliens!”) even decades after his beloved Führer blew his brains out in the bunker.

Rest In Piss you slimy grifter

I have fond memories of staying up late with my mom watching Ancient Aliens and roasting the fuck outta this guy. The memories are good, the man was not. Rest in piss. 🦀

Was he also the guy who claimed that Ashkenazi Jews aren’t actually Jewish but are a Turkic people from the Caucasus, or was that another grifter?
