I've heard it said that if one person says it's raining, and another says it's sunny, most journalists think their job is to print both opinions, when their ACTUAL job is to go outside and look up.
The reality is that they ONLY care about appealing to the largest majority people for financial reasons, not truth. Fear, hate and ignorance sells. It’s extremely easy to persecute minorities where the wider public are largely ignorant about. Profits above lives…..always.
It is hog wild to me that the actual George Lucas line, "This is how democracy dies--with thunderous applause," is actually a better description of rising authoritarianism than "Democracy Dies in Darkness."
Another fun trend is “fact checking the non-fascists: they said the fascist wanted to do a fascism, but actually, he backpedaled after he said that, so we rate this Pants on Fire”

Yeah. Robert is more rugged looking than I expected. And I've always imagined Sophie as kind of severe looking since her days in the Culture Kings podcast.
Absolute banger of an episode, and a discussion that needs to be heard by all liberals. Not sure how many liberals will hear this but presumably some will.
@dylanrodrigues I'll just stop by to give you a tip: Behemoth, by Franz Neumann. It's a contemporary description of the third reich, extremely well written. However, it's NOT a smooth and easy read, so only bother with it if that's up your alley.
Episodes like this are why I love Robert. The way he subtly points out the parallels between now and then really gives me a history repeats itself feeling. Not to mention it seems he's always at his best when the topic is Weimar Germany.
Suggested readings: "blackshirts and reds" and "inventing reality" both by Michael Parenti for very in-depth looks at this issue, particularly the latter
34:10 - To add insult to injury, which was also added to insult: Palestinians can't vote in Israeli elections - not those in the "Autonomous Gaza", not those in the the West Bank, certainly no the Palestinians displaced and living in refugee camps in Egypt and Yemen Not even the Palestinians who live in Israel proper - they aren't considered to have "Israeli Citizenship" The Israelis living in any of the above *_do_* get to vote though It's literally in the laws that can be easily looked up on the Israeli government's websites
That vision is what FDR and the New Deal offered. It took the wind out of the sails of fascism and the like. A path forward without burning everything down.
...smedly butler was what took the wind out of their sales they were very much planning on overthrowing FDR in a coop he knew they were going to do this because they recruited him to lead it (and he told on them to congress after getting enough evidence)
One headline from the (iirc 1930's) that I find particularly illustrative is from the American magazine 'Fortune' which read "The Wops Are Unwopping Themselves" in regard to Mussolini.
Yay, someone mentioned the Arditi del popolo! (Yes, that's properly capitalized) They're a very interesting group, pretty much the first explicit anti-fascists. They took their name from the WWI elitle soldiers in the Italian army known as Arditi, literally "those who dare" because a fair number of them were veterans of that group. You all should look into them more! There's not much online that I've been able to find, but there's enough to get an idea of their efforts and story.
Send your suggestion to "cool people who did cool stuff" Thats really more Margret's cup of tea if she hasnt covered them already.. although I dont think her podcast is published on RUclips.
I literally discovered this podcast two days (I ran through the 6 part Liddy extravaganza 😂) before you guys announced you were going to video. Feels like I came in right on time. Amazing stuff. Keep up the incredible work
@@Phil9874 - I'll always be grateful for the 'non-video' episodes because I get to fall asleep listening to them without having to fixate upon Robert's handsome visage.
Check out the stuff around the Battle of Portland too. Good stuff to know about. Really, I think the whole menu is delectable, but I'm a dark kinda dude so there's that
No Idea why the YT algorithm was like "you may like the Channel "Behind the Bastards"". But thanks algorithm, I guess. The only question I have is, why did it take so long to get this channel recommended.
In that same decade the so-called newspaper of record published an opinion lambasting _the_ Robert Goddard for, get this, believing rockets could work in space. The actual quote is "Of course [Goddard] only seems to lack the knowledge ladled out daily in high schools." And they waited until the day _after_ the launch of Apollo 11 to issue a retraction, which (naturally) failed to mention the launch, or Goddard. The New York Times isn't worth the dog shit picked up with the pulp they print on.
Well you see, Hitler was very strongly supportive of the US' manifest destiny colonialism and their genocide of the indigenous native american peoples.
Holy shit! Seeing you talk is such a treat for some reason. I always have a hard time picturing you when I listen. Thanks for the visual confirmation of your humanity. Solidarity.
So good to see and hear Michael Swaim again! Always a favourite and his small beans yt channel is a fun time - the channel is a chaotic assortment of videos and there's absolute gold in there ✨ If it were a bit clearer on the thumbnails and focus of the content it would be more pleasing to The Algorithm, alas, but low view count is no indication of quality, go digging!
@@SpoopySquid Yeah. I can't argue with that but at least they all seem to have moved on to better projects. I think Swain is back at cracked now and Dan O'Brien is at Last Week Tonight.

