In protest of Charlie boy’s coronation, a friend and I went to see the new Guardians of the galaxy film and gave some money to homeless people. I did catch some of the coronation on the radio. I almost crashed my car by laughing when Archbishop of Canterbury compared Charlie boy to Jesus: “Like Jesus Christ was put on this earth to serve mankind, King Charles is here to serve the public as the ultimate public servant”, wow!
As the head of the Anglican Church, he wants to be connected with the guy in the book that the Church wrote. His track record is better than the Pope’s at least.

Lincoln is an interesting case. You could argue he was constrained by class structures in his treatment of first nations, i.e. alleviating social conflict among settlers through genocide, but he alone of 19th century US presidents had a viable opportunity to instead expropriate a hostile segment of the settlercolonial elite but tried as much as he could to avoid using it.
In other words he could have bought off American peasants and workers with land from purged slave owners rather than exclusively using land from murdered idigenous.
One interesting thought occurred to me about Lincoln/the Civil War when I was reading the last chapter of Capital on the theory of colonization. Simply put, the only way for industry to generate profits in America without owning slave/indentured labor and plantation land was for immigration to east coast cities to outspeed the rate at which people can leave those cities to settle on land in the west. In other words, would be capitalists in the American north, prior to the Industrial Revolution, could not employ people into positions of exploitation that would allow for capital accumulation because they would just quit and go out on the homestead since the land was basically free. The Industrial Revolution drove people out of Ireland after industrial farmers bought up all the land, and this wave of migration created the surplus population necessary in the NE states for northern capitalists to kickstart factory industry, and it was this accumulation of capital that created the incentive for the northern bourgeoisie to oppose southern slavery. If you look at the writing on the wall, in terms of how class incentives were represented at that time, it really recontextualizes the civil war. Certainly genuinely passionate abolitionists existed and had influence, but the primary political motive for Republicans at the time was not to free black labor, but to end the southern monopoly on black labor and bring that surplus population north to man their factories as wage slaves.
The reason for this is that import of new slaves had been banned decades earlier, meaning they were a lot more expensive - on top of several northern states ha v ING always been slavery-free
@@zainmudassir2964 I forgot about the function of emancipation in the war. From a very literal perspective, Lincolcn openly admits that the biggest reason for the emancipation proclamation was to use black soldiers(laborers) to win the war.
The quintessential hat of the revolution is Budenovka. Ushanka was an older pattern used in many parts of the world and by many different groups with different political affiliations, and was in fact adopted as part of a military uniform by the White Russian army first
Off topic about Hats , i know it was a style for Grenadiers of the early 18th century to have Mitre Caps ( One of those priest catholic style of hats ) and up till the revolution the Russians maintained that Mitre cap for one of the Grenadier Regiments , very cool and very quirky
I read Chompsky's Deterring Democracy. I don't recall him mentioning anything about capitalism needed to do this to exist, but it did lead me in a more leftward direction.
Cowboy hats are the best. I'm a punk by heart and usually dress the part, but I got a cowboy hat and boots for an event, and now I wear that outfit at least once a week.
I'm with Hakim here: F hats! Scarf supremacy! Also people are sleeping on those robes or whatever they're called. They're the most comfortable thing you can wear in the summer. Westoids be wearing jeans in +40C weather and wondering why they're uncomfortable...
Ummm, but what about the fact, that Karl Marx himself literally praised Linkoln in his articles and wrote several open letters to Old Abe with support of his actions? Besides, many German communists, who emigrated to the US during this time, fought in the Grand Army pf the Republic, and New York communist club supported Lincoln in his electorial campaign
But he was critical of how moderate Lincoln was, and opposed his efforts to appease supporters of slavery. Marx was more of a supporter of radical abolitionists, along the lines of Thaddeus Stephens.
Critical support for him for freeing the slaves, critical because he was still very much liberal. But liberal society is better than slaveholding society.
