Thank you to a group of artists, who decided to help me. When i started in October 2019, I had no idea how much work it would be. Without their help it would have taken longer. Support this channel!

If I knew I could get so many likes I should have used better grammar. It's hard to read what I wrote.

2020-10-05 00:41:44 +0000 UTCI was very impressed by the last few videos, in particular the India & Pakistan one. I’ve been interested in geopolitics, history and current affairs for more than 30 years. However, I’ve always lamented the lack of non-Western centric content so I’m continuously searching for other viewpoints whenever possible – even (and more importantly) if I don’t agree with them. I was particularly blown away by the three Turkish videos. Initially I was reluctant to commit the time to view them but the moment I started I was completely engrossed on the arguments and narrative. The longer format also allows to slow down the pace of the narration which in my opinion felt a little rushed on some of the previous videos. Anyway, the Turkish series covers a wide range of topics which might seem unrelated at first but the videos fill the gaps beautifully leading to a clear view of the big picture and how all these different factors influence current events, as seen now in the Nagorno-Karabakh. I’ve never become a Patron before despite loving many Youtubers but after seeing the Turkish series masterpiece I felt obliged to support you. Thank you and well done. …PS I do love the countryball illustrations – please do keep using them

2020-09-30 12:05:17 +0000 UTCIn case you're curious yes 周 is my last name in Mandrin and yes it links my ancestry to the Zhou dynasty 周朝. am half Chinese. I am actually not new to your channel - exactly. I had watched at least one of your videos back in (2016?); I noticed that watched the Socialist Realism video this year, I had actually seen the video before around the time when you originally posted it. I kind of just stopped watching the anti-SJW (whatever you want to call it) channels around that time. I had completely forgotten your channel existed until January this year when I stumbled across some of your videos (Muh Nazi meme) video, (a video that expressed all of the angry I had toward the same kinds of people). I then watched the Embracing Tyranny to Own the Libs, which was video that one really grabbed my attention and made an impression on me. And the rest including the Trump's Biggest Failure the first time I had ever heard someone discuss XiJinPing's background. It's really interesting rediscovering your channel 4 years after I last watched it, and seeing where you have taken it.

2020-09-30 11:54:18 +0000 UTCNot just good video but excellent topic as well. I really think you chose a good topic though I don't blame you for getting tired of it later. I felt that I lot of what was said in the video needed be said. I like the Ben. Franklin quote int eh 2nd video.

2020-09-29 21:05:27 +0000 UTCFirst. thank you for this comprehensive and thorough historical and political review of Turkey! I do feel that this third video could of been so much more, has the pressure of getting it done got to you? (PS: I always re look my university papers and have a facepalm moment when i know what i wanted to achieve vs what i had time for!) Basically i feel like you cut out a lot of the material to finally get it done!

2020-09-29 21:03:10 +0000 UTCSee , this is what we expect from the News , they just drop that Turkey is right wing and therefore Bad . I need context , how did they get there , why is it bad , if its bad why are so many people supporting it . Treating us like a bunch of 3 year olds with ADHD and treating complex social and geo political issues like WWE matches is why i cant stand watching most news . Keep up the Good work man
