Fringe History as the Tip of an Iceberg of Resentment and Anger

12/24/2015

34 Comments

 
Editor’s note: There will be no blog post tomorrow. I’ll be taking the day off to celebrate Christmas.
 
It can be easy to look at crazy claims on the History Channel, laugh at them, and dismiss them outright as too stupid to be believed. But it’s important to remember that a lot of people accept what they see on TV as true. I learned yesterday that my brother’s barber is one of them. He’s an older Italian-American man who is curious about history and science but not particularly well versed in it. He asked my brother if he had seen History’s Hunting Hitler and proceeded to give a lengthy review of how the program, which alleges that Hitler escaped to South America after World War II, had changed his view of the war. “They showed so much I never knew happened,” he said. Rejecting gentle suggestions that the program may not actually be true, he insisted that the TV would never intentionally show programs that weren’t founded on facts.
It’s a reminder that TV has a powerful influence in an era where emotion, belief, and the appearance of truth are more important than facts. Indeed, studies have found that people with strong emotional beliefs actually double down on those beliefs when confronted with facts. Truth, it seems, makes belief in falsehoods stronger to avoid cognitive dissonance. The Donald Trump phenomenon, and what one expert called its “strategic” use of misinformation to appeal to its supporters’ basest instincts, is the same thing on a bigger stage. Indeed, it’s probably no coincidence that the biggest purveyor of lies as emotional truths used to be a reality TV star.
 
Ever since Donald Trump became the GOP frontrunner, I’ve noticed that I stopped receiving the usual weekly set of complaints from readers who are outraged that I would dare suggest that fringe history claims have a racist or ethnocentric component. Now that we have an unapologetically xenophobic candidate who draws major support from white supremacists and racists, it seems that it is no longer either outrageous or upsetting to suggest that TV programs and books that cater to the same audience as Trump also contain sub rosa messages of racism. The media messages we see in programs like Ancient Aliens and America Unearthed catered to this audience before it was popular to do so, and in many ways the stories we heard on cable TV were the canary in the coal mine presaging the trends that took some time erupt into the mainstream.
 
It reminds me a bit of when I published The Cult of Aliens Gods back in 2005. At the time, I made mention of Jacques Barzun’s claim, from the year 2000, that Western civilization had entered into decadence and decline. In 2005 and 2006, this outraged reviewers and readers to no end, and I received more complaints about even an indirect suggestion that the United States was a declining power than any other material in the book. I don’t get those complaints anymore; the idea is now such a truism that readers pass over it without remark.
 
Perhaps it is increasingly obvious that pseudo-history programs, in appealing to the angry old white man demographic, share certain assumptions and perspectives with angry old white men’s politics. This is especially interesting given that the people who make pseudo-history claims on TV are, by and large, political liberals. Nevertheless, they find themselves enmeshed in narratives of white nationalism that they cannot quite escape, despite their best efforts, because they have adopted and adapted preexisting narratives that are closely tied to Victorian, Edwardian, and Interwar racism, colonialism, and imperialism. The story becomes the tail that wags the dog, existing almost beyond the teller.
 
On the other hand, sometimes you just end up in the dark heart of the Internet’s racist conspiracy fringe without even trying. Yesterday I linked to a blog post from 2012 that displayed a photograph of a supposed cuneiform “cellphone” from thousands of years ago. The author of that post found mine and became outraged that I had referred in the same post to the country of Israel, which he does not recognize on account of extreme anti-Zionist belief. He and his followers bombarded me on Twitter with anti-Zionist propaganda, which gradually merged into Nazi references and 9/11 anti-Semitic conspiracy theories about how the Jews faked the whole thing for the benefit of Israel. It was just another reminder that goofball claims about history are only the tip of the iceberg, the visible part of a vast and monstrously raging id of racism, sexism, anti-Semitism, xenophobia, homophobia, and every other expression of uncertainty, anger, and fear that threaten to overrun society.

