Massive respect for putting king Leopold II next to these other monsters, he deserves it
Çurçill too
As a history major I’ve done many essays and studies on Leopold it astounds me how he isn’t a household name
The history on that one is mainly the fault of the rubber companies rather than Leopold.
For sheer brutality, Leopold definitely wins (though the African chiefs were also extremely brutal against each other's tribes).
@@eridjonavdulaj2386 Churchill 100% did some terrible and monstrous things he wasn't a dictator nor pure evil like some of these others.
Leopold II: No no, you misunderstand. The people aren't free, I got the state for free."

To be fair to those dictators.
I've found this article worth sharing. I'm surprised Ukraine is on the list. What was the coup about?
In an attempt to quantify U.S. warmaking, I’ve copied below lists from these sources:
William Blum: America’s Deadliest Export: Democracy
Dr. Zoltan Grossman: A Century of U.S. Military Interventions
James Lucas: U.S. Has Killed More Than 20 Million People

Here is Blum’s list of U.S. attempts to overthrow governments (* indicates success):
China 1949 to early 1960s
Albania 1949-53
East Germany 1950s
Iran 1953 *
Guatemala 1954 *
Costa Rica mid-1950s
Syria 1956-7
Egypt 1957
Indonesia 1957-8
British Guiana 1953-64 *
Iraq 1963 *
North Vietnam 1945-73
Cambodia 1955-70 *
Laos 1958 *, 1959 *, 1960 *
Ecuador 1960-63 *
Congo 1960 *
France 1965
Brazil 1962-64 *
Dominican Republic 1963 *
Cuba 1959 to present
Bolivia 1964 *
Indonesia 1965 *
Ghana 1966 *
Chile 1964-73 *
Greece 1967 *
Costa Rica 1970-71
Bolivia 1971 *
Australia 1973-75 *
Angola 1975, 1980s
Zaire 1975
Portugal 1974-76 *
Jamaica 1976-80 *
Seychelles 1979-81
Chad 1981-82 *
Grenada 1983 *
South Yemen 1982-84
Suriname 1982-84
Fiji 1987 *
Libya 1980s
Nicaragua 1981-90 *
Panama 1989 *
Bulgaria 1990 *
Albania 1991 *
Iraq 1991
Afghanistan 1980s *
Somalia 1993
Yugoslavia 1999-2000 *
Ecuador 2000 *
Afghanistan 2001 *
Venezuela 2002 *
Iraq 2003 *
Haiti 2004 *
Somalia 2007 to present
Honduras 2009
Libya 2011 *
Syria 2012
Ukraine 2014 *
[arguably, Syria 1949 needs to be added to this list. -DS]
The above list does not include numerous coups by U.S.-trained fighters, such as (other than Honduras) those discussed here: “from Isaac Zida of Burkina Faso, Haiti’s Philippe Biamby, and Yahya Jammeh of The Gambia to Egypt’s Abdel-Fattah el-Sisi, Mohammad Zia-ul-Haq of Pakistan, and the IMET-educated leaders of the 2009 coup in Honduras, not to mention Mali’s Amadou Sanogo.”
These are just in very recent years, by no means a complete list, though the Haiti coup referenced here was earlier than the one included in the list above.
We might want to the list of U.S.-backed coups: Venezuela 2018. We should certainly add Bolivia 2019. Also Venezuela 2019. And Venezuela 2020. And it seems we need to add New Zealand 1987. Also Guinea 2021, Mali 2021, Mauritania 2008, Mali 2012, Egypt 2013, Burkina Faso 2015, Mali 2020, etc.
We might want to add to the list of coups by U.S.-trained troops: these from a 2022 report in The Intercept: “Since 2008, U.S.-trained officers have attempted at least nine coups (and succeeded in at least eight) across five West African countries, including Burkina Faso (three times), Guinea, Mali (three times), Mauritania, and the Gambia.” Also in 2022, Democracy Now reported on these coups by U.S. trainees just in Africa: Chad 2021, Mali 2021, Mali 2020, Guinea 2021, Sudan 2021, Bukina Faso 2022.

