  1. I stopped reading Cracked over 12 years ago, this was because most of their articles were constantly "men and boys are dumb, women and girls are smart" (imagine insulting the majority of your audience all the time), a few years later I tried reading it again but noticed a lot of racism against Europeans. I also noticed as I got older that basically any "fact" I learned from Cracked would later end up to be complete non-sense or completely debunked. Cracked is pure clickbait with very few information of substance

  2.  @sammylong3704  You completely ignore the fact that history is constantly scrutinised by later historians and new archeological discoveries change the historical narrative all the time. You also completely miss French contributions from the same period. In India the Aryan invasion is only rejected by Aryans and their response is the "Native Aryan" hypothesis which re-writes Aryan history to be "less foreign" (literally stating that Aryans have always been in India yet for whatever reason Aryan languages weren't documented before that period), many Dravidians completely reject the "debunking" of the Aryan invasion theory as downplaying their contributions to ancient India by claiming that Aryans were always the most important people in India. Note that most of India today is Aryan and the dominant historical languages are Sanskrit and Padi, both Aryan languages. Too many historical things happened for the Aryan invasion theory not to be correct.

  3. Yeah, it's like people forget that there is a giant desert between North Africa and Sub-Saharan Africa.

  4. In the European Union this lack of transparency is illegal and actions may not be arbitrary, this means that a class action lawsuit could win.

  5. Yeah, "revenge" flagging.

  6. ​ @dkghost3070 Yes, Slavwashing is an actual thing.

  7. I haven't laughed so hard in some time, she's an unwitting comedian.

  8. ​ @dkghost3070 To be fair, North Macedonians literally claimed that (rather than the Ancient Macedonians were actually Slavs).
    14
  9. 02:25 大 = Dai (Cantonese), Đại (Vietnamese), Dai (Japanese), and Dae (Korean). Mandarin is usually the oddball out.

  10. ​ @PVilarnovo In Taiwan Communism is right-wing and "Conservatism" means being pro-Communist.

  11. They're used to worse, their northern neighbours keep trying to Slavwash Greek history.

  12. I recognise Netflix documentaries on sight, a lot of people I know see the trailers and think that these shows are historical dramas, but I immediately recognise them as documentaries.

  13. People have advocated spelling reform since the 19th century, the Runic alphabet was a popular suggestion from the 19th century, but Parliament struck it down. Likely because it would be extremely expensive to change the spelling in literally every document and it would require a whole new education system, but it is possible and many countries have done it. It's such a shame that many modern English people just see their alphabet as "something quirky" rather than as an actual flaw that might hold people back. Imagine an intelligent child of working class parents that never learned proper spelling, they go to a university to apply and then get rejected because of too much spelling errors, even if the field they wish to enter has nothing to do with grammar and spelling.

  14. 12:35 This higher pain tolerance is actually only present during childbearing and not all women have it, for example highly neurotic women (those who are naturally shy and afraid of things) don't have it, which is actually a horrible evolutionary setback as they are the ones most likely to suffer.

  15. Not if the opponent knows gun-fu.

  16. 12:51 I actually find it interesting how the Kingdom of Kush is underrepresented in Western media, as Nubia was literally a Black version of Egypt.

  17. I'm an Atheist who actively hates religion and I get more offended with this "secular-washing" of society than most religious people I know. We can keep the rites and traditions even if we don't believe, meanwhile there are plenty of "moderate Christians" that want to get rid of religious symbolism (which is a part of our culture) simply because "religion should only be kept to yourself".
    3
  18. 16:50 This is so unfortunately true, I often see media from outside of the Eurosphere and a lot of it is just appropriating European culture and then ignoring their own culture and seeing it as "not modern enough".
    3
  19. I literally stopped reading that websh¡t a decade ago because it really taxes your mental health. Almost everything I "learned" from Cracked turned out to be false.

  20. 09:45 Mandarin is the worst form of Chinese to use for any Chinese derived language, as Mandarin is Jurchen-centric.

