I am continuously baffled by the people who think that current events make this generation’s experience uniquely trying. We are in one of the most peaceful, prosperous times the world has ever seen. It’s extreme ignorance or arrogance to believe we have it especially awful.

They did place two large bombs in the cafeteria. They planned to shoot survivors as they came out. The worst act of school violence in US history actually IS a school bombing. 45 deaths in Bath, Michigan in 1927.
@genzforchange
It’s time for other cities to ignore actual problems in their communities in favor of a meaningless resolution they are powerless to enforce? Got it.
Hey everyone, sorry I've been out of action for a year. That's what I get for letting Tom Scott swing me around on an excavator.
Anyway, I'll start making the new video now. It's a 3-parter but I should get part 1 and 2 finished today. In the meantime, watch this.
Nothing beats meeting a celebrity and discovering what a warm, generous, friendly person they are. Also, he's from Ohio which is a bonus. Thanks for being awesome Martin Sheen!
@WhackNicholson
My great grandfather was poor and came from one of the poorest counties in America (and I know all about him) so your statement is objectively wrong.
In 1860, there were no official, government-issued ballots. Voters turned in their own ballots. It's inaccurate to say Lincoln "wasn't on the ballot." It's more accurate to say that the Republican Party didn't bother to run him in Southern states to begin with.
@history_under
I really don't understand how they think this wins anyone to their cause. It just causes a gut reaction within me to immediately oppose them.
Sam Waterson's portrayal of Lincoln is one of the reasons I got into Civil War history. So great to meet him and te him that. He was genuinely excited to hear it.

The chances of becoming a famous YouTuber and/or making a living on YT are much higher than being an astronaut. I don’t see how it’s helpful to spin this as a bad thing.

I’m officially the Albion’s American good luck charm. I fly over for the Cardiff game (my first at the Hawthorns), they score in the first 30 seconds, and now the takeover. Let’s go!!!!!!!
@BlueandGray1864
This is how you know somebody is so blinded by ideology that they tear down any person as clueless who dares to disagree with their pro-Confederacy view of everything.
@simonateba
This is 100% false and ignorant of history. That isn’t at all how elections worked in 1860. Lincoln wasn’t barred from anything in 1860. The Republicans just didn’t bother trying to get votes in states he couldn’t possibly win.
The irony here is that the copyright strike may actually end up driving far more views to my reaction than it otherwise would have had. Huge uptick in click through rate since it went back up this morning.
@AuschwitzMuseum
My great uncle was in the 11th Armored who liberated the main camp at Mauthausen. He told me stories of smelling the bodies burning even when they were over a dozen miles away.
@AltHistCody
They’ve also grown their channels, big enough to where they can hire people to keep it running, and just collect the passive income without having to do all the work
@rjn2002i
And if younger generations want to be heard, they need to act like adults and not spoiled children who aren't getting their way. Many of us are not interested in the opinions of people who deface monuments to WW1 veterans, regardless of the worthiness of their cause.

@USPS
someone in your ranks is a thief. This arrived to me today with the navy pin that was enclosed conveniently removed from the envelope before it was delivered to me. Did no one bother to notice the giant hole cut in the top of the envelope somewhere along the way?
This book writing stuff isn’t for the faint hearted. I started research on the 20th Ohio about a year ago wondering how I’d have enough info to tell their story. Now I’m so overwhelmed with the information I’ve compiled that I may narrow it down and just focus on one company.
YouTube’s ai bots have been demonetizing History channels right and left. They have to appeal and in the meantime lose the ability to earn revenue. Absolutely ridiculous.
My freshman year (at a suburban high school in a town with almost no violent crime) a few seniors were arrested for killing a homeowner who confronted them when they broke into his house.
@insultsrare
Thinking this is somehow uniquely trying is the most millennial thing ever. Someone born in 1910 lived through two works wars, a global pandemic, and a Great Depression by the time they were 35
@RealCynicalFox
Almost all of this is misleading or completely false. One example: look up the nine who supposedly fought and died because of the British. Most didn’t fight, and none died due to British actions. Heck, one was killed in a duel with a fellow American. The nine are Morton,
Doctors who could’ve given President Garfield better care after he was shot:

what is up with this? It has to be a mistake. These guys create fantastic, original content that adds real value to our understanding of history.

We don't usually weigh in on current events. It's not really our place. But things have gotten to a point where we can't be silent any longer. So...
James Garfield would be a top-ten president if he'd lived. And "Die Hard" is a Christmas movie.
We'll accept any consequences.
@TheClassicalCon
He’s 100% right. Just be normal and easily sweep both house of Congress and the White House this fall. Just not sure that’s gonna happen with the likes of Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene as the faces of the party.
A little tired of the constant comparisons of Masters of the Air (or the Pacific) to Band of Brothers. BoB is one of the greatest productions in history. Very few things will measure up. Just because something isn't "as good as" a masterpiece, doesn't mean it can't be
Absolutely blown away that
