I’m on youtube a bunch during the day. Oftentimes I’ll have some video playing alongside a game I’ll be playing, or just having it on when driving so I can listen to mostly audio based vids.

Lately, youtube has been taking a swing at all my favorite history folks. Armchair Historian, The Great War, a few other smaller guys got demonetized, often with no reason stated. I can’t really imagine what they’re doing wrong. These folks keep things professional, clean, and (most importantly) don’t fall into the revisionist chud history category with polandballs and other alt right nonsense.

Meanwhile a whole lot of other stuff with a lot less value retains its monetization. A lot of these guys are planning to do their own videos offsite, and luckily they’re smart enough to ignore their chuddy fans who keep suggesting garbage dumps like Bitchute. (Seriously why does internet+history bring out the chuds no matter the era?)

Anyway thanks for reading my stupid serious post.

I'm not even a gun nut but hickok45, taufledermaus and gun Jesus are all awesome and should get paid

Is hickok45 demonetized too? I cant keep track because I have Youtube Red/Premium whatever. I dunno what his personal politics are, but he manages to hit a balance between cool chill guns uncle and professional. His video on weapons safety for beginners is fantastic.

Starting to hate Youtube at this point because I have a lot of respect for the dudes who are trying to teach laymen about things they wouldn't care about otherwise. I guess WatchNebula is an alternative site for history folks getting run off YouTube. More of an education/nonficiton focus. Dunno if this will die in the crib or become anything, but some cool channels like RealEngineering, FeatureHistory, and TierZoo (a huge guilty pleasure of mine) are on there.

Yeah I started doing this a while back to preserve funny videos I knew were going to be axed. It’s worked out pretty well and avoids the problem of trying to find out what video was in my liked playlist because YouTube also removes the title of the deleted video.
