Anyone who thinks we're currently in the darkest days of America clearly didn't notice The American Civil War in this
2nd Civil War is coming, though.
@@Mick_Aub tf you mean we almost broke up the nation over slavery.
@@Mick_Aub Advocating that the civil war was a better era of America than current America is kind of insane.
It’s true that the Civil war was awful and none of us can relate to the personal and physical loss it had on society, but the difference is that the problems of today cant be related to that of then.
Federal Taxes were only 3-5%.
You could buy a plot of land and build a house relatively easily.
Getting hitched was also not as hard as dating standards were much more tame and in order to get a spouse on must be of good standing, a job and good moral character.
While modern medicine hadn’t been invented, it was not a burden to have 10 kids and when you could have a stay at home mother, that modern day nightmare was yesterdays dream.
You were closer with your community and not forced to be a cog in a faceless and socially isolated hive-mind. When everyone goes to the same church and buys their goods from the same general store it’s easy to feel like a true member of a community.
Speaking of general stores, Are you afraid of a corporate economic takeover? Well back then, Corporations were relatively small and the only ones that started rising to power were the railroads, mining, and steel industry and they were more of a thing in large cities and not a problem for the common man.
Police and law enforcement were held a-lot more accountable. It’s easy to not get shot by sheriff Johnson when you go to the same barber or go drinking Saturday night with him and Deputy Jones.
Want to just get away and explore the world? Well there were no international laws preventing you, just grab a horse, get on a boat and see the world. There were no laws on passports so as long as you come in peace you were welcome anywhere (so long as you’re not Irish, racial prejudice was a thing)
But hey these are all things we should bring back. I still like my modern first world amenities but some of the normal ways of life back then are things that modern Americans can only dream of having today, and in many cases, not having these are whats culturally hurting society today.
@@Mick_Aub
The Slavery Debate lasted from 1780-1861. Far longer than our current woes. And it saw extreme violence even before the Civil War. Like Bleeding Kansas and Harper's Ferry.
Bro, that MacArthur tho. Lol. Pipe and everything.
Hands down, one of the greatest generals in our history.
@@allaware1971 why thank you
Why did you betray the Bonus Army of WW1 vets?
I miss the 90s and early 2000s song 😭
You can listen again.

To many in Gen Z it seemed like a wonderful time. So I like the depiction. Also, he can’t include everything.
@@robertortiz-wilson1588as a Gen Z, it was NOT a wonderful time
@@sabresergal8989 I know. But we were very young.
@@robertortiz-wilson1588 That doesn’t mean we aren’t aware of our surroundings and environment.
@@sabresergal8989 yes, to different degrees of course. I remember heavy 9/11 remembrance days in school, but nothing about the 2008 recession and reactions until I could connect and recontextualize a few things after the fact years later. It’s also easier to remember current aspects of childhood more unless you’re more selective. I didn’t pay attention to the 2012 election in any meaningful way. 2015 to 2016 was the beginning of my speed run, roller coaster political awakening. There.
Also, it all depends on individual’s family and environmental experiences too, obviously.
The first video where American history is not evil or perfect. Wow
The 2000s were such a time to grow up in.
Not really bro, kind of standard same as anyone else alive
@@UndisputedBillyBadass except we had good video games and cartoons
The Jamestown image showed puritan clothes
So no one in the 1600's actually wore buckled hats, its a weird Victorian invention
However puritans did prefer to wear "sadd colors" aka all black.
What I'm saying is that the puritans were early modern goths
Yeah its a bit ironic, since Virginia was an Anglican/ Episcopalian colony while the Puritans settled further to the north in Massachussets.
🤓👆
👆🏳🌈
@@kalacaptain4818werent the Goths early modern goths?
Its really crazy to think about just how fast history has moved in America. In just 200 years we've gone through the rises and falls and cycles that other countries/civilizations did over multiple centuries or even thousands of years. The generation raised around the time of the revolution would have lived to see the Civil War or at least the buildup to it, and all of the expansion and manifest destiny before it, the generation that fought in the Civil war lived the see the world wars and the atomic bomb, and some of the generation that fought in WW2 is still alive today. A lot of historians draw similarities between America and Rome and for good reason, but America seems to be taking the course of Rome but 10 times faster, like a civilizational speedrun. I wonder what's the reason for that?
growth of technology, primarily
Now the question is, how will it end?
Education and Democracy

Desert Storm, Granada, and Panama invasion too
0:58 that song is a Mexican perspective song from the Batalion San Patricio, an artillery regiment made of Irish Catholics who deserted from the US Army
I was wondering about that makes sense for the time honestly
Understandable there, Texas fighting Mexico just because they didn’t like what they were doing, and letting slaves be free, I too would have deserted
@@CallofDutyBlackOps28 I think it was more because Mexicans are staunch catholics and the US was wary of them at the time
The Irish stay true to their beliefs even throughout grim odds. Their country’s history is testimony to that. Gotta respect it.
@@CallofDutyBlackOps28 the battalion was made up of Irish deserters who deserted because the US Army treated them horribly for being Catholics and punished them for "deserting" cause they went to a Mexican catholic church.

First Colony: Roanoke
St. Augustine: "Excuse me what the fuck"
St. Augustine was settled by spaniards who held it until 1811, so it isnt part of the cultural, historical, or narrative canon of the U.S, until well after Jamestown
@@accidiaet exactly.
@@accidiaetThat sounds like non-US history
@@accidiaet well, in that case pre columbian era shouldnt be neither an era, but as americans you can deny your spaniard heritage, with cities called san francisco and las vegas, or lots of churches and nearly 1.000.000 american citizens with direct ancestry from Spain
What about Vinland?
Only 70s, 80s, 90s and 2000s are fondly remembered. 2010s and 2020s are ugly
Only in hindsight it looks to be fond, but we are clouded by nostalgia.
Just you see, in 30 years ,we/the next generation will say the same thing about the 2010's, and the 2020's.
once you peal back a layer of skin and nostalgia, the 1970's and 2000's look a lot uglier
the 2000s was pretty shitty for most, it's only good if your a millennial/zoomer who grew up then
thats just because of nostolgia, some really crazy and bad shit went on during the 70s 80s and 90s
tbh 2010s was still tolerable, but by mid 2015s thats when the sjw are on the rise
America peaked in the 90s. Though growing up in the 2000s was still good.
I have little reason of worrying boys, the correction will eventually come.
In one way or another.

@@batmann2723 govt, entire market system, shareholding, more work against monopolies which ruin everything, inflation, politics being old and detached from reality, lobbying and its impact on people (like neglecting railways because companies need to sell more battleship sized pickup trucks so they need more lanes etc)

Roanoke is not a mystery. Many, many colonies went native. Otherwise, they would have died.
They literally left a note on a tree that they joined the Croatoan tribe.

You used in the mood for The roaring 20s??? Dude, that came out in like the forties lol
You forgot one thing in the pre Colombian part. There was a civilization in I think it was Nevada that build great cities with really tall houses and had an interesting religious community. They unfortunately created their own downfall since a lot of wood was needed for everything, especially the for the buildings and they cut down every tree in their once fruitful valley and since everything in that region is otherwise desert and they had to abandon their cities and build a new „last fortress“ wich lasted for fifty years. Then they left again and their traces where lost.
