This rhetoric is harmful and we should be holding people accountable for their actions. We cannot turn a blind eye as turning a blind eye doesn't allow us to have these hard but honest conversations. We need to provide people with education, to inspire people to make better choices on who they support and hope people can change in the rhetoric they are using on their platforms through re-education. We promise to our audience to always be forthcoming, truthful and honest with information - even when it's difficult. We will always choose to stand on the right side of history and we will always stand for what is just and right.At this point in time our images and faces are still being used to support this rhetoric in which we did not consent to or stand for."The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears.

  Styx and Bones SLAMS The Secrets of Greek Mysticism by George Lizos and "Influencers" 12.01.2026 1t 26min

  Our critical review of The Secrets of Greek Mysticism by George Lizos, and why this book is so problematic in its ideologies, from starseed propaganda to Mr. Lizos’s rejection of scholarship.Why have online “influencers” promoted this book to their audiences? Many of their critiques focus on surface-level issues, such as the absence of Hades or Hekate, Xenia and Dionysus while missing the far more serious problem: this book aligns itself with New Age propaganda and ancient alien beliefs, ultimately leading people astray in their understanding of ancient Greek history, mythology, and ancient Greek religion.Chapters:(00:00) Why are we doing this?(08:04) The starseed propaganda(18:55) Claims all scholars are wrong?(29:35) Greek gods are love and light?(36:03) Zeus isn’t a monarch, ascension and soul contracts?(41:35) Misogynistic view on goddesses(44:50) Artemis is “control”?(49:41) Hera is the maiden, mother and crone?(53:12) Hestia is boring and blasé?(58:24) The apple of discord and his theology?(1:00:14) Where is the “mysticism”?(1:09:15) Calling out the “influencers” that promoted this bookCalling all devotees to Styx and Bones that are content creators!
