Has Brandon F. become the biggest actual Lolcow in historytube?
Haven't watched it but I'm going to assume he has repented of his Anti-Patriot slander and was forced to admit the Mel Gibson movie went down exactly like it was shown and he did kill a British officer with an American flag.

Edit: Not the character he was based on, Mel Gibson himself. He took a film crew back in time.

Oh that silly movie did gave him an aneurysm
 
I can't find it now, but I remember back a few years Brandon advertised walking tours around Boston on his website. I can't remember any details like where he took you. Maybe someone has an archive of it. I always wondered what it would be like.
The revelation that he's just some Italian guy in Boston living his life as a Gilbert and Sullivan character is hilarious to me. I imagine the walking tour is just this
 
1. Washington DC
2. Los Angeles
3. Las Vegas
Won't even consider San Francisco and New York City

All of those cities except Washington DC have legitimate histories, reasons to exist, and three of them have distinct architectural styles. Washington is different in that it is an artificial imperial capital that exists only to hold office buildings and monuments, monuments that are mostly rather recent. The city mostly stands for America at its worst. It deserves obliteration by nuclear hellfire.

Los Angeles is pretty bland. Hollywood both deserves obliteration for its degeneracy and to be saved for its real cultural value as the center of the world film industry.

San Francisco is a beautiful and historical city (both 1800s prospectors and Mark Twain era and 1960s/1970s Summer of Love/days of rage era), regardless of it being annoying politically.

Las Vegas may be dEgEnErAtE but it has a very distinct architecture in its casino area.

New York City is the world's first, I believe, skyscraper forest and still one of the best, is one of the oldest cities in the country, way too historical.

Oh this guy. Look, his video on WW1 Cavalry was quite good, but I have to say it.

Brandon, I love the Georgian-era and British Army history as much as you do, but:

You will never be a real Redcoat. You have no powder, you have no regiment, you have no recruiter. You are an Ohio-born Yankee twisted by contrarianism and Anglophilia to a crude mockery of line battle perfection. All the “validation” you get is two-faced and half-hearted. Behind your back people mock you. Your parents are disgusted and ashamed of you, your “friends” laugh at your lobsterback appearance behind closed doors. Historians are utterly repulsed by you. Hundreds of years of evolution have allowed Brits to sniff out frauds with incredible efficiency. Even Britboos who “pass” look uncanny and unnatural to a bloke. Your accent is a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to get a drunk Tommy to talk with you, he’ll turn tail and bolt the second he gets a whiff of your wannabe Union Jack waving. You will never be happy. You wrench out a fake smile every single morning and tell yourself it’s going to be ok, but deep inside you feel the depression creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight. Eventually it’ll be too much to bear - you’ll buy a Brown Bess, spitload it, put it in your mouth, and shatter your skull. Your parents will find you, heartbroken but relieved that they no longer have to live with the unbearable shame and disappointment. They’ll bury you with a headstone marked with your American name, and every passerby for the rest of eternity will know an American is buried there. Your body will decay and go back to the dust, and all that will remain of your legacy is a skeleton that is unmistakably Yankee. This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.

And what is it with insufferable pophistorians being walking tour guides?

I heard he did the same thing with The Passion of The Christ.

You really think there's that many people out there that speak pre Colombian Meso American dialects? Open your eyes, people.
He is part of Nebula, so he obviously had to sell out.
How is Nebula, as a product? I'm wary of such services but there's a documentary on the time the Soviets tried to replace everything bigger than a machine gun with a recoilless rifle that has me interested

Edit: @Rome's rightful successor
I actually went back to check and forgot he spent like two hours on top of his nitpicking complaining the movie didn't derail itself into an exploration of slavery or feature enough women. What a fuckin' dweeb lol. If he's in Boston I hope some guy named Sully who's 10 Sam Adams and Irish folk songs deep shoves his head into a toilet.

Is there anything out there throughly deboonking Atun Shei?
Not that I've seen (and I haven't really looked either) but there isn't a need for it. Atun Shei inhabits that sphere of youtube where he's making videos solely for people who already agree with him and anyone who doesn't can see without too much effort just how retarded he is.

I found this video after a quick search, I haven't watched it but maybe it would interest you:

The seethe in that comments section is incredible.

Ryan Dawson used to keep saying how he was going to debunk the checkmate lincolnites guy but I don’t think he ever did.

Is ok, I guess. Some exclusive videos, videos are uploaded a whole week before they hit YouTube, you can discover what on paper is a heavily curated line-up of indie edutainment. But is explicitly Breadtube and its friends and the CEO is a wanker that says his platform will be Netflix's competition with 'A24 vibes' the same month A24 started to whore itself for mainstream appeal.
The only thing in its favour is that the creators 'own' stakes in the company and is a more reliable way of supporting them that YouTube, but when you remember the guys in this thing are the ones responsible for the what has become of YouTube and get preferential treatment on top of some of the most bloated Patreon grifts there are, well, let's just say I have a literal hateboner for Nebula. Don't hate the players, hate the game and the rules they made.
 
There's also this one:
Atun Shei is more focused on film making than history, he got a measure of success because he found an audience that wanted certain historical takes (such as why melting down statues is fine) and he had the film making skills to make them entertaining.

However once he got popular he decided that he could push his student films on that same audience with much less success.
 
HistoryTube Alternate History Drama

Josh Sullivan History vs. Possible History

Video Description:
I'm sure you are all well aware with the YouTuber Possible History, a Dutch Alternate Historian who's seen abnormal levels of growth recently. Well, not too long ago, I saw that, in a recent video he made with several of his YouTuber friends, Possible History insulted a map and a scenario I made, while neglecting many of his own faults as well. So, this video should help shed a light on this whole scenario, and go to show what kind of YouTuber Possible History really is. Enjoy!
