    Agreed, and is that style of thumbnail/preview pic standard for that channel? The annoying grammar and cookiecutter mobileshit game art style leads me to believe this channel is aiming their garbage at children and teenagers.

      Yes, this channel is mass produced “edutainment” garbage designed to “teach” teenagers history through American propaganda.

        Fucking hell, and those view counts. This is obscene. I don’t want to imagine how many unsuspecting kids and teens are out there growing up and stumbling on this brain-scrambling trash.

          The insidious reality of propaganda. The children of the Hitler Youth were not to blame, as reactionaries know that if they can latch on and meld a person when they are young; then they will have a devote follower for decades to come.

          How much do you think it costs the state department to quietly push content like that? Barely anything, but the return on investment is immense.

          Go to their channel, they have hundreds of anti-communist, pro-west, pro-capitalist, reactionary videos that have tens of millions of views.
