Considering he believes in "Selfishness Is A Virtue", he'll jizz his pants.

Social abandonment, corporate welfare.

Happy 4th of July!

>Believes selfishness is a virtue
>Is a Christian

Pick one, Razor. You can't believe in both. Even Ayn Rand understood that.

Even Ayn Rand was an honest atheist. She couldn't reconcile her personal philosophy of selfishness with a God who demands helping the less fortunate. Unlike Razorfist, who grifts as a Christian while still supporting selfishness as a virtue, she was intellectually honest, and at least you'd have to respect THAT about her.

Yeah he never mentioned the complete dumpster fire that was the Xbox 360's (really the 7th console gen as a whole) weak latter half of its lifespan, which was about the time ME2 and Skyrim dropped. He called the ecosystem more diverse, when in reality the Japs were just replaced by the yankees for a bit, since their gaming market was really tanking around that time. I would love a more varied market where Japanese and Western developers are playing off of each other to make better games, like the 6th gen console gen arguably was.

Every generation from 1-6 was experimenting on how to make games better. 7th was when they found niches that could be extremely profitable, so they got stuck making games less risky and more based on blockbusters that made bank. That's why you had a ton of FPS games and later, open-world games, because games like Halo 3, CoD Modern Warfare 2, Mass Effect 2, and Skyrim made so much money.

Sadly now, it's moreso which side is putting out the least shitty games, and right now it's Asia (particularly China). Stellar Blade is being met with glowing praise merely for not being a steaming pile of dogshit and having a cute protagonist. I don't even think that game cuts the mustard, but that's just me.

The gaming industry has been treading water since the mid-2010s. I saw the Xbox One announcement and realized the forward-thinking phase of gaming was over. From then on, Xbox and Playstation would compete with the PC and lose, while Nintendo stayed at the nostalgia/party/family games niche and kept it due to sheer staying power.

A game like Stellar Blade would've been not much to write about in the era of Bayonetta, Soul Calibur 4, Mortal Kombat 9, and DOA 4, where sexy girls with big tits were as common as water. But in today's sterile, puritanical culture? Stellar Blade was an example of how basic competency was the equivalent of seeing the face of God.

A video that rebukes Razor's rebuke.

First to point out. Metal Eve first appearence was in 2018 (The voice atleast). In video stream of "Underworld Ascendant" and whatever this other stream was. When she was 18 (Funny number)
But thats the allegation of it. Whether she was 15 when he (allegedly) groomed her, Is more a he said she said thing.
At 1:30-3:55 in the video.

So that means it checks out.

1: Him claiming that his 2015 Thief 4 stream, has MetalEve in it at 9:44 - 10:05
But later it could be this girl aswell, proven by another stream here.10:34 - 11:07
And yeah i know MetalEve's voice and, it doesnt entirely sound like her.

So i am gonna take it Razor is just good at manipulation tactics

2: Also, about his "slong".
The rebuke is the background looks really identical to that of Razor's real background in one of his earlier videos
from 18:17- 18:23

Here's is two hour video about Joe McCarthy.

 

[Joakim]

Here's is two hour video about Joe McCarthy.

Somebody give a summary. Don't wanna watch a video about a man that mostly targeted innocent people.

 

[LORD IMPERATOR]

Here's is two hour video about Joe McCarthy.

This would be an interesting video, if it wasn't for the timing.

Between the Texas floods killing dozens of people (and Trump's lackluster response to them), Trump's admin saying there was no Epstein List despite previously claiming that they had it, people in Congress bitching that the Big Beautiful Bill fucks over their constituents, and Elon Musk openly founding his own party with the sole purpose of unseating pro-Trump legislators, it seems more like a distraction. A distraction from the fact that the Trump admin that Razorfist has spent the last few months butt-kissing is falling apart at the seams. Especially when the ICE Raids and the potential war with Iran on Israel's behalf is slowly eroding support for Trump, even among the military, especially when the latter openly bungled Trump's birthday parade, to the point where Trump had to yell at Hegseth for it.

Yes, Commies were bad. Yes, McCarthy might have been more than correct about them. But given our current political situation, this seems less like uncovering unknown truths and more like preaching to the choir. More than half the people watching this video already agree with its premise before clicking on it. I'm willing to bet that it's not bringing in anything new that hasn't been said already by Joe's defenders.

 

[baggydacky]

A video that rebukes Razor's rebuke.

