  1. Stalin: I'm from Georgia sweet Georgia and the history books unfold muh As a messed up mothafucka bent in the mind

  2. There's nothing sad about it. Puyi was a horrible person
    101
  3. There is no debate she was guilty and caught red-handed by the investigation. But the legends of her cruelty of course will be exaggerated as time passes

  4.  @mariano98ify  didn't know anything? Nah. That's no excuse for how he behaved in his adult life and during his time as "emperor" of Manshukuko. The simple fact that he boiled alive a new born baby because his wife cheated on him means he deserves the deepest circle of hell. He was very much aware of his actions

  5. "Who else but Bismarck?"

  6. Only active in piracy for 2 years but has achieved historical immortality some 300 years after his birth. Simply amazing

  8.  @historiculgeomocule5569  without any question Mao Zedong was much worse. About 14 million times worse in terms of death toll. But Puyi still is a terrible person and it was a very sad way to end the imperial Chinese government.

  9.  @mariano98ify  I can chill he's now dead which means he can't continue his behaviour. But he had chances to change and develop empathy he just never took them. Such as with his wet nurse, she actually did check and correct his behaviour a few times he just never continued to heed her wisdom as he aged. He only ever practiced at humanist behaviour when in his late years. Polarising or not he is history and as such deserves to be remembered. I highly recommend you read his autobiography as it is one of the few times we actually get a chance to read about the life of a Chinese emperor directly from said Chinese emperor.

  11. Geezus poor guy loving and doting mother dead, and abandoned by his father no wonder he went they way he did

  12. Mel Fisher was also a HUGE inspiration to another budding marine biologist whom you may have heard of named Stephen Hillenburg
    12
  13. That's such a shame, if the balkanites could just fucking unite under a single national identity like Germany did in the 1870s they could have been a major power
    11
  14. Basically the American Marcus Aurelius it's really sad he never got a chance to put it to use And we can only wonder at what might have been
    11
  15. Because of paternal instinct When you are a parent you truly do want to try to make the best for your child But since the fact that Marcus Aurelius had attempted to use his friends as advisors for his son after his death is an indication that he was aware of his son's faults and tried one last time to provide wisdom for his son

  16.  @Seele2015au  you can't praise a dictatorship just because they have a female head of state

  19. Up until 1650 Cromwell was pretty justified in his actions after the business in Ireland however not at all
    8
  20. 16:53 He DID WHAT?!! TO A NEWBORN BABY?! OH HELL NO! Whatever sympathies, reasons, or excuses you would want to make up for Puyi's behaviour they are completely destroyed by this act alone. His Humanity is completely revoked.

  25.  @muscularcatholicism mate im not downplaying his accomplishments in his later life im just amazed that he had to experience that so early in his life

  26.  @satoshiketchump  agreed, also would love to see a video of the last Heshemite kings of Arabia before the Saudis kicked them out and Saudi Arabia became its own nation

  27.  @tbeller80  no not yet, the Emperor and the Praetorian guard didn't really start bullying the senate into compliance until around the time of Nero

  28. He literally faced off against facist soldiers in ww2 im not surprised

  36.  @somethinglikethat2176  nope, Augustus called himself princeps meaning he saw himself as a MEMBER of the senate
    4
  37.  @tbeller80  no, the dictators like Sulla, and all the way untill Caesar did indeed bully the senate But Agustus became a member of it, he didn't abolish it's authority, he just took office of all positions, Tribune of the People, Consul, and Dictator, making his power almost absolute

  41.  @СтефанВ-н4и  He killed an innocent woman the wife of the archduke he is not a hero for that act alone
    4
  42.  @xxxxxJAYMILLZxxxxxxx  well also remember that the US is the US so it makes sense that they would prioritize their own history with lots of details and quickly gloss over the history of others, and every nation does this Meaning if you want better detailed accounts of history you'll have to look elsewhere that what is the bare minimum of mandatory schooling, typically higher education such as college or university

  43. Never EVER use the genealogy services. I don't mean that it wasn't great the bastard got justice but now the family of the disgusting bastard will forever be judged by society for sins that they had nothing to do with