  21. Same in the Netherlands.

  22. One thing I sometimes think about is how super-geniuses like Leonardo Da Vinci, Nikola Tesla, Etc. during the stone age advanced their societies, I know that there was no written knowledge so the high I.Q. people haven't had the opportunity to learn as much, but their creativity and ability to make connections must have had some applications during the Stone Age. Intelligent people aren't rare and we aren't different from our Stone Age ancestors.

  23. 09:10 "Pounds confuse me", Italians literally invented Pounds.
    2
  24. 05:00 In Imperial China the nobles hated the wealthy merchants and vice versa

  25. Well, their genetic intelligence was higher due to harsher environments selecting for higher intelligence, but their phenotypical intelligence was lower because they didn't have access to the education and information we have today.
    2
  26. 07:50 To be fair, the word "England" often means the entire U.K. like how "Holland" means the Netherlands, and "Russia" the Soviet Union. Weirdly enough, Ukrainians and Lithuanians had less issues being called "Russian" before the fall of the U.S.S.R. than Scottish people have being called "English" in the U.K.
    2
  27. "Common era" just seems more Eurocentric, it seems that the entire world is somehow "common" to the Christian calendar system.
    2
  28. 10:50 Even Asterix and Obelix does that.
    2
  29. These myths have been common since the 1960's and 1970's and until this year I have literally never met someone who DIDN'T believe them, as someone with only a casual understanding of Ancient Greek culture this actually makes me questions how many other myths I believe without questioning.

  30. 16:50 He subverted the church and then made it serve the state. He was an Occultist. Mussolini on the other hand, while being an Atheist who called religion fairytales did actually respect the Church. Which is a funny contrast between the two.
    2
  31.  @bdrferreira  I never visited that part of Reddit (as far as I can remember) but you'd be surprised how much of modern history teaching is actually based on biases specifically introduced in order to promote an ideology. It doesn't even matter what country it's from and most biases aren't even as obvious as you'd think because you never know what ideology they're promoting, because it could be a very obscure and local ideology specific to the region.
    2
  32. They're not Germans, Germanics. It is like referring to the Anglo-Saxon tribes as "German tribes" rather than "Germanic tribe".
    2
  33.  @josephnebeker7976  But lots of people died as infants and the far majority of males died of warfare in primitive societies. When you're the apex predator the only competition you have are others like you.

  34. 11:30 Remember, most accounts of her were written by men in love with her, I wouldn't be surprised if they exaggerated how intelligent she was. We know that people overestimate their partner's intelligence because humans find it attractive.
    2
  35. 04:00 Before the 1950's there were many right-wing Socialists, the idea that Socialist was excludively a left-wing is a modern thing.

  36. This actually is called prolonged adolescence.

  37. 13:25 I was started just randomly seeing Darth Vader (that Samurai armour).

  38. It's tolerated because it's acceptable to be racist against those of European descent. It's called "repressive tolerance" and it was coined by the U.S. American Marcuse in order to steer society into an anti-White and anti-male direction.
    2
  39. 05:10 For U.S. Americans $ 50.000,- is also pennies, all my U.S. American friends can easily throw away hundreds of thousands of Dollars whenever they want. Even an U.S. American teenager working a minimum wage job earns more than even the wealthiest Swiss bankers. There is a reason why U.S. Americans call us "Europoors".

  40. Italians invent Latin script. French Vikings ruin it in England. Italian man defends their crimes against Italian culture.
    2
  41. The issue is with copyright laws, even a still image that is 1/60th of a video frame is a copyright violation under global law. Either we change the laws or have to suffer through this.
    2
  42. Yeah, people forget that most of America was conquered by essentially knights on horseback with guns in their pockets, but preferred to take out their swords for accuracy.
    2
  43. I think that it's more out of similar circumstances, as Japanese society functioned very similar to Germanic society (Frankish Empire) in many important aspects. Note that between Japan and Frankish Europe (not sure how else to call the countries that mixed Latin culture with Germanic culture) no such systems existed, and knighthood existed in two places which were made up of different countries that were nominally united under an Emperor and Pope (in Japan these two being the same person).