Description of Mayakovsky's poem "150 million" from Wikipedia: «In Chicago, a monstrously rich wonder-city, the world revolution's worst enemy Woodrow Wilson abides in a giant hotel, sporting a bowler-hat "higher than Sukharev Tower." Among his servants Adelina Patti, Fyodor Chalyapin and Ilya Mechnikov are notable. The rumor of a storm coming from the Pacific spreads among the people of Chicago, sunbathing on the ocean beach. Soon it transpires that the reason behind this cataclysm is mysterious Ivan's approaching them, walking on water. Wilson makes a decision to confront the enemy face to face, gets all of his fat turned into muscles by some magic ointment and arms himself with revolvers and a 70-blade sabre. The world gets divided into two: half of it joins Ivan (in fact, merges with him, physically), the other half runs away for Wilson's protection. Ivan steps upon the beach without having wetted his feet, and challenges Wilson, now clad in armory, for a showdown. The "World Class Struggle Championship Final" takes place on Chicago's central square. Wilson strikes first and slashed armless Ivan, but out of the wound, instead of blood, peoples, machines, gubernias, et cetera start to pour out to attack the old world.» Am I the only one who wants to see an anime based on this?

Cultural appropriation is a neutral term, virtually every part of every culture is to some extent appropriated. To deny this is to either know nothing about other cultures and very little about one's own, or to have one's brain poisoned by capitalist copyright thinking. The point is that colonisers use appropriation to pretend they're respecting their victims and obfuscate the ongoing oppression , or that they take cultural items that are reserved to specific people (like war hero headdresses of native americans).
I just finished writing my undergraduate thesis on a Milwaukee socialist who was arrested during ww1 for his vocal opposition to the war.

To be fair, it was really important that we all got together to fight World War I, famous for being the most justified, humane, and point-full war of all time. Same reason we couldn't do anything about Spanish Flu, and in fact spread it further on bases and troopships by bringing thousands of sick men further together. The cause was just too right.
Fun fact about the Navajo: in WWII, they were used to encode messages by the US government, because Navajo is so radically different from other languages that no one outside the tribe could decode it. They were not allowed to vote. Good enough to serve, bad enough to be viewed as "suspect" and "anti-American" if they didn't, not human enough to be allowed to vote in a country they served in the military of. We carry on that proud colonial legacy in the US to this day by making it so American Samoans have to enlist to escape poverty, then not letting them vote *and* not putting a single veteran hospital or psychological resource in Samoa for them.

If you guys do another episode about the US presidents I'd like to see one about Jimmy Carter. The main thing I know about him is that after his presidency he built homes for the homeless, so it would be interesting to find out what fucked up shit he was trying to atone for.

I never wonder for long because after looking at stuff like this you’ll immediately find white people looking to either defend it or whitewash it. So it’s not really hard to see how such evil comes to be
I can not BELIEVE you didn’t talk about Lincoln’s relationship with Marx!!! I am convinced that perhaps although Lincoln’s emancipation proclamation was mostly to prevent Europe from supporting the confederacy during the Civil War, I am confident also that Marx may have helped alleviate some of his more racist beliefs, but alas Marx could never convince him that wage labor was also another form of slavery.
If we are going to discard an entire historical process because its protagonists such as Washington and Lincoln had personal attributes that were not good, we can talk a lot about the underage lovers of Mao and Stalin and how Stalin tried to exterminate the Muslim peoples of the Caucasus and the Germans of the Volga
Oh Marx the All-Knowing, it has only now come to my attention that you are simply organizing university seminars, where every student in the group was supposed to prepare a report, but only three did so, while the rest sat and listened. You such a nerds. What a nerd am I for listening to this for almost 80 episodes.