  45. Well.... the circumstances were more dire 🤔 The historical issue came with a near guarantee of death. And from that? YES! do whatever you can With our current issue and a fairly high rate of survival....it's more difficult to convince the entire population to commit to mandated sanitary practices As they view it as an attack on their personal freedoms, moreso than a means of disease/death prevention

  46.  @inesolujic2534  I know hence that's why it's sad 😭😭😭 I'd rather have loved to call myself Yugoslav than Croatian

    3
  53.  @СтефанВ-н4и  doesn't matter he killed an innocent with his attempt to kill a different person, for that he is damned in my eyes and he always will be Had he only struck down the archduke i might be a bit more understanding, but unbeknownst to his future assassin, the archduke was very sympathetic to the cause this young man supported and was attempting reformative action It just goes to show that all of WW1 beginning, middle and end was very much a tragedy

  54. And much like the name Adolf of the 20th century, the name Oliver saw a huge plummet in usage from the 17th century onwards only being revived in usage after 200 years in the 19th century

  57. Careful buddy.... TR absolutely can be criticized especially in regards towards his eagerness to engage in hostilities abroad Regarding the Caribbean nations and how TR was a king in all but name, disregarding their own systems of government to get what he wanted Probably the best example of this was the various "Banana Republics" with TR approving the use of military force to overthrow nations for the benefit of an American fruit company

  61.

  81. Agreed, marine salvage law is very clear on ownership rights when it comes to finding shipwrecks But the government will always attempt to collect a piece of anything, because if you literally find yourself a large amount of literal gold you didn't need to pay a tax on it And that's a huge loss of income as far as the government is concerned

  88. I'm amazed that the system of the Res Publica that the Romans launched in the ancient world lasted a pretty good 500 years before it became crashing down and replaced by an Empire Not many Republics would survive that long in the ancient world heck some of them don't even survive that long in the modern one

  95. I still blame him he set the standard for the horrible trends of media in his life But at the same time I do admit I admire his self-made resilient nature and can do attitude, it takes guts to come to a brand-new county not even speaking the language and having barely any money and yet still making a living is very impressive, there's a reason why so many people still do it even today when they immigrate to the US Especially back then when the very idea of government safety nets and social security were not even a thing

  96.  @lucianjones4727  it doesn't, but it's common to assume so since many vocal conservatives are very quick to defend the American right of arms ownership Honestly just having any self preservation instinct or self defense item should be maintained no matter what your circumstances or politics.

  113. It needs to be said that Imperial Japan had the US listed as the Enemy #2 only Russia was the number one enemy since 1922. It also need to be said that Roosevelt did have Intelligence of the Pearl Harbor attack but he needed to sacrifice in order quell the rampant pacifism after the "war to end all wars" and push the nation towards battle. It's exceptionally deceitful and it should be remembered but Roosevelt did see further ahead with the state of the world.

  118. Yet as impossible for it to seem, he really did improve his quality of life. He found what he had always wanted, a wife, children, house and social acceptance. It seems completely asinine to attempt something like this today but in the end James Dresnok got what he wanted he just walked a very peculiar path to get it. I don't recommend others imitate his actions however. The DPRK in 1960 is far different than what it is today

  125. I agree, it's far better to reveal the faults of a man to help humanize him I respect MLK jr more knowing that he struggled with adultery all his life despite him claiming to be a man of God and also his unknowingly use of plagerism on his theological dissertation And I also respect Mandela more because he suffered consequences for having advocated for the use of scumbag terror tactics such as child soldiers in resisting the S. African regime And yet once he got out of prison he rescinded his support for such tactics and helped bridge the gap as best he could between the two groups w/o violence Presenting these faults helps with the idea that men even good ones, can struggle. It the dumbfuks that think 1 fault is more than enough to simply erase all the success they gained in their life

  141. No I don't think any Americans are saying that just they don't like Woodrow Wilson that was probably one of the worst and most racist presidents the US has ever had I mean you can say whatever you want about Donald Trump but it's on record that Trump has said he does not stand for and has denounced white supremacist movements and if you want to believe that's a lie fine But Woodrow Wilson was one of the worst in that regard he openly opposed the women's rights movements and women's right to vote and any feminist movements in general as well as his meeting with the KKK in the White House and even went and tried to push more of the kkk's propaganda and message throughout his personal life

