I think it's pretty much a given you know next to nothing about Meso American civilizations. The clue was when you started talking the so called end of the world scenario as "predicted" by the Mayan calendar.
This is the type of faux history bullshit that people randomely pick up from crappy TV shows where people with tonorous voices dispense an endless barrage of bullshit, "may be's" and "perhaps" and "it has been speculated" and "here is random expert number 64, we're using special sound effects and images and fancy titles in order to convince you he's an authority on the subject, let's hear the bullshit he has to say".
Basically, go open a fucking book. I think Taxi is a bleeding heart liberal, probably very young, idealistic, etc...I wouldn't say I'd agree with him on any subject political, but at least he interprets data and has some semblance of background knowledge, unlike people who just won't shut the fuck up even though they have zero knowledge on the subject.
TL;DR: go read a fucking book.
