Yeah and you're leaving out multiple things.

For one, IH didn't copypaste the article. He got a whole group to voice act it, animate it, provide a soundtrack, and added multiple skits and jokes in it.

Comparing it to other people just copypasting and reading stuff verbatin with no additions or alterations is disgenuous to begin with.

For another, hbomber makes it clear this is a political hitjob when he complains about IH dunking on sjws.

And finally, the drama is already resolved, he credited the creator and edited the video. Again, it was wrong to do it in the first place, but its done, he apologized, he fixed it.

And again, he had a disclaimer in the original video pointing out that everything in it was fair use and didn't need credit. So it's not like he said "Imma swipe this article and no one will ever know!" or even just got careless about it; that he had the disclaimer means he looked into it and really believed it was transformative enough that he was in the clear. Which I guess can be a discussion in itself whether he was correct or mistaken, but that's not the issue anyone is talking about.

Timestamp from the Forspoken recap on his Storymode channel:

I'll bet you anything he made someone's fat wife/girlfriend angry. This is only the first shot, mark my words. You can get away with saying nigger on the internet easier than making a fat bitch mad.

If you don't believe me, think about it like this- what subreddit did Reddit ban first? FatPeopleHate or CoonTown?

Its because he spent a disproportionate ammount of time on the IH segment (I checked and its the biggest one, same size as illuminaughty) stretched out way longer than it needed to be, complained about IH not like SJWs revealing his hand, pretended it was the same as reading an article ignoring the animation, music, direction and voice acting that went into it and putting next to already resolved cases.

Not to defend my favourite edaddy, I think this was a huge blunder by IH, but harry's response was still disrpoportionate and clearly an attack because of IH's politics instead of a genuine issue with plaguarism.

There's a technique in marketing and propaganda called transference. It's the idea that surrounding something with good things will make it seem good and surrounding something with bad things will make it seem bad. This is how celebrity sponsorship and things work

The entire reason HBG goes over old cases like Mucin without adding anything to them is purely to associate people he doesnt like such as IH with massive deliberate serial plagiarism, rather than one or two fuck-ups.

This technique has clearly been massively successful on retards who are now acting like every video IH ever did was plagiarized

So IH can make fun of SJW cringe and that's fine. But HB making fun of rightoid cringe means he must be seething and frothing in a rage. Got it, thanks!

Look, I not saying that this person is them, just that there is a non-zero chance that this user is hbomberguy.

Think about it:

1. They are both retarded
2. Hbombergay is a SA Goon and Twinkie follows the Lowtax thread
3. Twinkie posts in the H(omosexual)bomberguy thread
4. Twinkie types and acts like a catty woman and so does hbuttholegay!

I could go on, but I think it's pretty clear at this point that the similarities are endless. I mean, honestly, to me at least, the only way for them to prove that they aren't hbuttburglerguy is to dox themselves. I rest my case.

I don’t think this was posted here:
Ace-8-8-8-Ace said:
Some guy on Twitter emailed Lucas Reily (the author of the article IH plagiarized from) (Archive) and apparently because shitloads of hbomber fans have been emailing him about it, he's made a brief response.

TL(azy);DR :
  • He finds it "very hurtful" that IH jacked his shit, because he spent a month writing it and did a load of research
  • He knows the first video got taken down, but didn't know it was reuploaded
  • IH did not and has never contacted him directly, and to his knowledge never contacted Mental Floss (the article publisher) either. Apparently Mental Floss's lawyers contacted IH after they saw the video but he doesn't know what was discussed.
Overall, not quite the gotcha that the Harry fan who posted the tweet thinks it is, but it is interesting, I guess.

Spent a month researching? Researching what? I don't see your sources good Sir. Does anyone else? I don't see credits for the original authors of the news paper articles, I don't know what article it is coming from, I don't know anything other than, here are some books we recomend you buy. If anything, this article is a fable based on real life events much like IH's video.

Mental Floss Article

Also, Null's opinion about "verbatim plagerism" based on a copystrike info from YouTube and then the subsequent pulling of the video could be IH's team going, "FUCK, some nigger journo hive put a copyright claim on our video. It isn't worth fighting it so lets pull it and adjust." It's just easier to come to an agreement than to rely on YouTube support.

