  • Given recent events, I think it's time to grasp a bit of history about US insurrections. Far from being exceptional, these events are almost commonplace in American history, the problem is, we all thought we were done with this kind of unrest.

    Wiki: Rebellion, uprising, or insurrection is a refusal of obedience or order.[1] It refers to the open resistance against the orders of an established authority.
    A rebellion originates from a sentiment of indignation and disapproval of a situation and then manifests itself by the refusal to submit or to obey the authority responsible for this situation. Rebellion can be individual or collective, peaceful (civil disobedience, civil resistance, and nonviolent resistance) or violent (terrorism, sabotage and guerrilla warfare.)
    In political terms, rebellion and revolt are often distinguished by their different aims. If rebellion generally seeks to evade and/or gain concessions from an oppressive power, a revolt seeks to overthrow and destroy that power, as well as its accompanying laws. The goal of rebellion is resistance while a revolt seeks a revolution.[citation needed] As power shifts relative to the external adversary, or power shifts within a mixed coalition, or positions harden or soften on either side, an insurrection may seesaw between the two forms.

    As a Holocaust historian the fact that they are suppressing actual history about that atrocity and yet promoting antisemitic rhetoric is absolutely appalling. I mean, it doesn't completely surprise me but at the same time... what the hell?

    As a Puertorican, I want to thank you for telling the story of our nationalist movement in the 50’s. They played an important role un our political history. But as it is with empires, our history books here gloss this part over.

    I fear the downfall of this republic will be one of mass stupidity, and the failure of education. That is why I commend you, and your efforts to inform the masses.

    Too bad that people would just scream "fake history" when historians do their jobs.

    A more accurate translation of "Viva la revolución, abajo los asesinos" is "long live the revolution, down with the murderers".

    Shay's rebellion! I haven't heard that name since high school even my spouse hadn't heard about it. I guess that's what I get from being from a former colony of Massachusetts.

    So glad someone started talking about Trump's cult of personality, I don't think I've heard one UA-camr or media member mention those exact words before. For context, "cult of personality" is one crucial ingredient to dictatorship.

    As a seattlite the CHAZ was a failure and fell to same flaws as the normal police. I wish you had mentiones the June 29/30 incident of 2 black teens being shot (14yr old and 16yr old) and one being murdered in an execution by the CHAZ guards. You can find footage even of them rummaging through thier car and hearing one saying in a smug tone, "Oh youre not dead?" Followed by a gunshot.

    As an archivist, I’m glad you are showing how conspiracies are not facts, and don’t hold up over time.
