The new god of the Han vs the new god of the Anglos. Which will you worship?
>>220749151I liked the schizo breakdown of the one on the right where he kept going on about his masturbation habits for some reason.
>>220749151PROFESSOR Jiang. Greetings from Islamabad.
>>220749151I gave both of these guys a shot (5+ hours of content watched from both. Here's what I think:Jiang>Holistic to a fault, will attempt to connect matters from the bowels of history to present even if it's by the thinnest conceptual thread. E.g. the Peloponnesian War and Iran. >Little concern with functional knowledge and incredibly reductive. E.g. will claim Calvinism is the worship of money yet fail to explain why they ran at a loss in all of their colonial operations.>Lives up to his title of 'predictive' historian since the back end of his lectures are largely speculative.>Far too concerned with semantics and etymology, the guy thinks a pun is a revelation.>Highly involved in conspiratorial speculation.Rudyard Lynch>Will talk about how many books he's read, but never explain why he read them or what manner of research he was conducting.>Will talk about the people who wrote the books more than the content.>Far too much interest in sequencing narratives rather than just explaining what's happening, but to his credit he'll bring up conditions very often. Things like climate, tech development, politics, etc. >Will shove his personal opinions into history, he has a very clear libertarian bias and his co-hosts are often mouth breathing retards.>Unbiased when it comes to religion.>Very detailed, but hard to follow especially in his 102 series where he maps all of his data out.
Jiang series about civilization history from stone age to modernity is very good. he thinks more like nietzsche than he realizes, but he is apparently interested in gnosticism now. imo he's gonna have a faith crisis his whole life
>>220749437>>Will talk about how many books he's read, but never explain why he read them or what manner of research he was conducting.Normgroids like you should be killed.
never understood jiang , why is he called proffessor are there really people who go to uni to study under him ? go into student debt just to hear his schizo rambles ? what even is his subject called ? geopolitical sciences ? are there really peeps who study that and not go broke ?

>>220749151Two shizos?
>>220749151Rudyard, my brother in Odin
>>220750899he's a hs teacher, from what i understand in a very prestigious school
>>220751840the asian guy on the left admits that he's just vibing it out, and saying things that aren't backed up by any facts. It's unclear whether or not he knows that he's a grifting liar, or if he genuinely thinks that the things he says have some real information value. The young guy on the right clearly had a mental breakdown, and filmed long segments of it.
>>220749151Jiang went all in on Al Aqsa being blown up and US invading Iranif those 2 things don't happen, his whole psychohistory meme theory falls apart
where does jiang get his epic memes?
>>220755680IRA phenotype guy is Sevres standard of based retard I did not agree with him often and he has presumptions which fell off really bad due to recent events but ultimately if you want nuanced unfiltered opinions on what troubles modern world you need to reach out to him
>>220749151>leftRetard grifter jumping on the latest money train>rightPretty based and his videos are interesting to watch
>>220749437based high quality post
>>220750899I think he teaches at a rich kids school in China the point being to prepare students to study in the USbut idk if they'll let him live much longerin his latest "midterm" he basically called China a meme fake country and he said his students are wasting their time learning English and trying to get a US diplomaI don't think he's a psyop desu he's like a weird anomaly in the system that somehow got through the filters
>>220758296yeah sometimes people overthink these figures as psyops, it could easily be a sincere person who just watches a lot of youtube and listens to alt media and absorbs all the weird conspiracy and geopolitics stuff
>>220749151one on the right is little more than a redditor who spends too much time on r/MapPorn and nobody besides techbros gives a shit about him how are they even comparable?
>>220757695Ricel logic>Kill a countries entire leadership>B-BUT YOU LOST A FEW PLANESThe seethe at BWC superiority is hilarious
>>220758296>in his latest "midterm" he basically called China a meme fake country and he said his students are wasting their time learning English and trying to get a US diplomaThese two statements are contradictory If China is a fake country shouldn't you want to get certified by another country?
>>220758535I'm not a Jiang scholar but I think his point is that China's recent and rapid growth wasn't organicit was basically "allowed" by the financial system and central banks or sum shiet like that and so China is heavily dependant on the current economic system to continue and they're not actually independant at all (hence the mirage country thing)and he says the American global empire is over and that America will retreat back into it's fortress to fight a 100 year soft civil warand the rest of the world will mostly be fucked and in comparison America won't be so badidk that's what I understood