I am from Congo and I understand how that feels but the way my fellow Congolese people were treated as inhumane
@@maryrukundo2907 Can you explain the issue the Congolese people have with the Tutsi people? Because i can't understand the reason behind the atrocities i have seen online.
As someone who is part congolais I’m glad you added the history of the Congo
King Leopold was a monster I wonder why we don't hear too much about him in school but they focus on Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini, and Mao.
Because he is from West. You cant hear much about their crimes and genocides.
@@djordjemarkovic1389both Mussolini and Hitler were from western countries
@@djordjemarkovic1389yes of course Germany and Italy are neighbor of China and Vietnam
@@poomann Belgium is not as popular and didnt really play much in world politics aside from being invaded. Also it depends on who is writing the narrative. You never hear about America and their incredible war crimes (seriously look up the my lai massacre in vietnam) because most of the times theyre the ones dictating history. Thus they're always the heroes in their eyes
@@MarvoloSalazar take today as a win, Kissinger is dead.
The scary truth is that we do not know what other atrocities these dictators have done that have not yet been revealed.
Seems like the black soldiers are the problem you know stealing and hiding bullets cutting off black people's hands to show what happened to those bullets it mainly is the black soldiers that are doing all the abuse and horrible ugly things I didn't see no white people cutting off no hands or beating nobody with a whip
As well as the forgotten war crimes that were committed by the Japanese in World war 2
or other dictators.
@@theriddlemethispersongoldeneye Not necessarily forgotten, but the numbers are smaller
Exactly
Imagine living through a gulag just for it to be made into a meme by people who never heard of it until call of duty.
I would've preferred my suffering in a gulag to memed by CoD over being completely forgotten. Atleast It would spark interest in the subject.
@@M0rshu64 Idk if i agree or not but interesting.
@@M0rshu64 the people who actually been in one are from a different generation and probably wouldnt find it very humorous also cod players dont have the best idea what a real gulag actually was because to them its just a place to fight over a spot back in the game
I was talking to this one Russian lady. She was about 23 or 24. And she moved to LA around 2015. She never knew what the Gulag was. I was shocked. Her own parents hid it from her.
@Jay Will6 That's usually how it goes. Ask the average 23 year old Japanese what he/she thinks about Unit 731 and Nanking.
That king Leopold piece is incredible. I think seeing this in an animation takes away from the sheer horror. I saw a pic from Congo taken with a woman who had her hand missing and a kid in a cage and two white kids smiling, between the woman and the kid in the cage. Chilling pic the look in the eyes is as if their defeated.
I would’ve liked to learn more about this in school to show that every country can be evil, even a small country like belgium (im dutch)
its also an exagerated lie
For eternity
@@tintinmilou9471 Okay King Leonidas the second.
There was no need t point out the races of the 2 mean kids.
People criticize hitler but those same people praise Stalin.
I know 13 years old communists be like 😅
@@Haryad-11 fr bro
No
Exactly it’s cringe
Uh yep. Same with roles reversed to be fair but if you take a stance against one your often labelled as the other. It’s a sick and fucked up cycle and if there was a Time Machine available, let’s just say a majority of smart people would make a B-line straight for Marx.
Those Congo animations were brutal.. just the thought of getting your hand cut off while pretending to be dead is insane!!
Good old Joseph Stalin I don't know why he never gets the props he deserves they always feel like Hitler outshines him but Stalin got numbers up there
He was a terrible man
@@BayAreaPolice he was being sarcastic
Winners wrote history if you only knew,Communism is the worst evil on earth.
@@daneboro6847 Yes, we're aware - history that shows why everyone in the war made some pretty fucking abhorrent decisions, or downright braindead decisions.
Let's not forget US forces ignoring intelligence that there's an ambush in a town, then walking into that town, getting ambushed, getting massacred, and being surprised.
edgy
Wow I am going to spend all night watching your videos because they are so intriguing! Among the best stuff on RUclips.
A wonderful channel that deserves the best regards, appreciation, admiration and pride. It provides accurate and useful information. I thank you for all the beautiful words and sincere feelings for your distinguished posts. I wish you continued success and all the best. My utmost respect and appreciation
Always remember...
No one thinks of themself as evil.
Very true, which is why self reflection is especially important. These individuals had much in common in that they were focused on how they were treated, though never considerate of how they were with others. They were total victims in their own stories
Dahmer did
@@kanegarvey848 He wasnt evil though. He was just very messed up and did some horrible things. He wasnt pleased with himself though.
@@LaZarusXtnct I mean I'd consider him evil.
@@kanegarvey848 I think he had some level of remorse, which contradicts the concept of a person being evil.

