The apparent plagiarizing that Internet Historian does is upsetting
It's the cryptofascism that does it for me
Whoa, lol, what is this a reference to?? Holy shit! 🤣🤣🤣 Don't tell me it's just more youtube drama? Jesus, so many intense opinions about the guy. I had no idea he had garnered such a bizarre reputation. And to think, I've been wasting all this time watching his videos twice a year and then getting the fuck on with my life. I guess meta truly will never be not cringe. Lol. Seriously though, what are referencing? Is there some subliminal propaganda sewn throughout his videos that I'm just too dense to pick up on? 😂
If you don't know what its in reference to, that's the point.
Not subliminal, but apparently you are too dense to pick up on it yeah.
If you really need a breakdown of all the Nazism and racist stuff he's done. Here.
https://www.reddit.com/r/youtubedrama/comments/18dotzf/internet_historian_is_a_nazi/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
Lol, a link to a sub literally called youtubedrama. So yes, YouTube meta bullshit. But since you've already roped me in, assuming this is all true, that's fucked up.
Also, you can be informative without being rude, that would have been appreciated so maybe have a little patience next time.
I mean.. you weren't particularly nice in our thread. I get that hearing this sort of news about a favorite content creator is difficult, and the natural reaction is to be defensive and abrasive. I think many of us have been there.
I didn't attack you, I was being hyperbolic, and I was just reacting to the extremity of the accusation. I don't think his videos portray the message that the reddit post accused him of. Not defending him or denying the accusations. I couldn't care less about the guy. From my point of view, he is every kid on the internet pre-y2k. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Not denying, then denying in the next sentence.
The first step of all much grief is denial.
Not sure how me "not caring" about a potential nazi is in any way condoning or whitewashing bigotry. I think you need a dictionary friendo. Lol, the closest thing to grief that I'm getting is from you. Again, couldn't care less, whether or not he is a POS makes no difference to me. I have no dog in this fight. You win. IH = bad. Good job soldier. 🫡
Yeh, it's normal for someone who doesn't care to still be here insisting, stamping their foot that they definitely don't care.
It's not cope.
Sure.

❓❓❓
Care to elaborate?
Ah yeah, hbomberguy had a.. few minutes on this youtuber in his Plagiarism video which laid it out pretty well
https://youtu.be/yDp3cB5fHXQ?si=4USr0IAraziwB-Ko&t=5071
Lol, I mean, okay, sure. Not very significant though. First, I would never have read that article. Second, telling stories chronologically is only a new concept to Quenton Tarantino, the rest of humanity kind of defaults to that. Third, I don't watch IH for his fact based reporting, I don't care if he just read the entire article verbatim and I could care even less if he just made it all up. I think he is good at humor and shitty animations and neither of those are even remotely represented in the OC. So sure, if you say he's a plagiarist, I won't defend it, but maybe you're going to the wrong place if you're going to IH for original and reliable "information".
Lol, I think hbomb needs to get some perspective. He could easily argue that "bIg MoNeY sAlViA lItErAlLy StEaLs OtHeR pEoPlE's CoNtEnT" and he would be 100% simultaneously correct and useless.
Why wouldn't IH just properly reference the article and make clear that the animation was based off it? IH ripped the article off in it's entirety, made a crazy popular video and money off of an author's work, and that's obviously not ok.
Stealing content just.. isn't ok. It's a shitty look for IH
Yeah, a reference would have been nice, sure. But I still think the people that watched that video are NOT interested in reading a longer, unfunny version of stories about dumb people. Conversely, if you were trying to research this story specifically and your source was this video, then maybe the bottom of a cave is the right place for you. Lol. His images are just ripped off stock photos too. So I suppose nothing he does is truly original. Yet at the same time, there is no one like him on YouTube that has the same appeal. So I would say, if you watch his video and then read the article, would you have the same experience? Probably not. He did transform the content. But enough so for you? That's up to the beholder. So again, sure he stole someone's article and they had YouTube remove it. I guess the system works. And I still don't care. He's neither a journalist nor a researcher so who cares? What a weird battle to fight. The fact that anyone has an opinion this intense about something so dumb is just baffling, let alone enough to make a video about it. I still think hbomb needs to chill the fuck out. It's just not that serious, and YouTube has already taken action. So who are you carrying the torch for? You know what's more entertaining than hbomber "taking down" Internet Historian? Any Internet Historian video. I do find it hilarious that his most popular video is the one about IH. So who is milking who here? 😂 I'm just fucking around. You're absolutely right. But it just means nothing to me. I'm sure I'm not alone.
