Truly the smartest person of our time
(quokk.au)
The takes on this guy on 4chins is funny because it's clear from the comments none of them have attended a lecture before or advanced beyond the remedial classes they needed to get their HS diploma.
Like yeah, that's how education works. You take concepts that everybody understands and build upon them to teach new concepts.
Who is this guy? Someone else mentioned Man Carrying Thing, but that’s a skit channel, and not in China like another person said.
Jiang Xueqin, aka Professor Jiang or 'China's Nostradamus', because he makes informed predictions. He has a youtube channel called Predictive History that is portrayed like a 101-level lecture about various geopolitical things, but it's for the cameras with off-camera "students" asking things now and then. He has some good takes and some bad, and people like to praise him for being really intelligent or shit on him for being a Chinese media op, neither of which are definitively true.
"Informed predictions" my ass lmao. He states the most obvious shit about geopolitics and then goes off on a creationist/pseudoscientist tangent.
Don't forget the part where he has stated openly (last chapter) that the 'source' for the things he says is not anything he has read or learned, but 'the universe communicating with him,' or 'a voice from on high.'
yeah i suppose i was phrasing things a little generously, but you seem like you know a lot more about him than myself. appreciate the clarification.
nw :)
Interesting, this is the first I’ve heard of him or the channel. Thanks!
Its hit normie circles and he has takes that some might consider anti-Semitic which is most of the reason he is so popular/controversial right now.
It sounds like if I watch any of his videos it will need to be with a critical mind and an eye toward further paths of research from other sources.
Yeah, the information is broad and entertaining and a place to find concepts to research further, but beyond that you kind of need to take everything with a truckload of salt. Although that's everything nowadays, everything has an agenda, probably always has.
Yeah, his videos are interesting but I must admit I do find the somewhat fake "lecture" style off putting. It made as if he's lecturing to a class of people and there are even fake western "students" asking questions at the end. But the guy is in China, and these are clearly produced for a new audience but dressed up as if it is educational. I can see why he does it - it lends an air of authority to the videos, and it is engaging, but the conceit of it being a real lecture undermines it.
I read this in Mr. Mackey's voice mmkay.
Okay