The Congo story is unbelievable. I cannot believe it is not more known. Those poor people. My god
HA'MASHIACH knows..
There's a lot of French terrors that are underknown:
The Reign of Terror that was the result of the French revolution and thinkers such as Rousseau, which would also inspire communism, fascism, and socialism in general. The collectivist ideologies.
Nearly every single colony France had's brutal crackdowns and massacres.
Various massacres within France.
Etc.
@@pubcle in the Americas also they would marry into a tribe and use that to manipulate trade while destroying their culture
@@songofseikilos8659 Well the conversion and trade through marriage is just how politics and spread of ideas was carried at the time. That's not particularly atrocious of the times, pretty much every nation engaged in that with each other, including to other Europeans when it was less nation-state and more tribal or clan based. That's just part of cultural influence, it would be like complaining about how any nation of any size pushes its economics and funding around today to try and change cultural aspects. There were times France was far more brutal and invasive than that.
What poor people? Lazy stoneage slackers! When you rather die than work, it really says something about you :D
This feels like the kind of history that’s just worth knowing about. Many people go through life ignorant of the events that shaped the current world 🌎
It's quite weird though that America isn't mentioned with all the civilians killed in Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan etc etc etc etc, innit?
@@Escritorez It’s a video of dictators, not governments. Plus this is a history channel, Iraq and Afghanistan is more contemporary and not considered history yet, since at least 50 years needs to pass in order for historians to get all the facts and make analyses on it.
@@wubstep420 Vietnam then? Korea? Genocide of native americans? And so on and so on and so on...
Stalin literally killed more than Hitler and yet being a Stalin fan is okay.
@@gustavabensberg4260 We’ve never really fought him in any war directly and they’ve never lost like Hitler did. The losers of any war are often deemed as terrible people because they were on the losing side and countries such as the US had to dehumanize them and justify going to war with them.

Mao zedong: most peaceful chinese emperor
I guess that's why Deng Xiaoping introduced the One-child policy to control Chinese population growth for decades after Mao Zedong's death? Were you planning to write a script to sequel of dumb and dumber? China achieved an ice-breaking diplomatic miracle under Mao.
Most voters want democratic rights without responsibility. That's why they conveniently blame China for their problems. They forget that the power to elect their own leaders comes with responsibility. Which voter doesn't yearn to enjoy a good life? Is there really a need to vote for a better life? But why can't most democratic societies live up to public expectation to deliver what they demand?
This deplorable culture to scapegoat foreign partners and competition of Western democracy means that socioeconomic development challenges are never fundamentally addressed. Chickens eventually come home to roost. Nobody may have the cake, and eat it too. Nobody can forever escape the moment of reckoning. Humanity is past the point of no return.
I hope to admire the 5,000-year history of Taiwan and Hong Kong. Seriously. Qin Shihuang is immortalized in history books for changing the course of history. Put simply, China won't exist without his epic revolutionary unification of the warring states. Julius Caesar too, made his mark in a turbulent world by creating the Roman empire, which would since remain the pride of the West.
But who will remember Lee Kuan Yew in 500 years? Make no mistake. Lee's version of “benevolent dictatorship” is widely appreciated by his own people for boosting their living standards. However, Singapore's founding father deemed it fit to erect a statue of Sir Stamford Raffles by the Singapore river in tribute to former British colonial rule.
There's a fundamental difference between a genuine visionary who would materialize a tectonic shift in regional balance of power to reshape the geopolitical landscape and a masterful follower who made a fortune for his family while leading a young citystate to unprecedented affluence worthy of global envy under the prevailing international order.
Mao ended decades of international isolation, blockade and boycott to bring the PRC into the United Nations as a permanent member of the security council. China achieved a diplomatic breakthrough to mend ties with the West via the historic ping pong diplomacy, amid the Cold War, at the height of the Cultural Revolution.