Angry, ignorant, hairless chimps. We're spiraling down into hell while idiots furiously squabble over trivialities, and authoritarian propaganda is broadcast 24/7. Voices of reason are rare and fragile.

God bless you and keep you, Mr Colavito.

I disagree.

I don't think we're spiraling anywhere. I think it's pretty much always been this way, with voices of reason being rare and relatively fragile. We've always squabbled over trivialities, and there's always been authoritarian propaganda flung at the masses as often and constantly as remotely possible.

I hope you have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, Jason. I agree with you about the Trump. He seems to be building his support my appealing to the worst instincts of a poorly informed and fearful electorate. He makes racist, insulting remarks about various groups of people and individuals and when challenged simply either
re-insults the groups or individuals or ignores them, all while his supports cheer him on. Sad commentary on the state of politics in this country when someone like him is considered a "serious" contender for the most powerful position in the country.

Fringe wouldn't exist if it didn't have its entertainment value - it relies on this sole ingredient for its entire existence.

You may have heightened emotional beliefs if your rationalist faculties are aware.

"...the visible part of a vast and monstrously raging id..."

Following the original theory of the id, the raging only happens when it's being suppressed in a tortured dungeon for too long. Some have hinted our very own culture would be such a dungeon and civilization would only be possible through sufficient collective repression of primitive urges. But it's also possible (and has been argued by too many to name) that we are just as well repressing many truths while only collectively, culturally selecting a few as being reasonable and comfortable enough to live with. And this is about the type of truths not living in laboratories or math books: cultural analysis, values, morality, priorities, justice, principles and so on.

Bottom line is that we can never be sure we hold "the truth" in some general sense and for example "Trump people" do not. Actually one can catch Trump saying possible, reasonable enough truths which the establishment does not generally touch: the bloody price of aggressive invasions and sanctions in the Middle East and the responsibility of Western nations for much what's happening now. Or how G.W. Bush has direct responsibility for 9/11 by dismissing direct, big warnings for very concrete plans of Bin Laden inside the US during his first year. Or manipulation of evidence in front of the UN. At least criminal negligence in any other context but the current class of politicians do not touch it with a stick, no justice is being applied. It's hard to evaluate Trump in such a political culture of increasing dishonesty and repression.

Merry Christmastime nevertheless. :-)

So glad you called it a theory because psychology is just as cranky as Fingerprints of the Gods, Chariot of the Gods, and the Loch Ness Monster.

The fringe presence is strong in psychology.
Especially today, as most real research into this is seen as morally objectable by the masses.

For some (depressing) reality on how psycho analysis shaped the needs of the people to match the offers of the manufacturers and more, see the BBC docu called "The Century of the Self"

You don't have to be of a certain race or political slant to fall for fringe history claims. You just have to be an idiot, and they cross over quite well.

No, this is true. But generally speaking, what TYPE of fringe history claims idiots fall for do tend to align either to their racial identity, their political identity, or both. And I use the term "racial identity" not to refer to actual characteristics but rather to their personal idea of who and what they are racially. As with gender identity, that can be fairly fluid for some people and very rigid for others.

Gender identity is indeterminate for the Papacy.

i don't agree that this is necessarily fringe except as viewed from within academia. myth and story is standard for the majority, especially in the big religions. living a rational life is a recent innovation and still something of a minority pursuit, globally at least. country by country it may differ - zionist conspiracies have more traction in some part of the world than others. for the usa it might be fringe, but saudi arabian school books ? ukrainian nationalists ? all these are protected by the supposedly rational west and our technology.

if the usa is a declining power, then what happens to the rationality that it brings to the world ? are the atheistic chinese going to take up the slack, or will the spread of superstition increase ? will the other huge population centre of india balance chinese atheism with it's own magical beliefs ? How close are hindutva to all that we get from theosophy ? india is going to be a rich vein for occult ideas for a long time to come

actually the west seems to be doing it's best to return parts of the world to the dark ages whilst simultaneously trying to spread modern rational attitudes

rather than being the tip of the iceberg it's the main block, and just because the majority chip in taxes to the education system doesn't mean they go along with it's canonical ideas.
ok the academia of advanced countries is a big beast, but it seems questionable to me whether it's the biggest or represents the mainstream.

