Basically in terms of storytelling and accuracy, Bugsy should've actually been more like Casino, where Ben Siegel was more like the Nicky Santoro with some Sam Rothstein sprinkled in. Do the movie American Gangster next.

Reagan is the one who sold us out to Hollywood and fortune 500 companies. And destroyed America with his trickle down economics

The northern democrats.... This has made me wonder, if Tennessee didn't vote for the democrat in the 1860 election, were the founders in Pulaski really democrats? I would be interested in the party changes leading up to the civil war and where those people ended up. Were party changes more prevalent in the south as opposed to the north?

Anyone who says history is written by the victors is pushing an agenda

We've all participated in the experience of empire, be it with resistance or as an apologost, as an occupier or occupied, and so on.. We are all actively participating in what will be history if humanity doesn't boil the planet and/or our own future as existing life forms. Therefore there all historians are observant participants to a degree. It's just a matter of their levels of either throughout. I think this also brushes up to the agency in history video of yours i just watched, to which I say, maybe more observations would have been beneficial to improving the (enormous) gaps within the critical thinking skills of those heavily participating in making all of those stupidity lead decisions resulting in destruction, death, and other western empire fuckery. Thanks for all you do to help those of us on our search for a more nuanced less dichotomously eurocentric look at political history.

ABQ native and this was so cool to watch! So much I didn’t know :)

I think we have to acknowledge that it is *impossible* to know what JFK would have done had he lived. Yes, you can blame him for some initial involvement, but saying he would have escalated things in the same way LBJ did is pure speculation. It's also noting that Kennedy's brother, who was his attorney general, later ran for President as an anti-war candidate.

Ia that man @01:57 your dad??? Cause if he is omg thats hard af

Love the cat love over determination

it's very interesting learning about these events when student protests have been such a divisive topic over the last few months. great vid!

As our species tends to do, even sometimes for good reasons, in the 1950s, the then divided power market-dominant West & unified-power state dominant Communist polities were contending worldwide, tho the most populous arena was SE & S Asia, in particular Indonesia & India. That contest was tilted capitalist by a major, mass murderous, & successful military coup, toppling a heavily Communist sympathetic, civilian republic in 1965. Apparently, US Indochina involvement had begun as a backstop, 2ndy to Indonesia,m; & had JFK goitten a 2nd term or RFK a 1st, might have led to an agreement like the one that the Kennedy Bris had made to avoided Nuclear War over Cuba in 1962. However, LBJ followed by Nixon, tried to push their advantage deeper into Asia with mixed results. While, Indo-China stayed Red or State-Capitalist, India an even bigger Market prize, tetering between state & corporate rule moved toward markets, & then China's state rulers vastly grew its economic power while retaining political command. There's much more to say, but this seems a fair, if initial & partial, thumbnail outline...

Race is indeed a ridiculous social construct & equally ridiculous, are man made borders being created historically, to both separate & label varying European/global ethnic groups. RACISM....A serious "disease" of the human mind & one that must be dismantled & eliminated, as much as is humanly possible, even if not fully (as will never be fully conquered), but still, is worth our combined efforts, no matter the level of complexity & difficulty faced.

Fascinating video and sorry its been a while. Don't know if it would be based on a true story but I once made a puppet show about historiography (with musical numbers) which compared agency, circumstance and a variety of overarching threads. Its interesting for me to see how actual historians operate the historical method and of course the bonus of King Richard providing a Royal Audience to the video.

John Brown terrified the slave owners and their corrupt society. Why? Because they knew that their own economic system was unscrupulous and perverse. Also, please don’t sing. Your cat knows. 😂

Love to hear your thoughts on the book 'Determined' by Robert Sapolsky. Would be a great crossover of domains

5:24 - he looks like one of those medieval jesus paintings where the two halves have a different expression.