习近平如果以秦孝公为榜样，大刀阔斧推行法律政治方面的改革，竞争对手从此就不会有好日子过了。你已经掉入了 false dichotomy 的意识形态陷阱，天真认为世界就是所谓集权专政 vs 美国霸权主导的所谓民主体制。你相信民主，所以支持霸权主义。我质疑民主体制的绝对普世优越性，所以坚决反对霸权主义。民主国家支持霸权，实属自欺欺人的伪君子作风。

where Winston Churchill and their genocides?
4:36-5:18 The Death of Stalin in a nutshell. I love that movie!
At first, I was surprised you didn’t mention Beria at all during the portion about Stalin. But then I realized that he’s another story. Beria was truly sick and evil beyond repair.
In the end, Beria got a taste of his own medicine. It was said he cried like a little girl begging for his life. To no avail, of course.
I think they did mention Beria
I just looked him up. Yikes... Not only did he organize the extermination of 22,000 polish people, it's believed he was a serial killer and serial rapist as well.
They did, but not extensively. For instance, they never talk about Beria’s sadistic habit of torturing people for his own amusement. He was so messed up that even Stalin didn’t let his own daughter around him
It's still a whitewashed story of Stalin, ignoring his paedophiliac escapades and the "famine" being a deliberate genocide to replace populations with more.loyal rural russians. Specifically, Holodomor starved Ukrainians to death and Kazakhstan famine was also a deliberate ethnic cleansing. On top of that, he declared ALL Crimean Tatars genetically fascist, exiled them all to Siberia (most dying on the way), and only allowed white people to live in Ukrainian Crimea.
Pretty known quote but those who do not remember history are bound to repeat it please understand this is why we must learn about these terrible atrocities 😔
Agreed, if we dont know history we will repeat it
You forgot to include General Hector Aldozar of Isla Island (later renamed Bananarama) who became the most brutal dictator in Isla Island's history. He was so brutal, he earned the nickname "El Bailarín De La Muerta," which translates to "The Dancer of Death".
He might just have Been pissed “bananarama” seriously?
The way you subtly worked in an American Dad reference!! Pure F***ing Genius!!! 😂 😂 😂
@@victorlolxd7347THATS WHAT IM SAYING 😭😭😭
Yeah, but he was a helluva dancer.
"Welcome to Bananarama, where it's party time all the time".
I did a presentation about King Leopold ll, the stories were truly disturbing and it broke my heart having to research about this disgusting situation.
Hey at least you were brave enough to dig through the truth and not ignore or dismiss the facts 👍🏾💯
Does anyone know of any movies about this? Seems like a good movie
@Whyllow Films... and DISGUSTING INDIVIDUAL (King Leopold)...
“This enraged his father, who punished him severely.”
The huge crowds didnt go to Stalins funeral to pay their respects, but to confirm that he really died
How is Belgium not made to apologize for this awful man! Why is this not made more public, this just… how can we do this to each other?! I barely got through that section of the video. Leopold the second was a monster, a horrific person!
Why don't you apologize for that one Neanderthal that killed that one animal that one time
Thank god Leopold II was included
A few who DEFINITELY belong on the list, but weren't mentioned: 1) Pol Pot. He perpetrated, per-capita, the greatest genocide in modern history. 2) The "Emperor" Bokasa of the Central African Republic (re-named "Empire," by him. One of his claims-to-fame, was personally beating to death, a large number of children, who wouldn't wear a school uniform designed by his brother. He also depleted his nation's treasury, to fund his "coronation." 3) Francois "Papa Doc" Duvalier. Among other things, he personally tortured prisoners, in a dungeon he set up in the basement of the National Palace, he created the "Ton-Ton Macoutes," his private torture & death squad, and changed the "Lord's Prayer" to apply to him---"Our Doc, who art in the National Palace..." Idi Amin, of course, who traveled about Uganda with a portable guillotine, beheading potential opponents, and was reputedly a cannibal (I think Bokasa was, too). Kim Il Sung, the "Great Leader," and both "Baby Kims," for numerous reasons. There are plenty of "runner-ups," but I think the ones I've listed were the worst of the worst.
was ganna say Pol Pot. the man-child that killed millions
@@spiderzvow1 I remember seeing on TV, an interview with the monster, while he was in exile in China. He was in tears!....NOT tears of guilt or regret. He was all broken up, because people just didn't understand that it was NECESSARY for him to have done what he did!
@@_Iseah Perhaps I should have been specific, since there are SO many of them! I was referring to Cambodian one.
I heard pol pot died peacefully in America somewhere I wish I knew he was here
Nobody ever mentions pol pot ):
Great video but horrifying at the same time. I don't even know what words could describe Stalin and Hitler, anything would be an understatement.
This is really heartbreaking. Such despicable people.
I really like the added details and in depth look at specific policies during the Great Leap Forward; the typical talking points are gone over again and again in many videos on the subject so hearing new details was very refreshing and entertaining, + 1 subscriber earned. 👍
Mao Zedong was the most evil of all dictators he killed more people than all others combined. Leopold 15 million deaths, Hitler 17 million deaths, Stalin 23 million deaths, Mao 78 million deaths. Yet he's on the Chinese money and respected while Hitler is hated. How does that make sense? I guess it has to be because Germany is a free country today while China is still under the dictatorship of the CCP.
I guess that's why Deng Xiaoping introduced the One-child policy to control Chinese population growth for decades after Mao Zedong's death? Were you planning to write a script to sequel of dumb and dumber? China achieved an ice-breaking diplomatic miracle under Mao.

