I cannot thing of one thing about this stream-cast video-series "1883" that I have found objectionable.
Made me take a closer look at its parent, the video-series "Yellowstone"
Was certain I wasn't going to watch any of it
But then I read that the "Yellowstone" debut episode, from 2018, is titled "Daybreak" and that forced notions into my head, sitting here again at this same stupid desk.
Watching more of this "1883" episode 7, I like stories that are written from the perspective, as this one was well-written, of the primitive, ignorant.
Everyone is literally ignorant. Today, tomorrow, and forever.
But there is such basic ignorance that exists even now in this modern time.
I can recall someone was baffled when I explained that earthquakes mostly are caused by plate-tectonics
So much superstition still exists today in this world because of - and reinforced by ignorance about - the sky above
You're ignorant and you're too ignorant to grasp your own ignorance.
Now if I could only figure out why my conscious thoughts are so often prescient of what I later see and of what I later read.
You monkeys will never understand, of course.
*You* will never have anything other than your superstitions, your religions that teachs you nothing but circular-reasoning.

"Lightning Yellow Hair"
TV-series season 1 episode 7
(from internet transcript)
ELSA: The best way to know if land is truly undiscovered is to seek words to describe it. When you can't, you know it's virgin land. Untouched by our dirty hands. To see it is to be silenced by it. Made speechless by its endless uniformity To crest a rise is to see another that is identical. One must read the sun and stars like a sailor to navigate this place. We've seen nothing but grass for over a week: no game, no birds, no snakes, not even a lizard, and no evidence the human race still exists. But the plains are littered with bones. The dirty hand of man can go unnoticed in the city. Because his dirty hand made the city. But in this place, where innocence is a mineral in the soil, the filth of our touch is an apocalypse.

I see 'em.
What do we do?
Keep holding the herd.
Don't worry about them.
They're just payin' the tax.
What tax?
You gotta pay a tax when you graze cattle in Comanche land.
Well, you don't "gotta", but if you want to stay out of a gunfight, it's a pretty good idea
The Comanches can charge a tax?
It's their land. They can do whatever they want. The only people who think this is America still live in Washington.
There's water in this draw.
Push the herd to it.
We'll make camp here.
Carve one out for the cook first.
- All right.
- COLTON: Yes, sir.

Rayleigh scattering
From Wikipedia
Rayleigh scattering of sunlight in Earth's atmosphere causes diffuse sky radiation, which is the reason for the blue color of the daytime and twilight sky, as well as the yellowish to reddish hue of the low Sun. Sunlight is also subject to Raman scattering, which changes the rotational state of the molecules and gives rise to polarization effects.
