I think I remember reading somewhere that Stalin actually really loved his wife, he was a violent thug before but it was when she died that he went complete sociopath.
I've heard about this, there are records he said: "This creature softened my heart of stone. She died and with her died my last warm feelings for humanity." during her funeral, and was seriously considering suicide. However, I'm not too sure if he actually loved her. Excluding how history portrays him as a psychopath/sociopath, records say he wasn't really the best husband, and the wording of this quote (though could be translation error) is a little off.
@@randomcuriosity9421 That was the first wife that he had that he said that about but as far as the treatment of her and the others I don't really know but just through assuming the way he treated them probably wasn't great.
I get that he's a teacher and all, but isn't it just a good technique in general to use? Saying what you think kinda means nothing if you can't give a reason why you think it. Otherwise you're basically just screaming into the void, right?
Screaming into the void, to me, would be more like the readers not caring what you wrote. That may be the case, but I have parents that are teachers. The way he says it reminds me of them. Saying what you mean and why is unfortunately a lost art.

One of my favorite fun historic facts: MLK and Anne Frank were born the same year, yet due to the time frames of their claim to fame, they are associated with two very different times in history.
Another really fun song that does a pretty good job of including historical fact, “Complete History of the Soviet Union arranged to the melody of Tetris”. It’s fantastic
Oppenheimer vs Thanos is currently the best example of a curbstomp. But it's true, the closer battles are the best ones. FDR and Churchill come to mind for that.
I like this stuff, I enjoy the fact he watches it and has a look over the outfits and costumes, but I wish he circled back to the lyrics and explained things as to why certain lines make sense. "I even crush motherfuckers when I'm laid in state" would've been a good one for example. I have no idea what makes that line, and I don't know how accurate it is. "Pride of Lenin took Trotsky out of the picture" references Stalin calling *himself* the successor to Lenin, even though Lenin himself did not want the man in charge, and Trotsky was the basically runner up to Stalin, but was forced to flee to Mexico where he was assassinated by Stalin's men in 1940. He was forcibly removed to prevent anything from stopping the dictator. There's so much to unpack in all ERB videos, but the Russian Leaders one in particular has a lot of amazing moments because of things like that, Gorbachev ending the Cold War, that sort of thing. I'd love to see Mr. Terry unpack these at the end of a video, going through them bit by bit like a rapid fire history lesson! Edit: I mean, Mr. Terry does say it's hard for him to catch everything, but I feel like if he had a little time he could record his immediate reaction live the way he currently does, but then have a more edited part right after where he gives more of a run through of as much as he knows in the rap, something he maybe has taken notes on, structured a little bit or at least goes through a bit more? I don't know, I feel like he could easily make a full video just on one of these raps at a time, but the editing is where it'd be most time consuming so I suppose I understand.
One is when the right hand man line comes up. Stalin had his left hand messed up, or some’m like but lenin doesn’t even remember that, in the next shot, you can see him staring at his like why did he say the wrong one does he not remember my hand? Plus, I could end you with a whisper to your wife line by rasputin was a nod to how people thought he was controlling the tsar and fking his wife.
@@urmumhuge5556 Exactly! A lot of ERBs best stuff has way more depth than most people would know, so there's a great opportunity to make reactions of a history teacher who can highlight them in a more structured way and all that, after their first and immediate response.
My fav. Line is: "I'll be picking apart your Wu, with my Method, Man". This is absolute epic and I don't know how many people will get all three layers of references in this line. 1. Obvious reference to Method Man and Wu Tan. 2. A reference to Sun Tzu's actual name Sun Wu, Tzu is a honorary title added to his name. 3. Wu as a standalone character in Chinese means combat, so this is a line to dissect Sun Tzu's famous battle strategies with the Socrates Method. Full credit to Jeff Zhu for writing this up