Quality on the video, lighting and audio on these videos has come a long way
The fact that atrocities in The Congo‘s isn‘t spoken about enough is very sad near 10 million deaths half a population…
West doesnt want to talk about their crimes, i saw a comment of a Belgian that said theres still statues of the dictator. they arent even sorry
I think most of them were because of diseases brought by Europeans or famine but still sad ❤
Is that in King Leopold's time or the senseless killings and murders that have been happening since 1996? At least 5.4 million people have been killed up to 2007. It seems sources claim the death toll is 1000 people a day. Current research has the figure around 7 million and climbing as of 2023. The cobalt mines are a major cause of the violence and also the claims by the Congo that at least $1 billion of cobalt has been smuggled by Rwanda. Many Rwandans have joined the rebel M23 faction.
That’s because people dehumanize black people
I love how the dictators are playing with toys menacingly.
Like lord helmet?
Me too
Yeah and what price they have to pay at the end with blood on they're hands...
Yeah I love to see them play with your family as toys like that😂😂😂

The above list does not include numerous coups by U.S.-trained fighters, such as (other than Honduras) those discussed here: “from Isaac Zida of Burkina Faso, Haiti’s Philippe Biamby, and Yahya Jammeh of The Gambia to Egypt’s Abdel-Fattah el-Sisi, Mohammad Zia-ul-Haq of Pakistan, and the IMET-educated leaders of the 2009 coup in Honduras, not to mention Mali’s Amadou Sanogo.”
These are just in very recent years, by no means a complete list, though the Haiti coup referenced here was earlier than the one included in the list above.
We might want to the list of U.S.-backed coups: Venezuela 2018. We should certainly add Bolivia 2019. Also Venezuela 2019. And Venezuela 2020. And it seems we need to add New Zealand 1987. Also Guinea 2021, Mali 2021, Mauritania 2008, Mali 2012, Egypt 2013, Burkina Faso 2015, Mali 2020, etc.
We might want to add to the list of coups by U.S.-trained troops: these from a 2022 report in The Intercept: “Since 2008, U.S.-trained officers have attempted at least nine coups (and succeeded in at least eight) across five West African countries, including Burkina Faso (three times), Guinea, Mali (three times), Mauritania, and the Gambia.” Also in 2022, Democracy Now reported on these coups by U.S. trainees just in Africa: Chad 2021, Mali 2021, Mali 2020, Guinea 2021, Sudan 2021, Bukina Faso 2022.

Did you get this from the Tom cruise movie lol
These are truly some of the most evil people in the history of the world
We need more
The Albanian dictator Enver Hoxha was also very cruel. His torture methods and executions were shocking, tens of thousands were killed during his rule in Albania (1945-1985). Maybe a video about him in the future?
Sounds like a great guy
@@collinthegamer510 He did many good things for Albania, the Albanian military was one of the best in Europe and one of the greatest in the world, Albania was the country with the highest soldiers per capita (out of a population of 3 milion, there were 700k soldiers), but Enver Hoxha's policies towards his political and ideological enemies were very cruel, the Albanian camps (gulags) were brutal and harsh during the Communist Era.
Do one about what if Cold War begun
Lol
No one cares about Albania unfortunately
Love guys. Going thru the hardest part of not only getting thru my alcoholism but also thru my divorce. Learning and/or expanding my knowledge of history truly has taken my mind off so many things. Keep up the great work, it's appreciated more than you'll ever know!
I have been through both except throw in some drug addiction. I swear to you it gets better. Not only better, you will find so one that loves you the way you should be. Better yourself. Hit the gym, get some work done, you've got this.