Fact....ALL humans ancient ancestors originate from Africa, the cradle of human civilization, some 60,000 to 90,000 years ago & this has been both archaeologically & scientifically proven/verified & certainly according to current science. Variations in human skin shades/color, are adaptive traits/adaptive responses that correlate closely with geography and the sun's ultraviolet (UV) radiation. As early humans moved into hot, open environments in search of food and water, one big challenge was keeping cool. By the time early humans arrived within Europe, new science clearly states, they still had "darker" skin shades & most had lighter eye shades, but not always. Eventually, their skin shades grew lighter, so that their skin could absorb more Vitamin D & why did this happen? Because within regions with wee sunshine, nature helped human skin & our human skin (our largest organ), had to develop a way, to make Vitamin D absorption more fluid/easy. A paler skin shade did just this. It was more readily able to absorb Vitamin D. This paler skin, decided by nature, had/has absolutely no bearing on "true" human & so called, racial superiority, as many so falsely perceive/believe. In much hotter & sunnier climates, ie: Africa, the opposite is true, albeit, even within Africa, there are many Africans with lighter or even pale skin shades. Ie: Specifically, within North African ethnic groups, specifically within African tribes & within those from South Africa & of "mixed" ethnicity, meaning, part African & part European. The genetic changes apparent in worldwide populations, include a "decrease" in both overall body size and brain size, as well as an obvious reduction in both jaw & tooth proportions. Regional populations have also evolved different physical & genetic characteristics, but, "only" in response to varying climates & lifestyles. Basically, there is a REAL science behind human skin shades & all human variances/physical characteristics. I think we should also note here, that we should NOT LABEL/BOX humans from varying continents & varying ethnic groups, as "all" being of the exact & same skin shade & why? Because within every continent, there are countless skin shades, from the very lightest to the very darkest & yes, this includes Europe too. For example, I have many friends from every continent & I see them. I know that not ALL Africans are simply "black" as almost always labelled within the US & not all peoples from other minority groups are to be labelled as brown or black, (not that there's anything wrong whatsoever with darker skin shades), but their skin shades vary greatly, from the palest to the darkest, from North, South, East & West. Even within the "same" ethnic group, you may well see "variances" in skin shades & most definitely, when looking @ very "ethnically diverse" populations globally. For eg: Many ethnically diverse peoples possess skin shades from the palest to a darker skin shade & also, there are many Asians, from South Asia, South & SE Asia, who are actually paler than many Europeans. There are many non-Europeans, or many non-fully Europeans, who possess much finer facial features too & this includes both full blooded ethnic groups globally & humans of mixed ethnicity. Also, NOT ALL Africans possess "thick & heavy" facial features, as so commonly believed. There are countless Caucasians too, who actually possess much thicker facial & nasal features. We see both refined & thicker facial features, within "every" single continent & not "only" within Europe/the Caucasus. On a personal note I must add, that I saw the most beautifully facial/bodily boned structures across Africa. True & natural beauty, is NOT just a Caucasian/European thing. I think of the beauty of countless, Ethiopian, Kenyan, Somali & Sudanese women/men within Africa. I travelled throughout Africa, Pakistan, the Middle East & French Polynesia & I met countless, beautifully faced & statuesque framed women & men. The African women have incredible facial bone structure & are so naturally beautiful, so for a global belief, that "only" Caucasian/European peoples are naturally beautiful is indeed, very flawed/untrue. Fact.... Mixed genes make for healthier humans, just as when cross breeding dogs. This makes for a healthier pet. It's a real wake up call when we go to Africa & we meet, face to face, such beautiful persons & we come to realise, that the Western peoples & media have been so very wrong, in their preferential treatment & judgement of humans, the one's who don't look like them. Finally, it's very interesting to note, that the "one drop rule" that existed/exists within the US, deems anyone with the tiniest amount of African ancestry, as "black", yet this sounds absurd, because it's not factually based & interestingly, doesn't exist within any other global country. For eg: A person of "mixed" ancestry who went to France & other European regions during segregation or even after, would not be deemed as "black" by locals & especially if their "mixed" skin shade was of a fairer complexion, thus, the individual could state what they wanted to say they were & that, was their absolute human right. They weren't "categorised, boxed & labelled" as countless were & are within the US.

Kansas and Missouri hate each other because they have to share Kansas City. Missouri's is bigger but Kansas got the naming rights

👋Hi there, A new subscriber here. I think you're a very intelligent & very knowledgeable man & I thank you personally, for bringing so much of the US's "true" history to light. The US, (as in all other Western countries), is laced with dark & painful stories & many "intentionally" hidden stories too. I personally think this is very shameful behaviour. It's a well known fact, that many will go to great lengths, to cover up/hide/deceive the public from knowing specific "truths", to suit their own personal narrative/s. And, to continue "promoting" their chosen/well worded mission statements, or whatever it is, that they're wanting to continually promote & spread, even when it's blatantly untrue. Your research is deep, your many findings are enlightening & for many from minority groups, is much appreciated. Finally, your wee pussy cat😺is so sweet & yes, cute! Gentle pats to the wee furry one. Thank you, for sharing & for always properly educating!

Backdoored in the presidential election of 1887??? All but ended reconstruction!!!

5:22 The author is Isaac Asimov you illiterate swine! Foundation Series. Good day sir! Edit: Yes, I wrote this before continuing the video. He’s still wrong though. Why not do a voice over?

