It's the kind of shit that useless shits lose their shit about.

The problem is never WHO is conducting the science, it's that science isn't being
conducted.

In archaeology, for example, Americans are far better. They're way more conservative. Americans move slower, process/sift more soil, they're
more careful. Now go rent some copies of the long-lived British series "Time Team," where they're scraping a Roman villa with a backhoe...

The British practice vandalism and call it archaeology, yes, but the Egyptians are far worse.

In China they still use explosives to dig out fossils, the same way it was done here in the 19th century...

The problem with paleo anthropology isn't who is doing the digging, it's that it's a social program controlled by self imposed elites who bitterly resent anyone who isn't a self imposed elite.

Fyi; after saying this I checked on Youtube, found an old Time Team episode where they're looking for Roman temples only to then attack them with a backhoe, exactly as described.

This is why American archaeologists are the best: The Europeans practice vandalism and call it archaeology...

AND THEY'RE NOT THE WORST!

Like I said, the Chinese still use dynamite... the Egyptians mishandle & contaminate ancient human remains.