  44. 08:35 For context "Indian" meant "Non-Chinese Asian-Filipino" in modern terms, not people from India or America.

  45. It's called "Gawker" not "Thinker".

  46. My problem with this form of "inclusiveness" is that it wastes an absolute good way to educate the viewers about the different experiences of L.G.B.T.Q.+ people in the past and the hardships unique to the time period and attitudes towards them and just shows today's world projected on the past. This essentially erases the historical need for "Pride" and why "Pride" was important to begin with.

  47. History is written by the literate survivors.

  49. Alphabet could create a separate "Sponsor environment" where creators (I mean "influencers") can be approached by sponsors that register in a system. Unfortunately it would quickly be misused by Alphabet to censor both creators and sponsors.

  50. 06:14 Even a different accent in the same language.

  51. Meanwhile your grand-daughters will probably claim that she was an even greater warrior than any man around her.

  52. Very informative video, though it does spread some misinformation, most particularly you refer to the Viking Age Scandinavian civilisation as "Vikings", but it's perhaps better to refer to Scandinavians as "Norsemen" as Vikings only made up a very small minority of them. It's like referring to all Late Medieval Europeans as "Conquistadors", despite only a handful of Europeans (mostly Castilians) did this.

  53. 03:40 There was nó "Spanish Crown" then, he did it for the Castilian Crown, Spain wasn't a country at the time.

  56. 09:25 Many losers also wrote after wars, especially if they survive.

  57. If they want to use a Sub-Saharan African, ¿Why not just use Nubia? There is very little made about Nubia, but instead of telling new stories they just keep re-telling the same stories but with different casts.
    1
  58. 09:20 This sounds EXACTLY like Bushido, during the age of warfare nobody cared about some code because actual martial strategies were more important, but during the time of peace a more romanticised image of the past was created.

  59. There are unfortunately hackers that all they do is delete old videos for no particular reason. I've seen it several times already.
    1
  60. 15:28 Well, actually monopolised crime reduces violence, Western Sicily which has very little Mafia influence is much more violent than the Mafia-dominated East Sicily. Organised crime monopolises crime and mafia bosses don't want the police so they want as little violence as possible because violence puts them on the public radar.

  61. Occam's Razor doesn't say that the most simple hypothesis is correct, it says that the least assumptive hypothesis is most likely correct. These are very different interpretations and less assumptive simply means the ones that doesn't rely as much on unproven claims as the less likely claims.
    1
  62.  @generationkilled  Yeah, but the bronze age happened first.
    1
  63. 00:12 This isn't "gender equality", this is female supremacy. They basically claim that women were better than men, yet nobody ever calls out female supremacism, it has basically taken over pop science since the late 1980's (and has been found in academia since the 1960's). I am not surprised to see it in history now.
    1
  64. Catholic Church: "We're announcing a crusade to the north." Crusaders: "¿So we're finally attacking the Norsemen?" Catholic Church: "Nope, we'll conquer the Baltic tribes." Actually happened, they had a Crusade against the Baltic peoples and the Teutonic Order annexed the entire region.

  67. I saw the live action film, quite a good one. The actors playing Romans are mostly Italian... Except for the protagonist and the Emperor. The protagonist is a vaguely Italian-looking Japanese man, but the Emperor looks fully Asian, unmistakably so.

  68. 01:38 I don't think that "Yt" means "YouTube"...

  69. 03:00 Wrong, Flammküche is native French pizza, they just don't call it "pizza".

  70. S.W.A.T. is a good example of a police force in full armour, even with covered helmets.

  71. 00:35 Feudal Japan actually didn't exist, the Japanese system wasn't quite feudalism and modern historians if this period do not call it "feudal" anymore.

  72. I had some Chicago pizza in Hanoi and while my wife hates it, it's among the best pizza I've ever had. No idea why New Yorkers are so arrogant about their pizza's.

