EWF Was Never Told Astrology Isn't Real Or Blacks Didn't Once Rule Over Egypt

TMR finds it amazing that a band could be as famous as Earth, Wind & Fire were, without anyone pulling them aside and saying, "You know all this NewAge, astrology-and-Egypt crap's a HUGE load of bullshit, right?"
But - apparently - nobody did, for decades.
Americans just went along with the charade - until a Netflix special made the obvious explicit:
These niggas were out they mothafuckin' minds.
And propagating a cult ideology all along.
One that's sad, and tragic, and even perverse, when seen as the efforts of the descendants of American slaves, in the 20th century, to establish an identity - still - from before our nation's twisted character took over our lives, denying us an education, a past, and even an education of a past.
Blacks, building 'spiritual' pillars, erected on sand.
And, friend or foe, nobody said anything.
Until, of course, the Egyptians saw Netflix.
And they either got pissed, or thoroughly enjoyed a laugh, at black's expense.
Not America's, for cruelly allowing it's citizens to wallow in the deep-end of madness.
And, also, encouraging that madness to never end.