I love the comments coping that she was 18 when they started dating and that makes it okay. Like, no shit, it's legal. Still inappropriate for a 30 something to be dating her...

 

[Jarolleon]

Somebody give a summary. Don't wanna watch a video about a man that mostly targeted innocent people.

Video's claims summarized:
-The commie infiltration during WW2 was through the OSS, and they wormtongued the US government into dropping the nationalists in China and letting the CCP take over, giving Stalin everything he wanted at Yalta, and pushed the Japs and Americans into fighting each other (agents in Japan helped the Strike South faction win out while agents in the US convinced them to antagonize the Japs as much as possible). Also backed the movement against joining the Western front of WWII while the Nazi-Soviet pact held.
-The Truman admin was just as crawling with commies as FDR's, Truman's crackdown was kayfabe and he with Dean Acheson obstructed many attempts to root them out, and the first McCarthy hearing, chaired by Tydings, was so stacked against him that it was effectively a show trial of McCarthy rather than his intended targets.
-Tydings also promoted a media hoax at the end of the hearing, that McCarthy had asserted that he had a list of 200 commies in a speech in Wheeling. He presented a record supposedly of that speech, but would only play it with a unanimous Senate vote, which he knew would not happen. He later admitted that it was a bluff when sued for libel. This was widely reported as confirmation that McCarthy did say that, crafting the popular image of McCarthy as witch hunter (wow, even the political hit jobs were apparently higher-quality back in the day!).
-Most of the middle of the vid is going over various people and commie hotbeds accused by McCarthy that were later confirmed by the Soviet archive leaks.
-None of the McCarthy hearings were actually convened by him, and most were made by the Democrats to discredit his accusations.
-Supposedly Eisenhower and Marshall were RINOs as well, poor Joe can't catch a break!
-Apparently the communist world was so intellectually dominant that when Ike tried to root out communism in the military, his people just packed the shelves with Trotskyite tomes because nobody can denounce Stalin like his seething exiled rival. At least that clears out how a bunch of barely disguised Trotskyites managed to define American "conservatism" for 70 years.

I hope Vlogging Through History gets this recommended to him, just to see his reaction again like the Lincoln video.
I wish he had some sort of bibliography showing all sources he used.
Since one of the books were in frame Betrayal at Bethesda, I'm guessing that was one of the sources he used. I wonder how reputable is "Blacklisted by History" and "Betrayal At Bethesda"

It'd be fun to see; but VTH broke Razorfist's Lincoln video across his knee because his area of expertise is in Civil War history. He knows other historical parts and such, of course, because I think he's a history teacher and professional historian and such.
But unless he goes in deep on this specific topic, I'm not sure how helpful he'd be about this. And I'd question how interested he would be in doing a deep-dive on this topic itself, given that if he goes into this, all it'll do is have more drama and stupid shit instead of fun history videos like he usually does.

When moderates are suddenly cast as the enemy, you've got to question the narrative. This is why I came to question a lot of these right-wing talking heads; they'd cast even the people on their side who aren't blind, paste-eating retards as fake conservatives or RINOs. It's basically the Right's version of the Left purity-spiraling and attacking everyone who's not a dyed-in-the-wool socialist/feminist/SJW as a "Neo-Liberal" and as a part of the problem.

That's what happens when an actual historian goes after an amateur. I mean, it doesn't matter if it's Cold War history, Civil War history, or Protestant Reformation history, Danny-boy's historical takes are about as valid as a flat-Earth theory.

He knows other historical parts and such, of course, because I think he's a history teacher and professional historian and such.

I suppose someone can contact a dyed-in-the-wool Cold War historian over this and have them go over Razor's video.

 

[fagtoid]

"Communism bad, mmkay." What's next, he's gonna make a video about how Nazism is bad? I love how he makes videos like this thinking he's going against the grain or something. Damn near everyone and their grandmothers in the US has been beaten over the head countless times about "Communism bad!". Same thing with Nazism. Now, of course there are still leftist/progressive dipshits that champion the ideology, but the same thing happens with Nazism.

Not gonna watch his dogshit video, but my guess is he's gonna claim the commie infiltrators are from the Soviet Union or China, instead of homegrown commies?