  73. 18:20 "Sangleys" are the Chinese, to contrast them with "Indians" (Non-Chinese Asian-Filipino's).

  74. I often hear how the YouTube comment sections are "toxic" but I rarely ever see them be toxic, this is actually an example of a toxic comment section.

  75. European Knights and Japanese Samurai primarily used spears and bows and arrows, most pre-modern military forces were spear-based.

  76. I saw the title of this video and how dumb it was and I immediately knew that it was Cracked. Cracked is a click-bait website, almost everything they claim is false but written in a way that someone with no knowledge of the topic might believe it. I remember reading it in my youth and then spending years finding out that basically every little thing I "learned" from Cracked turned out to be false.

  77. 07:30 In Vietnamese historiography the Medieval period ends in 1945. This means that I actually met people born in the Middle Ages. 😂

  78. This is also a generational difference and to some extent social exposure, as a Millennial I grew up watching television where almost every female was depicted as stronger than (almost) every male, the "politically correct" science journals (not actually science, but "pop science") from our youth bombarded us with the superiority of females compared to men constantly, often through misinterpretation of the sources they cite. As a result many of our generation, especially those that didn't have many friends, basically grew up believing that females are superior in every way. We grew up hearing "girls are smarter", "girls are stronger", and "girls can make a change" but nobody ever gave boys compliments unless you're from a few families that did (I only met those much later in life). This generational gap was very clear when talking to older generations, they grew up with different messages so hearing how we were taught sounds like fantasy but they still feel that they need to "compensate for past misogyny" so will continue pushing a lot of this messaging.

  80. I would say that one can take more liberties with mythologies, although it shouldn't be one-sided. I wouldn't mind a White person playing an African god(dess).

  82. 04:15 Literally all of human history, anywhere. Even contemporary Stone Age African tribes wear colourful clothing.

  83. 04:54 Which is ironic considering that U.S. Americans commonly say "Black people are the most homogenous race". It's insulting really. This is what "progressives" tend to say.

  84. 08:55 Bushi actually means "Military scholar" with Bu meaning military and Shi meaning scholar.

  85. You should have mentioned the differences between the short-haired Celts and long-haired Celts. Greek colonists were active in southern Celtica for centuries before the Roman Republic was even a thing, and many Celtic tribes adopted Greek culture and the Romans considered these tribes to be easy to integrate into the Republic because they already had the same culture, style of government, Etc.

  86. Hitler is only considered to be "right-wing" because all the journalists at the time when he was alive were Stalinists, these same journalists referred to the S.D.P. as "social fascists" as didn't differentiate between the S.D.P. and N.S.D.A.P., to them anyone other than the K.P.D. were evil and the only reason they used "fascist" as an insult was because they hated the Italian Revolution and were still salty about it not being a Socialist revolution.

  90. I imagine that gold coins are a bit like € 500,- banknotes, most people I know have never seen them in their lives, some have seen € 200,- but the 500 quid is so care that people can recall the time they saw one better than the first time they've made love.

  93. 12:00 Ariana Grande is significantly darker than a lot of "Black" people I know and she's 100% Italian, so it doesn't JUST refer to skin colour.

  94. 11:35 That sounds EXACTLY like M.M.A.

  95. It's because the people in charge are Baby Boomers who didn't grow up with absurdist television and didn't see people actually believing that every female historical figure was a Kung Fu expert or that every historical European man was a comic book villain.

  100. 14:00 Karate is as Japanese as Hawai'ian things are U.S. American, Karate was created by the Ryūkyūans and originally meant "Way of the Chinese Hand" named after Chinese people, the dominant class of Ryūkyūan society.

  110. I think that one thing people often miss about Woke people is that they quite literally live in their own world and reject our reality, it's like attempting to converse with religious extremists, particularly Young Earth Creationists, they have their own logic and any attempt to show them a world outside of their worldview is met with hostility.