Evil Unchained you know the best thing about Voltaire ? For most of his life, he wasn’t best known for his books, or his wit and everything else, but because he was an excellent dancer ! It was a time where dance was very important, so most people knew him as a dancer rather than a philosopher !
@@blooddragon805 yess it is incredibly hilaripus to see how ignorant the way of thinking was, it was too focused on luxury and status (such as being a good dancer due to being able to practicr and learn how to unlike a farmer per example) , but its a fun lityle bit of knowledge about voltaires complicated life, he was a dancer, a menace , a rebel, a tenant, a savior, a philosopher, a writer, a fuigitive, a lottery winner, an earthquake survivor ,its amazing really
I think that the connection between William Wallace and George Washington is that they both fought for freedom against the British.
They both fought for freedom.

They did an excellent job with Stalin's character. The beginning when he says "look into my eyes, you perverted witch," you can just feel the hatred and anger radiating from his character. Kind of unnerving, but in a good way. Gives me chills to be honest.

Same story, 6am after an insomniac night~
I think I remember reading somewhere that Stalin actually really loved his wife, he was a violent thug before but it was when she died that he went complete sociopath.
I've heard about this, there are records he said:
"This creature softened my heart of stone. She died and with her died my last warm feelings for humanity."
during her funeral, and was seriously considering suicide.
However, I'm not too sure if he actually loved her. Excluding how history portrays him as a psychopath/sociopath, records say he wasn't really the best husband, and the wording of this quote (though could be translation error) is a little off.
@@randomcuriosity9421 That was the first wife that he had that he said that about but as far as the treatment of her and the others I don't really know but just through assuming the way he treated them probably wasn't great.
“Always say why.”

Real teacher right there.
I get that he's a teacher and all, but isn't it just a good technique in general to use? Saying what you think kinda means nothing if you can't give a reason why you think it. Otherwise you're basically just screaming into the void, right?
Screaming into the void, to me, would be more like the readers not caring what you wrote. That may be the case, but I have parents that are teachers. The way he says it reminds me of them. Saying what you mean and why is unfortunately a lost art.
I was reading through the comments as he said that and I saw your comment. The universe made me comment this.
These are basic youtube etiquettes right here

"call me Uber Mensch, 'cause I'm so driven" might be one of the cleverest jokes in ERB.

Uber might not be around in 20 years, so that joke will go over people's heads in the future.
i honestly didnt even consider the uber "driver" service.....
i interpreted it literally, and it worked great, so i didnt even consider other possible meanings.
That wasn't the joke. Uber wasn't even big at the time. He was referring to his philosophy, the Ubermensch or Superman. A man who takes control of his life and does shit to improve himself and other shit.

The best of ERB is where the outcome sure seems like a tie in badassery. A clear winner is no fun. Well matched opponents is what is awesome.
Generally yes, but sometimes it's fun to watch someone get stomped. Bieber vs Beethoven comes to mind.
Skrillex vs mozart is the best example
@@Cinna3unnz Clint eastwood vs Bruce lee
Yea, but I do like people taking a guess on who they though won
Oppenheimer vs Thanos is currently the best example of a curbstomp.
But it's true, the closer battles are the best ones. FDR and Churchill come to mind for that.
“He’s gotta be Putin. He has his shirt off.’
I like this stuff, I enjoy the fact he watches it and has a look over the outfits and costumes, but I wish he circled back to the lyrics and explained things as to why certain lines make sense. "I even crush motherfuckers when I'm laid in state" would've been a good one for example. I have no idea what makes that line, and I don't know how accurate it is. "Pride of Lenin took Trotsky out of the picture" references Stalin calling *himself* the successor to Lenin, even though Lenin himself did not want the man in charge, and Trotsky was the basically runner up to Stalin, but was forced to flee to Mexico where he was assassinated by Stalin's men in 1940. He was forcibly removed to prevent anything from stopping the dictator.
There's so much to unpack in all ERB videos, but the Russian Leaders one in particular has a lot of amazing moments because of things like that, Gorbachev ending the Cold War, that sort of thing. I'd love to see Mr. Terry unpack these at the end of a video, going through them bit by bit like a rapid fire history lesson!
Edit: I mean, Mr. Terry does say it's hard for him to catch everything, but I feel like if he had a little time he could record his immediate reaction live the way he currently does, but then have a more edited part right after where he gives more of a run through of as much as he knows in the rap, something he maybe has taken notes on, structured a little bit or at least goes through a bit more? I don't know, I feel like he could easily make a full video just on one of these raps at a time, but the editing is where it'd be most time consuming so I suppose I understand.
A TH-cam rap breakdown class?
I'd actually do and turn in the homework.
One is when the right hand man line comes up.
Stalin had his left hand messed up, or some’m like but lenin doesn’t even remember that, in the next shot, you can see him staring at his like why did he say the wrong one does he not remember my hand?
Plus, I could end you with a whisper to your wife line by rasputin was a nod to how people thought he was controlling the tsar and fking his wife.
@@urmumhuge5556 Exactly! A lot of ERBs best stuff has way more depth than most people would know, so there's a great opportunity to make reactions of a history teacher who can highlight them in a more structured way and all that, after their first and immediate response.
The picture line is also about Stalin editing his enemies out of pictures with himself after killing them