I am perfectly satisfied that President Eisenhower was a crypto-communist saboteur or, at best, grossly incompetent to the point of treasonable incapacity. His pro-Soviet intervention in the 1956 Suez Crisis, backing Egyptian dictator Nasser against Britain and France, stands out as absolutely the worst foreign policy decision the USA made during the entire Cold War. The USA's stupidly selfish and short-sighted decision to break Anglo-French imperial prestige may have cemented the USA's position as undisputed hegemon of the West but the second-order consequences radiating out from it made it utterly self-defeating.

-Eisenhower could have used the Suez as a bargaining chip to gain concessions in Hungary. By demanding a unilateral withdrawal he abandoned anti-communist Hungarians to be massacred by the Soviets.

-Eisenhower gave prestige to Nasser and in so doing empowered Arab nationalism, which in turn directed its ire against Israel. There would have been far fewer Israeli wars (and Israel and the Jewish lobby would thus have far less influence over US politics in general) without this.

-Eisenhower directly expanded the influence of the USSR by turning the Middle East into a Soviet backyard, provoking a wave of anti-Western revolutions against governments that were previously friendly to Britain and France. This led to the rise of the Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party, and with it the Assads, and Saddam Hussein. So - Every American who has been killed in Iraq, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen (the Houthi territory today is where Nasser invaded in the 60s) died because of Ike.

-Eisenhower provoked the spread of communism across Africa by accelerating the rate of European decolonisation. It was happening anyway, but his breaking of the UK and France at Suez caused a rush for the door instead of an orderly withdrawal before robust systems could be put in place to prevent leftist takeovers.

-The USA today often complains about European countries underspending on defence and not making adequate contributions to NATO. Well, that all began at Suez, where Uncle Sam made it very clear that he didn't want equal partners, he wanted obedient minor auxiliaries that took his orders. Well, you got what you wanted.

I spit on Eisenhower's grave. If Razorfist wants to belittle Ike, he'll get no complaints from me.

So, basically he was pulling things out of his ass like usual. Not surprised.

 

[LORD IMPERATOR]

So, basically he was pulling things out of his ass like usual. Not surprised.

Razor pulling shit out of his ass isn't restricted to history takes; kind of like how he claimed Halo Reach was this labyrinthine puzzle when it was streamlined and direct like all Halo games.

I am perfectly satisfied that President Eisenhower was a crypto-communist saboteur or, at best, grossly incompetent to the point of treasonable incapacity. His pro-Soviet intervention in the 1956 Suez Crisis, backing Egyptian dictator Nasser against Britain and France, stands out as absolutely the worst foreign policy decision the USA made during the entire Cold War. The USA's stupidly selfish and short-sighted decision to break Anglo-French imperial prestige may have cemented the USA's position as undisputed hegemon of the West but the second-order consequences radiating out from it made it utterly self-defeating.

Oh, please. Anglo-French Imperial prestige was already on its way out due to the fact that just plainly, they can no longer hold on to their colonies thanks to WW2 bankrupting them and war just being plain unpopular because they're tired of it. Also, if they tried to, they'd end up like Portugal; bankrupting themselves holding nations that don't like them. If America tried to help them hold on to their colonial possessions instead, you'd get a hundred conflicts like the Vietnam War; American soldiers dying in some foreign country for nothing.

Also, the Anglos being unhappy that their empire died is rather rich, considering they helped accelerate the decolonization of Latin America by stopping the European Holy League from returning Latin America to Spain after the Napoleonic Wars. What America did with the Suez Canal, Britain did with the entirety of Spanish America. England used its massive fleet to block off any European efforts to retake Latin America for Spain, which accelerated the region's decline. So what the Americans did to them in Egypt is just them having a taste of their own medicine.

The same thing goes for France; their little revolution upended the European balance of power that kept the European empires in concert; it also spread the poison of European liberalism which became the framework for movements like Communism, which tried to ape the French Revolution's anti-religious, anti-traditional ideology. The result is the modern world's scorn for tradition and religion in the West.

So you'll have to forgive me if I don't cry tears of sorrow over the French and the English losing their empires; what happened to them in the late 1900s was something they themselves inflicted upon the world a century prior. Your attitude towards Eisenhower is something I have for the British and the French after they ruined the West.

-Eisenhower could have used the Suez as a bargaining chip to gain concessions in Hungary. By demanding a unilateral withdrawal he abandoned anti-communist Hungarians to be massacred by the Soviets.

That was FDR/Truman and Churchill's fault for abandoning Eastern Europe to the Soviets in the first place.

