This Youtube channel called 'It's History' seems to have a plausible enough motivation: to tell history from photographs and historical records. But there's more to learn from this single channel than most would probably realize:
-
The repeated use of "It's History" is a smart branding of the channel. However, it also repeatedly enforces that here is an authority you should listen to. After a watch of two or ten videos, that phrase will be read and reread hundreds of times, reinforcing that "you're getting your education, and THIS is history"; but you're simply consuming someone's regurgitated writing. You didn't do research, you didn't confirm or negate their claims.

BT bone-conducting headphones ad insert. Bluetooth headphones by Raycon seem to be recommended by a number of key political pop up pundits lately. The big ones. The ones that get huge subscriber counts (none are artificially inflated, right?). Bluetooth headphones that can pass signals to your skull and transmit information. This makes me highly suspicious of this brand in particular because such a noteworthy CI channel is recommending it. Now let's move on....
-
VPN service insert. Ok, ok, so you want me to ingest your propaganda about what is history or what isn't history and you want me on your VPN that isn't run by the government and bluetooth headphones that aren't run by the governments companies or shell companies? OK! I'm on board bro.

The claims about historical locations are merely regurgitated Wikipedia tales. For example, regarding a massive concrete pour for a sea wall in San Francisco, there was no documents or evidence of why this occurred. Just claims explaining "Well, the San Francisco settlers were too dumb to figure out building on the water wasn't a safe way to construct a city... so they got smart and poured millions of pounds of concrete at great expense, also digging up gigantic ditches and performing immense feats in their days. They were just too dumb and fast at building things. Things were poppin!"
Even taking a moment to regard his narrative, you can see he put no real depth to his research. Wikipedia references. No thought to alternatives to explain these anomalous builds. The channel goes on and on with numerous such fairy tales explaining "history".
The takeaway for the mass media consumer is "I've gotten really smart. My head is ringing and I want to buy tacos suddenly while using my Raycons. Government is God-- er, I mean, It's History is such a great well-meaning agent of the gov!"
New media is a bunch of guys cosplaying as civilians. They aren't well meaning and they're traitorous humans who have turned on their own for the sake of $100k+ and bonuses for lying. The scare jockeys of Tik Tok are no better. With time, I'm sure there will be weeping and gnashing for all this deception done to countless millions who naively trust a pretty youtube channel logo, a slogan, a plausible motivation to run a channel. But to me it stinks to all hell.
I picked this one out of the thousands because of its boldness to claim "It's History" and the sheer number of topics that indicate the gov is highly interested in disinfo on Old World and Tartaria, or even pre Tartary civilizations that are long gone now. The veil has been lifted and they listened in the last 5 years to the growing communities that are ripping it to shreds. That stuff hit mainstream with a tiny blip but has been roaring through Mc-Graw Hill textbooks like an 8000-ton missile.
PS: I'm sure if he has a podcast, those Raycons make him extra convincing. Make sure to also put the highly safe and privacy-protecting Airpods in your purses ladies (for extra GPS friendly privacy)!
