The thing about channels like RealLifeLore is that in hindsight they never were that good. RLL always was just fancy graphics making you feel like you were learning something, but what can you actually say you learned from that channel in hindsight?

Anyone who calls historical analysis "real life lore" should be shot.

obvs fuck this particular account, but i don't blame people trying to market themselves better with fellow-kids lingo, especially a harder sell like history/edutainment content on a site where most clicks go to billionaires gaffawing at the camera while people fight for cash behind them

I remember somebody posted his why Africa is poor video where he glosses over colonialism in like the first 15 seconds and never mentions it again

He's always been boring. Every RLL video I've watched left me thinking "I knew all that already, and it's making me feel like I'm wasting my life". I guess most people don't have those thoughts whenever what's on screen is changing every 2 seconds (Second Thought was guilty of this too, bad habits that die hard).

Also he's using the CPC's hammer-and-sickle logo. Low-effort video slop poster.

I found a YouTube link in your post. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