-Eisenhower gave prestige to Nasser and in so doing empowered Arab nationalism, which in turn directed its ire against Israel. There would have been far fewer Israeli wars (and Israel and the Jewish lobby would thus have far less influence over US politics in general) without this.

The British empowered Arab nationalism in the first place against the Ottomans, then pissed them off by not giving them what they wanted. This was one time when the US stood up to Israeli interests.

-Eisenhower directly expanded the influence of the USSR by turning the Middle East into a Soviet backyard, provoking a wave of anti-Western revolutions against governments that were previously friendly to Britain and France. This led to the rise of the Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party, and with it the Assads, and Saddam Hussein. So - Every American who has been killed in Iraq, Lebanon, Syria and Yemen (the Houthi territory today is where Nasser invaded in the 60s) died because of Ike.

-Eisenhower provoked the spread of communism across Africa by accelerating the rate of European decolonisation. It was happening anyway, but his breaking of the UK and France at Suez caused a rush for the door instead of an orderly withdrawal before robust systems could be put in place to prevent leftist takeovers.

Refer to what I said about French and English imperialism. You can't hold people that don't like you-especially if they hate your guts. Just look at what happened when France tried to hold on to its colonies; it was a disaster. Same for Portugal.

Also, the Ba'ath party was helped by the Americans BECAUSE they originally hated the Soviets; Saddam's uncle was previously pro-western and anti-communist, so that sinks your point, because originally, American support for the regime in Iraq was to PREVENT the Middle East from becoming the USSR's background. Same with the Shah, who tried to westernize Iran. If he wasn't overthrown by the Ayatollah, we'd have a westernized, secular Iran right now, with American support.

As for Africa, right now it's mostly dominated by Christians and Muslims, showing how Communism is pretty much ineffective down there. You either have Christian countries playing catch-up with the West, or Muslim fundamentalists who hate the West, Communists included.

-The USA today often complains about European countries underspending on defence and not making adequate contributions to NATO. Well, that all began at Suez, where Uncle Sam made it very clear that he didn't want equal partners, he wanted obedient minor auxiliaries that took his orders. Well, you got what you wanted.

That's because England, France, and Israel wanted to take the Suez Canal from the people who lived there; and it would've been unpopular among the peoples of Europe anyways, who don't really care for their imperial past and want their boys home. Nor do they want to pay crushing taxes to keep their empires at a time when their economies need repair after WW2. The Soviets and the Americans merely hastened what was inevitable.

To be fair it's less purity-spiralling and more "strange bedfellows". Razor is the Western Civ version of a LARP pagan, trying to cobble together a pre-Marxian worldview from the scraps that still appeal to people (most of the online right is this). Both sides of American politics are communist heresies, Democrats are Frankfurt Schoolers & establishment Republicans are crypto-Trotskyists, the latter are more tolerant towards his kind which is why he cheerleads them. Of course communism is a total disaster if actually implemented, so every civilised country since the fall of the USSR's shtick has been to launder capitalism with crap like "social justice", "our democracy" or "socialism with Chinese characteristics" so the population is ideologically animated but still economically viable.

That just doesn't work, at the end of the day. Razor trying to cobble together a facsimile of Christianity with Randian philosophy and Trumpian politics when the commands of the Gospel run counter to both of those highlights the center of political and religious hypocrisy in our day. Anyone with an IQ of over 50 who reads the Gospels would know that Razor's version of Christianity is full of shit, according to the teachings of Jesus Christ Himself.

Although I suppose Razor isn't new to that; his girlfriend caught him gooning to porn when she lived with him; then he goes off and condemns people for having gooner-games, when he himself defended a game that not only has sex with gays, but animals and demons as well.

The great irony about Bethesda was that, the more it went the way of Skyrim, the more they became popular. It was barely a blip on the radar when Squeenix and Bioware were cutting up the big-name RPG market between the two of them. Back then, if it was WRPGs you wanted, you went to Bioware, and if you wanted JRPGs, you went to Squeenix, but when Skyrim came out, even fucking Nintendo started jotting down notes from Bethesda's formula. Razor himself noted how Japanese devs tend to be set on their ways, so for one of the most traditional Japanese game designers to take notice of Skyrim and try to copy its formula goes to show how successful it was.

Y'know, aside from the fact that people kept buying it when it's re-released for different consoles. Razorfist's review of it looks awfully dated when fans loved it so much, they kept modding it to keep playing it.
