Oh boy Rudy I'm looking forward to this.
THE MERGE IS ON!!!


Rudy is an intelligent go- I mean man

Feels like he is pulling back and cucking for no reason.
Think he will have to get into deeper and deeper mental gymnastics to simultaneously defend his libertarian and traditional values. Probably sway slightly more right at some point.

He should read Hoppe, but probably too extreme for him. More liberal societies occur when a group is willing to delay gratification for long term gains, which is also the basis in which classical libertarianism is founded in. Hoppe, while his solutions are extreme, is correct that a libertarian society would be traditionalist because that tends to promote delayed gratification and thus a sustainable system.

Also you don't debate with Vaush. He is a shill and a globohomo neolib puppet. He is as genuine and worthwhile debating as Richard Spencer.

Here's the debate link.

I have a soft spot for Rudy; he has that slightly autistic book-smart attitude and I can see him going into a 2 hour tangent about how a French King’s choice of clothing lead to some war in the HRE (it’s a kind of wholesome sperging I like seeing in the history sphere). However, he really is becoming a naïve Dunning-Kruger stereotype (I think somebody up thread mentioned that). He has a charm in how his videos feel amateurish, but he’s trying to push into social commentary — an already crowded field. I sympathize with his views but if he stops being a small unknown channel and gets noticed by the big names and their rabid fans, Rudy is going crumble like tissue paper. It’s like watching a (somewhat cocky) sheep wandering towards a cliff with wolves at the bottom.

As for his race comments/contradictions, he is still really young and has idealist beliefs he’s trying to force data into. It might be him attempting to keep YouTube happy too, but in any case, I think these contradictions will reach a boiling point.

I would hate to see Rudy become a lolcow before Cynical Historian or Emperor Tigerstar, but who knows at this point.
I think that Rudy will soon start getting an ego and grow out of touch. He mentioned his silicon valley and business contacts across several videos. Based on his pearl stream they appear to be mostly startup bros and trust fund kiddies. They went to Thailand and lived in a mansion in Mexico together, and the rich kid attitude is already rubbing off on Rudy. I was cringning when he mentioned crossing India in a motorized rikshaw. Stuff like that gives me flashbacks to all shallow people with too much money who try to be deep and interesting way too hard that I met.
More pearl shilling will get annoying for sure. I think that the platform is still half baked and not very well thought out. It feels like a bad twitter and discord hybrid with some twitch functionality.

Well that was less than useful. Again, maybe it's my disdain for modern debating where you try to aggressively out-talk and baffle your opponent, but it's definitely obvious Rudy is book-smart rambler (aka sperg). Vaush is decently well-read enough as well and is holding back letting Rudy tie his own noose (which I guess means he's winning by modern debate standards). Neither is seeing the forest from the trees and arguing around each other (makes me think of some pseudo-intellectual coworkers and classmates I had in the past).

TLDR: modern internet debates are fake and gay and we really need to go back to individual interviews to actually discuss and learn shit (which will never happen)...

I don't see the point of debating vaush unless it is to character assassinate vaush. In a debate with vaush, you should never have the conversation be about yourself and your world views. Allways have it be about vaush and his retarded thinking.
 
SideQuest, a History YouTuber not talked about in this thread has recently received unreal growth. I remember seeing the channel having 80k or so subs last month and now it's nearing 300k. What happened here?

In hindsight, it might've been their video on Britain nearly becoming Muslim that blew them up.
A couple pages back (mid April 2022), we linked some of their vids. Criminally underrated for years and now it’s getting recognition. YouTube algorithm roulette works in mysterious ways…

This channel is criminally underrated.

Definitely one of the few recent YouTube channels promoted by the algorithm that is actually good.
 
He's really banking on this "alt history iceberg" shit ain't he?

Also, there's the complimentary twitter sperging to go along with your newest "[Insert Topic Here] Iceberg" autism

What was that saying about Leftist memes?
Neoliberalism is a scourge but AHH is being retarded. That meme can be simplified so easily but a leftist obviously made it

Vaush is the Richard Spencer of the left (Though Spencer is a lefty shill himself), both are the posterchild internet figures for some fringe radical ideology that will "solve" society's issues, are faggot creeps, and incessantly shill to the corporate neoliberal establishment they claim to hate. Only a unprincipled cretin like Vaush would suck off to big pharma and call himself an anarcho-communist or like Spencer would shill for Joe Biden and the European Union while calling himself a white nationalist. You might as well debate with an FBI informant. They probably are ones anyways. Even if Vaush wasn't, you don't debate with a rabid leftist. They are Machiavellian to the core and care more about winning than being right.

Are there any history YouTubers that are not bad because most of them seem to be people who put politics first history last
Greg's airplanes and automobiles. He's a no nonsense boomer aviation history guy. Doesn't make flashy videos for the algorithm, just traditional slideshow type narration that follows a logical path.
 
Emperorfaggotstar i hopping on the iceberg trend, I'm surprised he didn't feel the need to virtue signal about the confederates being evil huwite men

That's more of an Atun-Shei Films thing than that furry faggot. Speaking of that guy, he made a video defending Puritanism a few months back, calling them "a radically progressive social justice movement."

Ironic considering they'd mostly exile anyone who wasn't a Puritan.

Yeah, your right atun-shei is the fag that makes the checkmate lincolnites to constantly shit on the confederacy, and also calling the Puritans progressive is lol worthy, they literally called anyone they didn't like a witch, and proceeded to torture them and execute them

That's like one tier down from calling Jesus a socialist in terms of retarded modern day political comparisons.

Replace "witch" with "nazi" and that does sound like RPG.net (along with some other sites)...

Didn't the Puritans try to ban Christmas?