I think technology is a major driver of history. For instance, I think the internal combustion engine invented the automobile and the airplane. The early internal combustion engines produced about 1 hp per 100 lbs of engine. This was not good enough for anything other than stationary use or use in boats. But because those two purposes alone were sufficient to guarantee widespread use, the technology had the opportunity to advance. By the time the hp to weight ratio dropped into slightly more than 12 lbs per hp, automobiles became a real possibility along with crude airplanes. Likewise, I believe that improvements in steam technology made the showdown over slavery in the USA all but inevitable.

i like when the redditor shows up you play „ain’t i right“ kazoo cover

"I bet you can't make a history of the US without going into depth about the Bushes Roosevelts, Coolidge, Hoover, Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Nixon, Ford, Carter, or Reagan " "YOU'RE ON"

And I thought it was between Cali and Tejas...these 2 hate each other. 😡

I love all my kitties too. Such sweet little fur balls ❤❤❤

Is there a playlist with those 5 concepts? I looked but didn't see one.

NM 2 / TX 0

Thank you TCH for your informative report on the Mexican - US border. Sadly over 70% of the world's addicts are from American - billions are made on both sides of the border. Companies that hire the illegal are rarely in trouble. Also, some 500,000 Latinos fought in WWII. A great book ''Among the Valiant'' by historian Raul Morin writes of the twenty plus Medal of Honor recipients of WWII and Korea.

You do a good job of summarizing what's referred to as "vulgar Marxism" but not, imho, the way Marx actually wrote about history. Marx's materialist analysis is _precisely_ what you refer to in the very next bit about sociology, being about how _large groups_ (particularly socioeconomic classes) behave. The bit about "voters voting against their interests" is a line trotted out by shitlibs, _not_ Marxists. I wonder how one could have read _The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte_ and come away with this take on Marxist history.

I’ve never noticed Texas or seen em as intimidating. Throw a bud light and a White claw and they’ll go fetchin it… NM? We got real cowboys, real outlaws, we chase our Uranium Water with Pendleton Whiskey, & got the best Chile, the best Mexican and Native cultures. 🔥🔥 . . And we aren’t required to run mud flaps on our trucks 🤣🤣💀. No I’m playin… I dig em both. Friends all over Texas and worked all over Texas.

Really like this video. Nothing is ever 100% one thing or unbiased. That's why I think it's important to get your information from different sources. Even something like the specific word an author chooses to title an event can change the entire perception of a work.

Modern propaganda is less to bring in new believers and more to solidify the believers they already have. No democrat or leftist would take any of this seriously, but someone who's already been swayed by trump or the maga crowd this would be a sort of justification to not change their beliefs or behavior, actual facts be damned. Best comparison I can think of is putting off yard work. You would have to stop what you're doing, get up, and set aside a few hours to work out in the (ever warming) heat. Then you look at your phone and see that it's supposed to rain today. It doesn't matter that it's a 20% chance or it wouldn't start for another 5 hours, those are just inconvenient truths. Now you can put it off until tomorrow. (yes, I'm saying all republicans have political ADHD, fight me)

Southwest American history drinking game! take a shot whenever someone ignores Mexican laws and sovereignty (two if they get offended when Mexico responds negatively)

Not really related, but can I ask you this: is there any overlap between fascism and communism? I've heard its common for people to claim that the far-right in america is honestly closer to communism than the left is, despite their accusations. I thought though, that to be fair, perhaps there is some overlap between the two? They are both populist movements that originated around the game time. I tried to ask this on stack exchange a couple years back, but it got deleted for 'asking about current politics'. So, the history of fascism and communism is 'current events'? Wtf? Of course, I know team youtube probably won't let you make a video about that, but I still would like to know an answer to this. All you've said in a video about communism is that its not easily defined, which obviously doesn't help me much...

I absolutely love the lessons offered here. The history is detailed, and relevant to decisions made today. Keep up the great work. Thank you for all the hard work and research. Oh yeah….super entertaining too. I love seeing your little buddy, the kitty. Gotta be the coolest “history cat” on RUclips !

Bonus kitty!

Great talk, Cypher. ❤ Having majored in history myself, it's academics like you that *keep* me an academic.

Whel tenancy Evan presume action is a product of stims, Just stims that are imposable to now about.

Great Video !

Well, the story is being told by the Devil, himself. So, of course he’s saying you should have sympathy for him. He’s saying, I may have given you the idea to do these things, but it’s not my fault you actually did them.

I really enjoyed this movie

In a book titled "Two thousand miles on horseback" 1867 the writer James F. Meline, mentioned he rode from Santa Fe to Albuquerque. He wrote that it was a moslty wasted trip with just mud huts surrounded by pigs and chickens. He was glad to return to Santa Fe. The railroad arrived in 1880 and things changed.

Thanks!

Great video Mexico is just an exaggerated version of US politics since we where controlled by them for so long 😂

You don’t have to be a Marxist to recognize that some people "vote against their own best interest." Especially in the US, where one party's economic platform is to cut taxes for the wealthy in the hope that it "trickles down."