"Ahmedabad, Gujarat - You cannot blame Bhavana Vaja, 12, for telling you that the first aeroplane was invented during the mythical Dvapara Yuga, when the Hindu God Ram flew from Sri Lanka to Ayodhya in India with his wife Sita and brother Laxman in a Pushpaka Vimana - a swan­-shaped chariot of flowers.

By claiming that they familiarise students with India's ancient heritage, some books printed by the education department of western Gujarat state teach children that aeroplanes existed in India since Lord Ram's era. And that is just a sample of how religious content is included in science, history, environment, and mathematics books.

"Every week we are asked to do projects in our science and social studies classes. We refer to these books then," says Saras Solanki, age 9."

""Gujarat is an experimental ground," said Gaurang Jani, a professor of sociology at Gujarat University. "The BJP and the RSS [Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh] will test their methods in the state and if found successful, will replicate it throughout the country," he told Al Jazeera."

"History as projected by Hindutva ideologues, which is being introduced to children through textbooks and is being thrust upon research institutes, precludes an open discussion of evidence and interpretation. Nor does it bear any trace of the new methods of historical analyses now being used in centres of historical research. Such history is dismissed by the Hindutva ideologues as Western, imperialist, Marxist, or whatever, but they are themselves unaware of what these labels mean or the nature of these readings. There is no recognition of the technical training required of historians and archaeologists or of the foundations of social science essential to historical explanation. Engineers, computer experts, journalists-turned-politicians, foreign journa lists posing as scholars of Indology, and what have you, assume infallibility, and pronounce on archaeology and history. And the media accord them the status.

The article by Witzel and Farmer is a serious critique of the claims that have been made by Rajaram and Jha about the Aryan identity of the Indus civilisation and the decipherment of the Harappan script. The critique was first put out on the Internet but those who have access to the Internet in India are still a limited few. It is important for this article to be published, for it is a salutary lesson for the media to be more cautious in unfamiliar areas and not rush to publicise anything that sounds se nsational. It is also necessary that the debate be made accessible to the reading public so that people are not repeatedly taken for a ride. It shows up the defective library resources in India that would need to be radically improved if research in earl y Indian history is to be made more effective. But above all, the article demonstrates the lengths to which historical sources can be manipulated by those supporting the claims of Hindutva ideology."

"The Hindutva Rewriting of Textbooks in India.
While many of India’s textbooks have been of poor quality and contained factually incorrect information or negative stereotypes, the systematic rewriting of history is a critical component of Hindu nationalist ideology. For many decades, the grassroots organizations and educational institutions run by the RSS—the Saraswati Shishu Mandirs and Vidya Bharati primary and secondary schools—have sought to spread a Hindu-centric version of Indian history. For example, “some books for elementary school students portrayed all communities other than the Hindus as foreigners in India…These books, in the name of instilling patriotism and valor among Indians, spread falsehoods, treat mythological religious figures like actual historical figures and make absurd claims such as that the struggle for India’s freedom became a ‘religious war’ against Muslims.”9 The United States Department of State’s International Religious Freedom reports of 2002, 2003, and 2004 describe the Sangh efforts to revise curriculum in India as threats to religious freedom.10

The BJP government in Gujarat was one of the first to revise its textbooks with a decidedly Hindu nationalist frame.

