>Lindy
His research is articulating his feels for the camera.
>Metatron
Is trying to reach an audience by quoting many known political memes. Fails to say much beyond that in the example vid.
>Shadman
Belongs to a sect famous for raping teenage girls, wrote a book about a dictator raping teenage girls.

If you couldn't tell the 3 youtubers mentioned in the video are schizos/retards by yourself I don't know what to tell you
lindy had a video where he explains that he handmakes and dyes all his identical shirts and rejects mobile phones

Meanwhile, all this british Chad is laying hands on are females.

This, that's why I only watch real historian channels recommended by the history sub. Mostly Afrocentrism youtubers.

I'm fine with being on the left, rich pedophiles deserve the rope, but progressivism is retarded.

>>17854904
Damn, our Heroes are all aryan chad kings.

What do we think about "Modern History TV"? Generic name but that's the big chud who owns the AvP game studio. He just made a fresh video.

My take is that he's like Lindy beige, just talking shit without any sources or citations, and he probably fancies himself medieval nobility. Never says anything nice about Black or Brown people, only white cringe history fanfics.

>>17855462
I only watch history channels approved by Vaush

>>17855077

go watch some more of the unironic mormon sperg lmao

>>17854870 (OP)
Basically the video boils down to I don't like these guys cause they aren't leftists like me. Which you know what, fine. I am just here for the background noise so I don't care.
Honestly this won't actually do anything to these guys fanbases because anyone with a serious interest in history already know you should read academic books, history YouTube is just entertainment. Also calling someone problematic doesn't have the same power it did 10 years ago, he's preaching to the choir since everyone subscribed to him is also a leftist that probably didn't like these guys to begin with. Just watch, in a month short of no one being caught committing a serious moral taboo nothing will happen and this video will be forgotten.

>>17855462
he's just a rich guy who larps as a knight and talks casually about medieval lifestyle
there's nothing bad to say, but there's no 'history' to his vids either

So why is lindybeige one the "wrong side of history"? You can't type the crux of your argument in plain text format? Not going to your bait YT channel.

>>17854904
>His research is articulating his feels for the camera.
So he spends 20 minutes talking about how much he loves a spear, not his theories on how it was used or whatever, nah.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCbD4WBqPg4

This in my view is his best piece of journalism, he found this guy who was a genuine participant in this recent event in history and just let him speak, only interjecting to sort of guide him and make the video interesting for low attention span YT viewers. Jovial and casual like 2 old chaps at the pub. He is genuinely interest in military history but not Walter Mitty or cringe about it and respectful of the fact people are suffering and dying.

>Metatron
>Shadman
who?

>>17855498
Fredda is a proud leftist and there's nothing wrong with him being so (unless you politically disagree with him). You denying it would be more insulting to him.

>>17855504
i don't care about your ecelebs and your culture war

>>17855507
Then why are you on this thread? Your actions speak louder than your words

>>17855511
because it's funny watching americans sperg out over this shit while their country collapsed around them

>collapsed
collapses

>>17855498
Are you blind and deaf?

>>17855513
It's pretty funny because none of the ecelebs mentioned here are Americans. Nor are you judging by your tone or I. Not even sure what to make of this.

Whom does /his/ recommend watching if I want to decolonialize my bigoted perception of history? I don't want to consume racism no more.

>>17855527
if you're not even american and you spend your time sniffing out 'leftists'(itself a meaningless american buzzword that has nothing to do with actual leftist politics) on the internet then i feel bad for you

>>17854870 (OP)
I don't disagree with fredda, but I think everyone and their cat has been well aware that Lindybeige talks complete nonsense for years now, but he's still fun to watch, you watch him for his character, not the information.
The other two belong in 2016 and are best forgotten

The entire channel lacks content with substance. It insists upon itself.

>>17856006
so you hate history and think it's for spotty nerds, just fuck off then

>>17856019
Lindy's channel is more of a hobby than some "professional youtuber" scam cash grab where he has to scrape the barrel for content and stretch videos out to justify more ads

>>17856040
>/his/
>history

>>17856040
I disagree with the many of the opinions of the guy running the channel (Fredda). But regardless of that I really think the channel would do better, or at least present itself more honestly, if he made shorter, individual videos offering an alternative opinion to the channels he picks fights with, rather than going for these long-form character assassination style videos. It is weird because he is trying to show his opinions as empirically superior but offers few viable or similar alternatives to the very people he criticizes.

>>17854870 (OP)
Lindybeige is a just a hobbyist with some opinions on YOUTUBE. God forbi, he's actually really entertaining and I've watched him for years. Also, who just picks out a random video, like the tank video Lindybeige made and then starts quoting some academic textbooks?

>>17854870 (OP)
Lindy rules, idrc about shadman or metatron, but calling these guys weird when you a breadtube grifter is laughable. Yeah they are weird, they are a bunch of autists, same as you. Difference between them and you is that they didn't saddle themselves with a hopeless political cause and instead hard focused their special interest.

>>17856106
Him going after Lindy, at the very least, is just because Lindy actually appears to enjoy what he does independent of clout.

>>17854870 (OP)
>>17854904
Honestly don't see the problem. Shadman is a faggot loser, everybody already knows this (not that much different from Fredda). The other two are essentially just well read hobbyists, there is nothing wrong with that, if you wanted academic research you would be reading a book. Not watching a video from a hobbyist or a grifter.
>>17855462
He's a really wealthy guy who likes the Middle Ages. He is also not exactly some font of wisdom and knowledge on the period since he basically just says shit with a smile.

>>17855498
Hi fredda, you've been seen through sorry, gonna have go be a failure elsewhere

>>17856746
He wants so desperately to be accepted by a buncha dweebs on fucking /his/ of all places. There are like 20 people who actually post here.

>>17855503
>So he spends 20 minutes talking about how much he loves a spear, not his theories on how it was used or whatever, nah.
The point the video is making is that there's a body of research and documented evidence behind why things are the way they are. Lindy doesn't care, he just FEELS for the camera.

Holy shit the Levy in front is just like me... we we're chuds easily fooled by the rich back then, and we're chuds easily fooled by the rich now! Fighting against our own interest!! That's it, I am no longer listening to chud propaganda. Gonna start listening to Afrocentric decolonization REAL history and transition

>>17856106
If you strip away the politics and look at this from a YouTuber point of view, Fredda is just playing the algorithm. Sure, he could make a video on a obscure historical topic he happens to be an expert on but that would get him what....+100k views maximum if he's lucky? Compare this to say him punching up at a bigger history YouTuber, that would net him 3 times the views at the lowest. Drama works, these videos serves as catharsis for people who happen to share His views and rage bait for people who disagree.

>>17857053
>the company explicitly rewards drama
Hmmm.... clearly, this is an utterly neutral event that nobody could've done anything about at all.

>>17856502

Metatron has a degree, but he's trying to make a living here.

Weird how /his/ talks about this Freddy guy like we're all supposed to know who he is

>>17857082

I mean, so do I. But that doesn't make me a scholar.