Leopold will not rest in peace. Oloshi
The dictators always forget that it is not possible to cling on to power for an infinite time.
Great video as always! I'd be really interested in countries history ✨😎‼
I didn't see King Leopold committing any atrocities in fact I didn't see no white people in this video cutting off hands or beating people with whips it was all black soldiers doing it to Black civilians
It's about time people know about King Leopold and how much of a MONSTER he truly was.
It’s the same with Pol Pot, and Idi Amin-both terrible, and arguably worst than _evil mustache man,_ but no one seems to discuss them.
Jews suppress information about any other atrocities, because they need the attention on them at all times. And there are museums of it in every country and city. After all, that's how they get billions from every country each year. "We need it :( We're just small guys being bullied.. with the power of a US Military.. and our enemies are children throwing rocks"
What a depressing culture.
Leopold's descendants officially apologised to the people of the Congo for the atrocities not too long ago.
F Africa
Haha
As the saying goes "Hate the government, not the people"
Make a video on one of the most major battles or events of the Yugoslav Wars. Like the Srebrenica Massacre or the Siege of Sarajevo
Yeah and like all the civilians killed by NATO bombings.
Or the bombing of Yugoslavia by NATO
Srebrenica was vastly exagerated and Mladic is a war hero
Siege of Knin (1995)
@@sachoune3416 hhahahaa bulsht 😂😂. MLADIC was a war criminal .
Very good job fellows!! Congratulations.
This feels like the kind of history that’s just worth knowing about. Many people go through life ignorant of the events that shaped the current world 🌎
Please do a series of these historical monsters. Unfortunately there are many available for discussion.
Wow this is so interesting

Thanks so much for adding Alex Mason and Viktor Reznov to the Gulag video!
Since you guys have talked about the Congo Free State a few times, I would like to see if you guys could cover a video on the Congo-Arab War. It was a proxy war between the Congo Free State and various groups of East African slave traders led by Sefu bin Hamid that lasted from 1892 to January 1894.
Although not talked AT ALL in discussions regarding slavery, Arabs were the biggest perpetrators of Western/Transatlantic Slave Trade. Chained Africans would be gathered all around Sahel, then would be sold to Europe or America via Ottomans or Spanish/Portuguese.
It's crazy how fucked up the world is and how much they don't tell you when you were in school
"You hammered them to the point of desperation. And in their desperation they turned to a man they didn't fully understand." -Alfred
The different sized pupils of Stalin during his animated stroke was a nice touch
A video so good I wish it was longer
Haha the whip noises playing over and over was making me laugh so much. Such odd audio for this video.
I think that it's neat history that Chang Kai Checks defeated army dominated the Heroin trade for decades.
One note- the Cold War was not started single handedly. FDR was very willing to work with the USSR, whereas Truman was far more distrustful of the USSR. The division of Germany was a huge sticking point between the Allies, and without FDR you had two leaders who were unwilling to budge
Maybe because Communism is the enemy of freedom.