Teeeeechnically George Washington never said all people are created equal. That was Jefferson's poetry. The "revolution" was not so revolutionary at the time. It was landed noblemen upset that the king did not believe they had the same rights as landed noblemen in the British Isles. Take the right to bear arms. No, this was not granted to "put down slave revolts." The government army be it called a "militia" or otherwise does not need legal protections to keep it from being stripped of arms. That's nonsense. No, the thought process behind the 2nd Amendment is that going back to well... Rome, the only people denied weapons were SLAVES. Free men in society not only had the right to bear arms but were expected to do so to defend the community while under attack. The justification of bondsmen (serfs) was that they exchanged "protection" for their service and were denied weapons and not expected to fight. So from the founders perspective to deny them weapons is to declare them untrustworthy of power and well... as slaves. Of course that's a great example of how even genocidal people can be correct on one point. It blows my mind how many leftists there are that scream "power to the people!" while also saying "ban guns!" Ok, pick one. Banning guns is based upon the premise that the people as a whole cannot be trusted with power and will only devolve into murderous animals when trusted with it. That thought process was behind monarchy and all similar forms of government. That's why Europe spent 50 years building the EU, a governing body in which no elected official can write, propose, nor propose the repeal of legislation. They eliminated even the little power the voting public had in their system because they feel that the public cannot be trusted and at best, if they grant the public the power to do so they will vote for Hitler again. So the right to bear arms is a good first principles moment. Do you believe people can be trusted with power, or do you believe they will become murderous and pick Hitler if given the chance again? If you believe the latter you aren't a communist, you're just a monarchist.

On a road trip cross country, we had a lot of ganja. We put a Jesus fish sticker on the bumper plus some other Christian stickers. If we had gotten pulled over, we were ready to start singing Christian hymns. 😎
Hope you cover Kenedy at some point
Cool episode. Bad Empanada next.
Fantastic episode
What about that one US president who died like a month in?
also this should absolutely be a series
Harrison ? Major Indian murderer, absolutely a war criminal (that's where he got the fame he rode into the White House).
He came in as a war hero, so yes
@@Bob-bs9ok ah.
Garfield then?
100% of US presidents being war criminals is absolutely true for the ones that were really remembered but Im not sure about the obscure ones.
(would also like to know Grant's warcrimes, tho they were probably against Native Americans as was exceedingly common (if not to 100%) pre 20th century)
@@winsonzhu4427 Grant was also the one who invaded half of Mexico and tried to annex the Dominican Republic, wasn't he?
SIREIS PLZ
Bro that whole Nancy pelosi shtick had me rolling
Would you consider investigating Kissinger? Although, he never was president, his foreign policy has impacted post Modern politics. He has also managed to be an advisor to other policy leaders.
I don't know how often y'all get this question, but who did your intro music, and is there any way I can get my hands on it
I would say that the US history textbook version of early US history is boring it feels like the historical topic equivalent of a white dude in khakis
It’s kilometers, not kilometers.
Monarchy is just tf2! The bigger the hat, the more powerful the person.
Great choice by Yugo to not mention the horrors of the civil wars against Lincoln 😈
Great choice not for you to ever bring up the fact that Lincoln despite claimed as a goody two shoes never stopped the genocide that happened to the najavo tribes
@ well they brought that up in the video. Between the horrors he wrought on the confederacy and the horrors he wrought on the Navajo, only one of those was legit
Best hat is toque
Surprised no one mentioned Warren G. Harding sexy love letters
For the algo rhythm.
If you guys do another episode about the US presidents I'd like to see one about Jimmy Carter. The main thing I know about him is that after his presidency he built homes for the homeless, so it would be interesting to find out what fucked up shit he was trying to atone for.
All these presidents either are slaves to the bourgeois or just plainly support them in the sociopathic culture that American culture teaches them
How the hell does Yugopnik know Tiwa Savage 😂😂😂😂
He does market research and business work, so knowing cultural trends is part of it.
P.S. In a capitalist system, they pretend to be socially aware instead of manufacturing desire for stuff you otherwise would not want!
Kìlometre vs Kilòmetre depends on the language. In German, Russian, etc it's Kìlometer, while in Italian, Spanish, etc it's Kilòmetro. In English it's technically the second, but the first one is used as well.
Chomsky
I would be interested to hear more about how Chomsky is an anti-communist shill. I've always enjoyed his writing and he was one of the first people that started me thinking about how politics is broken (that and listening to Prime Ministers Questions in The House). Are you saying Chomsky is disingenuous or just lacking something?
Also, Thanks for the great work... it pulls me back sometimes when I fall into despair.
A little of both. He has to be disingenuous to think communists are a bigger problem than his friend Epstein
LOL - JT the Commie Cowboy.