Top level research from the leading preddit internet sleuths reveals that IH is a heckin nazi
ihlunacy.JPG
Since Hbomberguy's video, Plagiarism and You(Tube), I've been compiling information regarding IH's plagiarism and ties to the alt-right. However, there has yet to be a post fully dedicated to the latter, documenting all of the strange and disturbing discoveries over the last several days.

Listed below are the individual receipts, additional context, and their respective sources:

  • Dog-Whistle in The Bikelock Fugitive of Berkeley
    At 0:55, an item description box from World of Warcraft displays the durability value "14/88." Maximum durability values in WoW can only end in 5s or 0s, so this was not an unfortunate coincidence, but a deliberate edit. Additional Note: Transphobic pronouns joke at 0:10.
  • Internet Historian's Birthday Dog-Whistle
    In an interview with SumitoMedia (friend and mutual on twitter), IH confirms that when approached by the website Famous Birthdays, he submitted a fake birthday: April 20th, 1989. This is the 100th anniversary of Adolf Hitler's birthday on April 20th, 1889. At 5:43, Sumito asks if he's referring to 420, to which IH confirms, and at 6:35 IH says "Uh, yeah, 1989, I don't know. I can't remember, but there was some joke with 1989, I just can't remember what it is." A few comments speculate that IH is pretending he doesn't know Hitler's birthday. To one of which, Sumito replies "oh he knows."
  • Collaborations with Jonathan Jafari, aka JonTronShow
    Culture and Future. IH also follows JT on twitter.
  • Tucker Carlson Watch Parties
    IH made several comments on this post, which have since been deleted. However, here are screenshots of the original comments.
  • Follows Gavin McInnes on Twitter
    Founder of far-right terrorist group The Proud Boys.
  • Follows Chaya Raichik, aka Libs of TikTok on Twitter
    An anti-LGBT "activist" whose followers send bomb threats to schools and hospitals.
This is just what I've been able to piece together myself with the help of various reddit and twitter users. None of these examples are conclusive by themselves, but together they paint a rather upsetting picture. If you have any further information and evidence, please comment below and I will investigate/add it to the list. Feel free to share this with anyone who's unsure as to why IH is suspected of being a Nazi.

I personally just hope he never addresses any of the drama and just starts uploading again. I remember when the Chris Tyson situation happened with SunnyV2. The only thing to come of it after the drama was him changing the video title to something a little less heated.

It's been established that most of his fans don't give a shit about the plagarism allegations and I'm pretty sure the nazi allegations were astroturfed to hell (10k upvotes on a subreddit where posts normally barely break 100, be less obvious faggots).

I don't really keep up with Internet Historian, he makes funny videos and idc what his personal life is like. Expecting people to be pure snowflakes is npc behavior. Real people always have flaws. Likely many. Corporate whores appear pristine. Anyways, I forgot there was any drama going on about him until I came across this funny post.

Redditor laineymdrake recently found out that Internet Historian is a literal SS high ranking nazi guys! It's so ja-over, we need to sus out what other secret nazis may be circling him. Lmfao:


archive:

Karen's like this are always funny, so I took a quick look through their post history. Here they are:

Ofc she is triple vaxxed:

But still got covid ofc, lol:

and neglects her kitten at home:

Idk guys, neglecting kittens seems a bit nazi-ish. I mean you lock them in a camp (your bedroom) all day while you go do, probably, nazi stuff.

There's some other slight chuckles, she's a chronic AmITheAsshole poster which further proves the only people chronically commenting on AmITheAsshole are the biggest assholes.

To be fair, "FatPeopleHate" is pretty crystal clear on what it's about while the average normie probably has know idea what a "coon" is and why there's a town of it.

Holy shit that Reddit thread about investigating any IH collaborators for similar alt-right/Nazi views was pants-on-head retarded.

"He's a Nazi for following other Nazis on Twitter and hiding Nazi dogwhistles in his vids and anyone who associates with Nazis is a Nazi..."

His Nazi credentials apparently include following LibsofTiktok ("who sends bomb threats to hospitals") and watching Tucker Carlson clips five years ago in Discord.

I mean I guess if they literally just heard the title of the subreddit but I doubt they're going to click on it and mistake it for an African American appreciation sub...

Random thought but has anyone ever brought up the fact that as much as everyone freaked out over Ellen Pao, she never so much as touched racist subs? If I remember right, I don't even think the quarantining of subreddits came into being until after she was gone.