History textbooks in Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh regularly conflate myth and historical fact. The Gujarat State fifth grade social studies textbook has nine stories on mythology masquerading as history.14

The Hindutva movement also has historic links to Italian and German forms of fascism from the 1920s and 1930s, and another form of textbook revision can be seen in its treatment of fascism.15 Prashant, an NGO based in Ahme

that was a long one. sorry if that's too long probably best to just post links.
anyway, not only is there growing hindu obscurantism and mythologising, but people like Alexandr Dugin are busy incubating a Russian or Eurasian anthropology, which will probably require a corresponding archaeology - ie bullshit. Dunno how successful he is in that, western sources don't cover it that much.

consider how much bending of history and archaeology there must be around africa, the rest of asia, the island nations of the world, south america etc etc...

... i mean let's say we drew a graph of people who believed graham hancock, or one of his beliefs - maybe the pyramid alignment theory. would that yield a normal distribution curve - with academics on the thin end at the right next to a good chunk of the public like yourselves, and a range of probably, maybe, definitely spread out along the axis ? the mainstream would be the big bulge in the middle.

When you debase your currency you destroy a society and people start to welcome alternative theories because they can't trust the elites anymore. It all comes down to honesty , integrity, and virtue. When govt and the elites fail the people they look for other religions do to speak. And it always comes back to debasing the most important mechanism of society, the currency.

I'm faily new to the whole crackpot TV and crackpot author arena, but it sinks in pretty quick.

I understand that the Hunting Hitler stuff has no choice but to stick to the reality show format, otherwise it wouldn't be on History Channel. But what is fringe about guys who (supposedly) spent their supposed CIA and military careers "hunting high value targets across the globe" and referencing FBI documents?

What have you caught them doing wrong in their supposed research, aside from attempting to present it with a reality TV spin?

Before I waste disposable time with research trying to jump in and unravel their theories, I figured I'd ask, since there didn't seem to be a build-up to any sort of holocaust denial or sympathy toward them, and seemingly portrayed them as war criminals and all that jazz. I mean.. is it common knowledge that these guys are frauds or have a racist agenda?

I get that a lot of what was "revealed" from the blacked out documents were eye-witness testimony. Does the FBI/CIA typically ignore eye-witness testimony to rule out the bullshit from the actual "breadcrumb" when doing their detective work on investigating anything or does that make them little Scott Wolters and Childresses?

Also, there are so many crackpots on Youtube these days. There are people out there who think the world went through a time warp to an alternate dimension because they remember Bearenstain Bears being "Bearenstein", and their "proof" is when they find a copy of the book with the proper title "Bearenstein".

Then there's the guy who thinks there's a hologram in front of the moon, or the "earthquake predictors", guys who film "fake planes" because now ANYONE can gather "evidence" by taking a picture of a plane and asserting "they" forgot to turn on their flashing light for a frame during the "hologram" in the sky leaving contrails.

I cannot believe these people have a following or that they believe their own ravings. At least these History Channel guys are kinda like Trump, in the sense that they are surely there as caricatured fixtures for those they are associated with to not be taken seriously, and at the same time expose the stragglers who eat that stuff up as the pod people they are.

You can easily access the now public FBI records concerning doubts of Hitler's demise, but you have to put them in context. At the time they were compiled, Stalin was actively misleading the other Allies in regard to what the Soviet agents found at the scene, and outwardly claimed Hitler was not dead. It was decades later that they finally disclosed that Hitler's dental records were matched to a partially burned jawbone found outside the bunker by the Soviets, which had settled the matter for them. So although FBI files exist questioning Hitler's death, that certainly doesn't mean that's the FBI official position on the matter; then or now.

The show is also riddled with confirmation bias. They completely ignore and discredit actual witness testimony within the bunker, yet they cling to hearsay and pure speculation as they venture through South America implying any German or Nazi connection they actually do find necessarily leads to Hitler.

Certainly Nazi war criminals escaped to South America. Some were caught while living there or exposed with concrete evidence set forth after their death. You just don't have that sort of damning evidence for Hitler. Only speculation and innuendo... which should actually be the proper name for The History Channel. The Speculation and Innuendo Channel, ignoring the best evidence for future generations.
