Maybe there is some episode about Wilson that I'm missing, but in the most recent WW1 shows his message seemed to be that Wilson was a huge douchebag, but not overtly evil. He specifically runs down why the various "Wilson was an evil warhawk" stances were dumb.

If somehow you not knowing the difference between racism and bigotry or misogyny and sexism somehow makes me a pedo in your dumb brain, you should probably get off the internet more. adebisi lives posted:So if Sam Harris advocates profiling "Islamic looking people" it's the same to you as him leaving a burning cross in some black guy's front yard?

I was checking out the History of China podcast and it seems as though half a dozen or so episodes are missing from the main site, itunes, and the rss feed. Where are they? Were those numbers just never occupies or did something happen to get them taken down?

So the pattern of posts was people discussing whether or not Duncan was pro-monarchy or at least anti-revolutionary. Icantfindaname then comments that he didn't seem to be particularly libertarian either, which was relevant because it is another anti-revolutionary ideology. It even came with a little disclaimer at the end where icant acknowledged libertarians weren't really pro-monarchy either, just anti-revolutionary. Then we have a few pages of people being angry at icant's sorta poorly worded first post, and instead of realizing he might need to explain icant decides that this is a clear sign that everyone in the thread is a libertarian. Is this what we've got here?

I have to also recommend the Myths and Legends podcast. It should probably be added to the OP given it's all about pulling tales form history and presenting them to a modern audience.

Well Gran Columbia is going to be the next topic, and that's something I have next to no familiarity with. I'm not looking forward to the big break after that though.

There appears to be a podcast called the History of China podcast as opposed to the thread recommended China History podcast. Is this similarly named but distinct podcast any good?

That's the general vibe I got. He only really has two pet issues and neither of them really both me, those being not liking lenient sentences for violent crime and hating when people don't believe women who report violent crimes.

They're fine, but there's no need to buy them through the promo. They're just normal razors at the department store but half the price of other razors.

There were two “Reigns of Terror,” if we would but remember it and consider it; the one wrought murder in hot passion, the other in heartless cold blood; the one lasted mere months, the other had lasted a thousand years; the one inflicted death upon ten thousand persons, the other upon a hundred millions; but our shudders are all for the “horrors” of the minor Terror, the momentary Terror, so to speak; whereas, what is the horror of swift death by the axe, compared with lifelong death from hunger, cold, insult, cruelty, and heart-break? What is swift death by lightning compared with death by slow fire at the stake? A city cemetery could contain the coffins filled by that brief Terror which we have all been so diligently taught to shiver at and mourn over; but all France could hardly contain the coffins filled by that older and real Terror—that unspeakably bitter and awful Terror which none of us has been taught to see in its vastness or pity as it deserves.

SlothfulCobra posted:Like from his podcast, it sure sounds like the French Revolution went through a lot of change with pretty minimal violence they got all the way through the Estates General and establishing a new elected government of France, but after a point there were basically coups masquerading as popular action to purge political enemies, and from that point on things spiraled away from democracy or any real increases in equality. Mike Duncan's also pretty clear in his statement that the war with Austria was in no way self-defense.

Eggplant Ronin posted:Are there any decent Mexican history podcasts in English? I want something longform and dense if possible. Every one-off I hear on the topic seems to only cover the basics of Mesoamerican societies and/or conquistador atrocities. Eggplant Ronin posted:I bounced off the show before but I'll give those Revolutions eps a try. I'm just hoping it's more than a White academic detailing how and when my ancestors got hosed.

Everyone who is actually considering voting for Trump is already a dedicated cultist. So wouldn't that activity be better spent trying to get people to not give up on voting entirely?

People who both listen to the politics spin-off of a dad history podcast and watch Tucker are going to be very online. In fact they believe Trump will force their children to unblock them on facebook.

China didn't kill Puyi. All their issues came from people being needlessly aggressive toward him after he was made a normal citizen. And that was after he sided with the Japanese to reinstate a puppet monarchy in Manchuria.