Hi behind the bastards crew, I was just listening to the second part of this series and you guys made a factual error that is incredibly important to correct. The quotes that you produced from Einstein about a vote for Nazism being a symptom was entirely correct and Robert was entirely incorrect in his commentary on it Einstein was in fact espousing the same view that Robert himself has exposed numerous times, that Nazism and fascism as a whole is not some unique thing but rather a consequence of what happens within broken systems. Einstein was commenting on how people voting for the Nazi party was indicative of these larger problems rather than the people just being anti-Semitic Robert has gone on Multi minute rants about distinguishing that the Nazis weren't just crazy Jew haters, that there is an underlying rationale that we can use to address the rise of fascism itself. Einstein was pointing out how voting for NSDAP wasn't just about anti-semitism, but was also about people who felt marginalized looking for something. Which is a fair assessment and I think it unfair to laugh at him as being entirely wrong.
Gosh I love this podcast, it saved me this is one of those moments we will look back into in history. No hyperbole thanks to the historian Sean Munger for recommending me to this podcast a year ago.
Ive seen a pic before and knew video was dangerous 😂 Luckily I've seen Michael's face on cracked already so I knew he's handsome. Sofie almost took me out tho. She's gorgeous! 😊
John Krasinski's sock twitter account trying to astroturf a hate campaign against Cody & Katy's Showdy is still the funniest shit to happen on the internet.
hes always seemed like a little dirtball. hes always been a shill, but the tom clancy jack ryan goyslop is clearly a humiliation ritual, and hes actively slurping that shit up.
I like the art of the hosts. It implies that Robert is the bastard that Sophie is behind, but also that their dog is the biggest, baddest bastard that Robert is behind lol
"I don't like flags. I'm not a flag guy," says Robert with an Angolan flag behind him XD I get what he's saying and I do agree -- I just found that funny. Love you guys
it's weirder seeing the faces after watching so much cracked like 15 years ago and being like "oh, I know that person actually, he's the reason I ask people what ninja turtle they are"
At long last after about a year and a half, I have fully caught up on BtB and ICHH, wanted to give huge shoutouts for your work and providing me a lot more context about the world. Thanks for the hours of knowledge! Couple bastards I would love to see you cover.

Are you psychotic? The American mainstream media is overwhelming in its support of Harris. If you actually think they're for Trump you're either a dolt or deranged.
I cannot listen to someone talk about the early interwar period in Italy without singing the praises of Clara E. Mattei's recent book "The Capital Order: How Economists Invented Austerity and Paved the Way to Fascism." Give it a read; it is ground-breaking.
now that we are getting to see everyones lovely mugs, im desperate for a Michael Swaim and Dan O'Brien pairing. I have a feeling the episodes would be immaculate.
The reliance of Hindenburg in the 30’s to moderate Hitler is especially funny considering his role in the pseudo military dictatorship of Ludendorff in WW1
The only "change" is that now there's not an actual socialist/communist movement for them to attack, but they make one up in their heads and get angry about it anyway.
The fact this is only part 1 and already this feels like a 1 to 1 of where we are today is as tragic as it is hilarious. Lucas was right, it does rhyme.

These days, newsrooms are so understaffed, it feels like they'll just report on the debate that's happening on twitter.
Their job doesn’t even require that much effort…they can just look out the window!
Fair and balanced
It is hog wild to me that the actual George Lucas line, "This is how democracy dies--with thunderous applause," is actually a better description of rising authoritarianism than "Democracy Dies in Darkness."