The history of the Cold War would certainly be, objectively, a history of two sides that barely understood each other working hard to screw each other over, while making disastrous decisions that set their own interests back repeatedly. The west, for example, pushed for a "containment" policy that would confine the Soviets to a limited area of power and influence, while the Soviet Russians felt existentially threatened without a comfortable buffer zone between themselves and their enemies - the different psychologies would drive the two sides to constantly do things that would heighten the insecurity and paranoia of their opponents. (This is, arguably, the history of more than just the Cold War, as much the same thing could be said of many counterproductive history-making decisions made since the establishment of the League of Nations and its successor, the United Nations, in the name of maintaining a "balance of power" and a "world order", such as the disastrous decisions that led to the secret treaties that sparked WWI, or the no less disastrous Treaty of Versailles that made WWII all but inevitable....)
Fdr was a beta leader and subservient to the USSR
Love the long format videos, thank you.
I love the "day in the life of" concept!
Mao should've learned: A great leap forward often requires first taking two steps back.
Just sat down to eat dinner and saw Simple History uploaded a new video, and it's over an hour! Feeling blessed.
It's a good day when simple history uploads
Damm straight
Except when it’s a compilation of reuploads…I understand this content takes time to make but then like…just don’t upload repeats?
Mainly it looks like black soldiers abusing black civilians to me I didn't see any White cartoons beating people with whips or cutting people's hands off or having big buckets of hands so they could steal bullets it was mainly black people doing it to each other
Oh I love seeing the USSR videos ..... Hope they were happy with what they voted for lol lol
include polpot man. he was basically leftist himmler
Leopold's segment has to be the most disturbing and gruesome one in this video.
pol pot (khmer rouge) wouldve been a nice add to the list. either way, subscribed.
Oh lucky you. Tons of great videos to pour through on this channel.
what are oyu really trying to say here? hmm? well well well
7:20 gulags never went away though. They are still there, if not more. Just slightly more hidden, unless you can access sat photos on clear weather days
Amazed to see Leopold on the list, good on you for adding him
Well, gulags are coming back, it's just as visible, as the communist parties of North America hides all the undersirables in the prisons.
Big difference is before they were used to ethnically cleanse the Slavic Christian population now they are just prisons
@@kaisercollins3097 yeah, I'm sure that no ethnic cleansing is going on.....

Communists watching this: "BuT ReAl CoMmUnIsM has NeVeR bEeN tRiEd!!!" 😂😂😂
it hasn't. the very existence of a dictator automatically removes it from being communism, but just a branch of communism. communism is just anarchism with a different method of implementation
@@tonyisnotdeadbro go take a shower and stop touching your pp so much
Cool, subbed
It started pretty good, but than it began jumping back and forth between diffeereent Leaders , repating itself and became a mess.
Yeah, it does lose some rating points for being a bit random and repetitive in the presentation: it clearly started its life as a collection of separate videos that were recorded over and extended period of time and then stapled together without any obvious design involved in the order other than something arbitrary, like the date of recording or whatever...
I enjoy your videos. Have you done one on the molasses explosion in Boston in the early 1900's.
You're enjoying lies? I don't even feel sorry for sheep like you.
I didn't see you playing with your dolls again sir!
Love spaceballs!
The reason Stalingrad was defended at all costs was not because of name, but mostly because of strategic importance. If Stalingrad fell, the Nazis could have cut off much of the Soviet oil supplies, and worse, diverted the oil for their own use. Both sides knew this, and both sides fought bitterly because of this.
It's name was one of the reasons for defending the city though.
Great channel and content. Subscribed
Once I saw dictator, I knew Mao is definitely gonna be a part of it
Jinping awaits his seat there. Hes not going to be remembered well.
Does that emoji mean ur a member of the channel??
Valkyrie would have succeded if the bomb was planted NEXT to Hitler but also still would have if they used double the explosion. However due to the weight and injuries Strauff had it was impossible and to heavy along with unreliable and too dangerous.
i like how you can watch these videos when working on things because they are so long
24:39-24:55
The subtle noises in the background really psyched me out lol.
I'm listening to this at the hospital with earbuds in and I thought I was hearing a patient scream over the audio. I would take them out and it was silence. Put then back in and there it was again. Took a couple times to realize it was the video lol.
Nice easter egg at 6:42 with Mason and Rezenov from BlackOps
That’s what I’m saying I just noticed

Stalin, a Georgian: Reads about Georgian independence.
Stalin: Becomes supreme leader of the Soviet Union
Georgia: You'll give us independence right?
Stalin: 🗿
But he did promote Georgian culture in USSR and Georgia was persecuted lesser compared to other SSRs including Russia. Also many of his close associates like Lavrentiy Beria were of Georgian origin. Also Georgia didn't face famines like in Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan.
@@gocool_2.0 Lol what, he suppressed many Rebellion's in Georgia and killed many people during purge Lavrentiy Beria became a high official not because he was Georgian but because he supported Stalin
@@giorgijioshvili9713 That's true. He persecuted everyone. The first targets were turkic tribes. I just told Georgian persecution was somewhat milder compared to other SSRs
@@gocool_2.0 probably because other SSR's had larger population's
