I'm sure this guy could have written a whiny, scornful article at any stage of mankind's progress.

"Earth rotates around the Sun? Who is this Galileo, a Sun-worshipper??"

Lucky for him, in this timeline he survives to adulthood to write his Substack blog, rather than dying of polio, smallpox and/or the plague. He lives beyond the wildest dreams of a pharaoh and takes it utterly for granted.

New Pharaohs indeed.