Agreeable. I had the same reaction when watching this for the first time.
Nothing in common?
Washington and Wallace fought against the English/British
Their names both start with W
FRRRREEEEEEDOOOOOOM!
Washington and Wallace were about fighting against a larger power. Fighting for Independence of a Country. The Freedom of Oppressed people.
I can't believe this wasn't the top comment. They both fought for independence from a British monarch... And that's just for starters
@@paladonis thank you
paladonis Scotland wasn’t oppressed, Wallace started the war by raiding the far north of England in places like Durham, and Northumberland.
My fav. Line is:
"I'll be picking apart your Wu, with my Method, Man".
This is absolute epic and I don't know how many people will get all three layers of references in this line.
1. Obvious reference to Method Man and Wu Tan.
2. A reference to Sun Tzu's actual name Sun Wu, Tzu is a honorary title added to his name.
3. Wu as a standalone character in Chinese means combat, so this is a line to dissect Sun Tzu's famous battle strategies with the Socrates Method.

"It's pretty easy to understand" should be its own sentence but otherwise your English is fine.
@@joshuafox8856 "I'm a French student" is its own thought. It should be its own sentence. "It's pretty easy to understand" is fine. Personally, I would have used a semicolon because of the two main clauses.
English speakers could spend hours arguing over punctuation. Language exists so we can communicate. You communicated better than most Americans could.
It's ethier way but you can't put all 3 thoughts together. That's a run on sentence. Which ever 2 you put together doesn't matter.
I really have to emphasize: "Oh, you don't wanna stand in the Path of Lao Tzu today. I'll make you mooove, bitch! Get out the Way!"

They also just had to drag the Tao of Pooh in there.
Lao Tzu is the father of Taoism while Sun Tzu wrote the "Art of War".
Great reaction video. My favorite is the Ghandi vs MLK Jr and the battle of the philosophies.
The MLK joke was from Chris Rock
"What street are you on?"
"Martin Luthor King St"
"RUNnnnnNn!!"
Both Washington and Wallace fought the English. There's your similarity
Wallace fought the English
Washington fought the British
Yes there is a difference.
Daniel Spargo Because England is country and Britain was an empire?
Darian Vargas no because Britain consists of Wales Scotland and Northern Ireland. Wales and Northern Ireland did not fight against the Scottish but were apart of the British army.
British is all in Britannia or British Isle include Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales, and England.
English, just anything about England
washington was british, so more like a traitor than anything else.
As many times as I've watched Washington vs Wallace, I am just now noticing that the sword William Wallace uses in the video is Strider's ranger sword from The Lord Of The Rings.
