@@willis32 sure but i feel like as a pirate youd have to rely on reputation a lot, either for being atleast somewhat trustworthy or a brutal butcher. Thiefs honor and that kinda shit

Consider that for the first time around, Blackbeard got a new ship and his share of a lot of plunder from his stint as Bonnet's "shadow-captain". At that point, there wasn't all that much of a reason not to stay true to his word and let Stede go, even if that was his original plan and it would have been easy.
Blackbeard was incredibly cunning, no need to betray Stede when he got what he wanted, and it's nice to have an easy to manipulate "friend" in your debt.
I recently finished playing through Assassin Creed Black Flag and in that game Blackbeard is just as crazy, reasonable and notorious as this video made him out to be. Goes to show how accurate Internet Historian is with real life figures.
Yes. I even remember during one mission, Blackbeard kinda liked the idea of just diving into sunken ships to get treasure instead of attacking and plundering merchant ships.
Poor management of finances can easily turn silver spoon rich into someone scraping to make due. You have to know what you are doing and clearly Stede didn't at first.
assassins creed 4 blackflag taught me a lot about all this piracy stuff. And yes , Blackbeard was a really good captain, and would usually not kill anyone unless he needed to to get what he needed.
Honestly I'm not sure what to feel. I can't imagine the differences living in that time period with a life like his. The man literally did nothing with his life up to that point, and people didn't live long at all back then.
@@coranbaker6401 Explain that to his wife and kids and see how they felt when he took all their valuables and sold them off to build a boat so he could play at being a pirate.
@@OrbObserver Only except it wasn't theirs at all, it was all his and his families before him. His wife was a whinny bitch who expected everything to be done for her who married him for his money and status if anything not anything else. And as you'll learn later on, she went and simply married another rich noble man. Given this, it's likely his kids were fine ,raised well, and even grew up with a father figure to boot.
@@sethl.lazarus6642 Wow dude misogynist much? And when you make a family the family assets belong... To the family. And yeah of course she remarried he abandoned her and several children in a time when single mothers literally could not earn any money except maybe through prostitution. Why do you hate women so much?
@@OrbObserver How am I a misogynist? I painted her exactly how she looks. A whiny prick who only married into money/social status. Then again, every other women was told to do the same by their families at the time. But that's how the time period was, you married into power and wealth regardless of who you were. As for the properties and valuables, all his. He inherited it from his family, had to hire workers to work on the house using the little money he had and could get while all she did was bitch about how there was a little bit of dust there and here. Not to mention the deed of the house is probably in his name. He did everything he could to try make his wife happy and all she did was complain until he couldn't take it anymore. Does it make it right that he abandoned his children? No, but what was he going to do? Take them with him? Try support them with the little money he didn't have? He didn't have any choice but to leave them and that is arguably the smartest choice. Was it a dick move to take all the valuables? No, not really. It wouldn't have mattered cause she would have found another man regardless of whether valuables were left behind ready to sell off. Additionally, with the status that she now has thanks to her ex-money-bank she would have no trouble marrying a desperate man (in need of a wife so that she can have his kids to inherit his land and wealth) and no where near having to resort to prostitution. All in all, she was a complete bitch who likely didn't even love her husband one bit. Why you're defending her is beyond me. I don't hate women at all, one of the strongest people I've ever met in my life is a women. That's just a lame excuse you tossed up because you can't stand the fact that a women dare receive any criticism. Go take your beans and bullshit else where dude. It's clear you're just itching for an excuse to call someone "RaCiSt, bIgOtEd, pHoBic tHiS aND tHaT" for what any reason you deem fit.
When it comes to fan fiction I have noted that it is usually started with the desire to escape reality. However depending on the author’s intentions their story, grammar, and punctuation can be effected. I have noticed that with romance and action genres there is a vast amount of grammar/punctuation errors, lack of world building, and plot holes because the author was rushing the story to get to what they believe is the best part of their story being sexual activities, or some ridiculous nonsense they believed would excite their readers. In romance fanfics they end up being rubbish porn with no plot that hardly makes any sense due to immature desire for anything related to sex, an example would be a story of strangers meeting each other in an unlike scenario then marrying and having sexual intercourse all in one chapter/page which isn’t an exaggeration.

Blackbeard being surprisingly resonable for a pirate
well pirates generally did have a code of conduct especially among other pirates so i guess there is some worth to keeping your word
@@pissfather6798 "The code is more what you'd call guidlines than actual rules"

"i missed the part where that was my problem" is a reference to sam raimi's spider man
Oh dang!!!

@@OrbObserver It also makes him look a lot better
yeah! this is one of the best internet historian videos im glad you filaly got around to watching it

@@roguescorner9042
Yeah, he tells you it would be a better long-term plan than robbing ships.
Incidentally, that’s also where my love of sea shanties was born
Dude, yes! Muppet Treasure Island's one of my favorite Muppet movies; let alone Treasure Island adaptations. ^^
31:01 you can spot a giant inflatable swan in the background.
Poor management of finances can easily turn silver spoon rich into someone scraping to make due. You have to know what you are doing and clearly Stede didn't at first.
7:00 makes me wanna get back into playing Sea of theives!
Do what you want cause a pirate is free, you are a pirate! 8D
Oh this is a good one.
*grabs popcorn

Oh yeah. Here we go.
Stede was doing.. okay-ish. . this part (well not last 5 minutes).. but oh boy the stuff he did next part.. im just speechless.. :D
I love the shirts, y'all have a mighty fine taste in music
F yeah this is one of his best
Yeees! I've been waiting for your reaction to this!! 💜💜
You could watch CGP Grey's two pirate videos. They're a short explanation of the whole business idea of piracy.
Thanks for the great birthday gift!
Aww, you stopped 1 minute before the perfect episode's end.
I need to get one of those Blink-182 shirts.
I didn’t even realize we were both wearing them until we sat down to record 😅
29:00 Women have no empathy for a man down on his luck.
Lmao he put himself in the predicament.
At 14:45 when stede blinks like that do people usually do that when they’ve had it or does it mean something else?
Finally
The pirates were much nicer for the most part than the privateers or the Spanish and French Navy's
Broooo that dog is soooo chill. Just chillin

You can't really feel sorry for him when he abandoned his family to have a mid-life crisis.
