Absolutely. The average joe has no historical nuance beyond Good and Evil. I find that it is fairly easy to sift propaganda from the bullshit just by looking at how nuanced the piece is as well it is a little viable, if not always reliable.There is so much borderline propaganda and effortless pop-history videos that it's almost impossible to separate the good from the bad, at least for the average person.
I was wondering when that smug snaggle-toothed Brit's video talking about plagiarism on Youtube was gonna bite him and his ilk in the ass. A good 90% of the people he hangs out with or promotes are those who just talk out of their wounds about certain subjects and give zero shit about citations or proper references. So many of those video essay channels like his, lift much of their scripts from other sources or bend the definition of "inspiration" so far that it was strange seeing him complain about that stuff knowing that it'll get people to start intently scrutinizing his section of the internet. I would not be surprised if somebody else exposed the man for being a hack fraud himself in a few months now that the topic is being discussed.
Looks like the Hbomb video is starting to ripple through history tube. Never heard of this guy, videos kinda vague. Content farms like Extra Credits exist, Wikipedia recap channels exist, people don't cite their sources properly, youtube doesn't really encourage it, yada yada. Interesting bit is around 7:20 when he states he's in an invite only Slack channel of Historytubers who are reexamining their work to avoid criticism.
Went to go check his recommended channels and yeah, it's exactly who you'd expect. Freda, Sean Munger, Rowan Ellis, some girl who does 'Cognitive Psych readings' of Jordan Peterson and Ben Shapiro. So looks like a bunch of breadtube adjacent historytubers are concerned if their 5k view videos debunking the chuds aren't up to academic paper standards of citation, they're gonna get eaten by their own. What do you get when you cross unemployed academics and leftist purity spiraling, Murray? Ya get what you fuckin' deserve.
Enjoyed it. Man, no one's good at war. You're just less shit than the other guy.My favourite Aussie historian is back with 4 hours on the falklands.
Bob Gymlan is an interesting channel -- most of his stuff is cryptid-related (more fitting for our Nexpo/YT Horror Channels thread, but those videos do bleed over into Historytube/Edutainment). He's got decent production values without being "over-polished" if that makes any sense? However, his biggest issue is that he's a die-hard true believer in bigfoot. While it's a nice breath of fresh air from the reddit-tier skeptics who hate any and all conspiracies, he tends to take everything that's pro-bigfoot at face value and enters every video with a "cryptids are definitely real" bias. I guess having his bias out in the open is nice and all and he's come across some really interesting stories I couldn't find elsewhere, but it gets a bit tiring after a while.So I watched Bob Gymlan's Tsavo Man Eaters video and that was decent.
And then I watched his Sankebesto Bear and I was pissed off.
I understand that dramatising something makes it more compelling, but the account is dramatic enough without pretending that he knows what the victims were thinking at any one moment.
Good luck Rudy, there are a million ways this could go and with only a few outcomes.Rudy is going to make a video on god's chosen people:

I got annoyed the first time, but I came back to it when a few months later and I'm okay with it. It's a great campfire story, and he does a good job of telling it. I also like the fact Gylmlan is a standard shitlib that believes in the 2nd amendment not for any Orwell quote about the proletariat or hicklib shit, but because the workers might have to fight off bears, wolves and cryptids. I enjoy views I've never imagined existing.I understand that dramatising something makes it more compelling, but the account is dramatic enough without pretending that he knows what the victims were thinking at any one moment.
Literally a 40 minute video on how effective range is different from actual maximum range all delivered by a wop affecting a British accent, what a faggot. Although the sources were nice and actually worth a read.View attachment 5561906
Is Brandon F. really friends with satanists?
Listening to it now, love it. He's explaining the war really well and all the pieces involvedMy favourite Aussie historian is back with 4 hours on the falklands.
He actually had a good thing going, prior to the launch of the WWII channel, Forgotten weapons and a dozen other YouTube channels agreed to an ongoing collaboration. Spartacus however had split with the makers of the Great war channel (real time history), and apparently became impossible to work with alternating between ridiculous editorial demands and just not replying to emails.Spartacus is back again to tell you to save "OuR dEmOcRaCy!!!" on a channel dedicated to documenting WW2, because this is obviously what people want to see. It's about what you expect from a faggot like him.
I thought at one point when he started referencing 'Black History' YouTuber ie the We Wuz Kangs crowd he was going to get interesting, but then he bottled it (though it obviously annoys him) His channel is just him whinging about other history YouTubers. Taking a shot at Tik along the way. Tik has a lot of problems but lack of sources and references isn't one of them. He has a very simple technique of simply posting the cover of the book he's referencing on the screen when he's talking. The video that faggot references cherry picks Tik referencing episodes of Joe Rogan and other YouTube videos.Fredda is a Breadtuber disguised as a Historytuber so he makes videos on things you'd expect someone like that to create.
In other news, someone made a video talking about "plagiarism" as it relates to History Youtube. No doubt this was inspired by what hbomberguy did.
That's a great video. I remember watching the mini series they made about him, which essentially boiled down to all the girls in the factory were liars, and the it was the black guy, that did it.
Video on Leo Frank, the pedo rapist the ADL was founded on. Wonder how long this will stay up, especially with the Jew voice in there.

He is Spartacus Olsson, an associate of Indiana "Indy" Neidell. They run some media company together.Who is this wanker? I know that Indie split with the guys from The Great War to do a WW2 version of the Great War., The Great War team continued on as Real Time History. Where does this guy fit in?
I know the man is somewhat knowledgeable on linear warfare along with the Napoleonic era and YouTube always recommends this guy's videos because that's one of my favorite eras of history to learn about, but I just can't stand his weird roleplaying as a British redcoat for whatever autistic reason he has even though his blood is 110% bronxs rigatoni. A Hawaiian is more closely related to King George the Third than him. Smug pompous Anglo characters stopped being seen as smart and witty in the mid-2010s and anyone who still does that schtick is now only seen as an arrogant annoyance.View attachment 5561906