Sometimes i wonder how such evil came to be...
I never wonder for long because after looking at stuff like this you’ll immediately find white people looking to either defend it or whitewash it. So it’s not really hard to see how such evil comes to be
But Lincoln saved us from the vampires
algo comment thanks for the content comrades
JAJAJA the hatssssssss, the hatssssss. at least presidents dont use hats, they use suits
What's the hat that hakim is talkin about
I wish i could wear hats... they never have any in my size.
Epic
JT we had a draft during the civil war
Kid named finger
Ya'll should seek out an indigenous socialist to guest on this series!
Great video. Would love to see this become a series
Please put attention on the war on refugees across the world.
Is there an episode on personal property ?
42:42
Nooooooooo not Jimmy ! I thought he was the good one !!!
But not our Jimmy! Couldn’t be precious Jimmy! Stealing them blind. And he gets to be the President? What a sick joke.
HE DEFECATED THROUGH A SUNROOF
I can not BELIEVE you didn’t talk about Lincoln’s relationship with Marx!!!
I am convinced that perhaps although Lincoln’s emancipation proclamation was mostly to prevent Europe from supporting the confederacy during the Civil War, I am confident also that Marx may have helped alleviate some of his more racist beliefs, but alas Marx could never convince him that wage labor was also another form of slavery.
smh even Lincoln was an incrementalist
Can you do south Africa presidents
Pre or post 1994? It would be a fun episode though
@@HakimButSouthAfrican both
I support this Misrepresentated Characters from History stuff
If we are going to discard an entire historical process because its protagonists such as Washington and Lincoln had personal attributes that were not good, we can talk a lot about the underage lovers of Mao and Stalin and how Stalin tried to exterminate the Muslim peoples of the Caucasus and the Germans of the Volga
What can I say after all this sh*t being thrown against the fan? Nothing
As a French-Italian, I am heavily offended by the first 20 minutes of this video.
😭😭😭😭being both French and Italian I would recommend watching the Hasanabi broadcast there’s a fun surprise waiting there 😂
Oh Marx the All-Knowing, it has only now come to my attention that you are simply organizing university seminars, where every student in the group was supposed to prepare a report, but only three did so, while the rest sat and listened. You such a nerds. What a nerd am I for listening to this for almost 80 episodes.
That moment when the commies ask if th e nationalists are ok.
What's all about the french bashing?
The French deserve it 😂😂😂
Teeeeechnically George Washington never said all people are created equal. That was Jefferson's poetry. The "revolution" was not so revolutionary at the time. It was landed noblemen upset that the king did not believe they had the same rights as landed noblemen in the British Isles.
Take the right to bear arms. No, this was not granted to "put down slave revolts." The government army be it called a "militia" or otherwise does not need legal protections to keep it from being stripped of arms. That's nonsense. No, the thought process behind the 2nd Amendment is that going back to well... Rome, the only people denied weapons were SLAVES. Free men in society not only had the right to bear arms but were expected to do so to defend the community while under attack. The justification of bondsmen (serfs) was that they exchanged "protection" for their service and were denied weapons and not expected to fight. So from the founders perspective to deny them weapons is to declare them untrustworthy of power and well... as slaves.
Of course that's a great example of how even genocidal people can be correct on one point. It blows my mind how many leftists there are that scream "power to the people!" while also saying "ban guns!" Ok, pick one. Banning guns is based upon the premise that the people as a whole cannot be trusted with power and will only devolve into murderous animals when trusted with it. That thought process was behind monarchy and all similar forms of government. That's why Europe spent 50 years building the EU, a governing body in which no elected official can write, propose, nor propose the repeal of legislation. They eliminated even the little power the voting public had in their system because they feel that the public cannot be trusted and at best, if they grant the public the power to do so they will vote for Hitler again. So the right to bear arms is a good first principles moment. Do you believe people can be trusted with power, or do you believe they will become murderous and pick Hitler if given the chance again? If you believe the latter you aren't a communist, you're just a monarchist.
Typical western colonizer rhetoric trying to justify themselves