  143.  @antimatter4733  Allow me to be as civil as I can through text It's not not attack on you but I'm genuine curious if you have this information regarding the long-term complications of our current issue. I would very much like to read it and gain a better understanding of it You don't have to confuse me with the rest of the people you've been chatting with the comments. I've seen some of them and they are rude where it's not warranted or needed I'm more than happy to be respectful and civil, and let evidence speaks for itself rather than me speaking on behalf of the evidence But YES, the individual in the historical issue was definitely in a more dire situation regarding health than compared today as they were still learning of medical sciences NO, you don't need any % of the world population to die to effectively combat a health issue provided your measures are effective YES, people are unfortunately taking advantage of this to promote selfish political policy rather than humanitarianism. The mere fact that borders are closed across the world is without a doubt in my mind making all those individuals and policy makers who dislike migration across national borders: India - Bangladesh Haiti - Dominican Republic China - North Korea US - Mexico Mexico - Guatemala Do the crab rave dance, thanks for reading I look forward to your reply

  145. Well remember Hitler thought that German speaking Austrians were "allies" in his sick perverted world view So I am not surprised at his disdain for the young teenager As for me I also dislike the teen but for different reasons 1) I hated at how he became so obsessed with politics that he was radicalised 2) I hated how he willingly and openly used and justified violence to secure his conviction in his political beliefs 3) Most damning of all IMO was he killed an innocent, the archduke's wife Sophie

  153. Andrew Johnson Andrew Jackson had already left the presidency a good while ago, in the late 1830s Funny enough Andrew Jackson was also prepared to go to War over the much larger question of Federal law overruling State law and States Rights to disregard Federal law or a State right to secede This was regarding South Carolina who was trying to circumnavigate tariffs imposed by the government of Washington DC on the Southern US states and was threatening with secession in 1832 a good 30 years before the US civil war At the time however when South Carolina was threatening none of the other US states in the south backed up South Carolina And the crisis was averted by Jackson's administration passing both the "Force Bill" (which allowed for use of US military force if states attempted nullification and refused to pay tariffs) and Henry Clay's "Tariff Bill of 1833" (which reduced the tariffs to rates set earlier in 1816) Sadly though the crisis and War itself was avoided the idea of Nullification and States Rights were propelled into the national discourse and discussion And were later the reason why South Carolina again threatened and then followed through with the threat of secession being the first US state to do so

  171. Also the Vikings weren't really keen to start an age of discovery Navigation devices at sea either weren't invented or they weren't commonly used and restricted to the specific culture; (granted by 900ad the Arabs already had been using the Kamal for over 300 years which let them calculate their latitude and sail out of sight of land) (Polynesians used a unique system of sticks tied into various positions by thread to map out ocean currents and islands that one could reach if they followed those same currents) Norsemen, however relied heavily upon the stars for navigation and did a system of island hopping, staying insight of land and traveling from island to island Secondly, Why settle all these colonies so far away from Europe and Central Asia where the Vikings figured all the spoils and treasure was? The would be colonies had poor soil, resources are scarce and the travel towards them is difficult, making them just not worth it Only criminals or the most desperate would even consider it

  191.  @htoodoh5770  In England Oliver was a common medieval name, however it became rare after the 17th century because of the military commander Oliver Cromwell, who ruled the country following the civil war. The name was revived in the 19th century, perhaps in part due to the title character in Charles Dickens' novel 'Oliver Twist' (1838), which was about a poor orphan living on the streets of London.

  193. "Freed" is pretty subjective here as many of the slaves were once again forced to work the dangerous and deadly sugar factories albiet at a meagre wage supplied to them, and because of this they heavily resented Louverture for it. Also in the aftermath of becoming an independent state in 1804 the Hatian government under the orders from Jean-Jacques Dessalines committed genocide by killing all of the white French Creoles on the island every man, woman, and child. Only sparing women who agreed to forced marriage to non white men. The killings were applied even to the Creoles who fought with them against the French and were overall sympathetic. He was quoted as saying, "For our declaration of independence, we should have the skin of a white man for parchment, his skull for an inkwell, his blood for ink, and a bayonet for a pen"
