Do you want more Alt Shift X videos about the real world?

Another weird video essay: czcams.com/video/i0g84Eiiw-4/video.html
Haven’t seen the video yet, but sounds good!
Yes bring us more
yes :)
Yes, the real world is at it's most interesting mid-season right now, with no end in sight for the coronavirus arc and china vs everyone else tradewar storyline, also the trump vs biden election arc is coming very soon.
I’m going to enjoy my day?
This is very well made. If this is the direction you want to take, a blend of fantasy, sci-fi, lore from books and series, real life history and philosophy, I wholly support you.
The soothing voice makes it so much better. I highly appreciate this direction of new videos. Keep it up Alt Shift, we love this!
Here here. We need well-researched lessons on philosophy in real-life, too.
Bump
I thought it was great
Yeah this is awesome!
If this is the way this channel is going after Game of Thrones, I’m all for it
The real world is far too unrealistic.
Alt Shift X could do commentary on my day and make it awesome
Agreed
Same, absolutely
Frankly an amazing video
Only this channel could quote Kanye West like he's a historical figure from the 12th century. I love it.
He’s Yeezus tho
@@user-jb7ep1eb8g 💀👏 underrated comment
Like it or not Kayne is going to be one of the most influential figures of our time when historians in the future look back at us mow
True lol
@@user-jb7ep1eb8g Yeezus ChrEast for the president!
I remember when I was a kid and thought that the adults were in charge and knew what they were doing. Then I grew up and realized the adults were always pretending and didn't have any idea what they were doing and had no control at all. They were all just putting on a show for the kids.
And even that can fail. I'm a 14 year old and I have a good grasp on History and Politics.
@@arkcliref The world is not to be understood. Stay humble youngin. Act as you wish, but understand you are human. Compassion, honor, curiosity, and hate, all examples of human traits. We are composed of atoms as are the trees in our yards. As is the dirt under our toes. As are the letters and the cellular device in which I am communicating this message. Be human. Hug your grandparents. It’ll make you feel love. Avoid those who lie, as it’ll make you feel betrayed to persist tolerance with their activities.
We are human. We write alphabets just like the dog licks it’s balls. We are animal, we exist as such. Language, math, religion, no matter how large you go, it is a matter of thought. And thoughts are just as natural as the dirt under our toes.
Meanwhile the old refuse to this day to give up control to younger generations and continue to lead us down a path of destruction.
Lmao "no control at all" they control you through the youtube algorithm, the ads they show you, the foods they feed you, the ideologies they subtly broadcast to you. You are in one big invisible prison.

Game of Thrones season 8 was a punishment from God
lmao
Only one that is true
Man God's not that mean.
Covid is punishment for Season 8
we get it you didn't like that season please stop whining about it
That moment where Alt Shift X shows a map and it's Earth rather than Westeros...
I know, it’s like who are you and what’ve you done with Alt Shift X?
I just hope we get a good theme song when our map shows up on tv.

Yeah this season is mad
William Rice idk where the writers get their ideas
The amount of plot twists and unbelievable developments is insane
A lot of dropped plot threads, thought. What happened to those murder hornets?
Sure hope it doesnt end this season
The world has gotten so crazy Alt Shift X is like whelp no more need for fantasy
2020 is worth a seasons worth of episodes alone, if not multiple seasons.
No it isnt.
Bru have you even watched the video? It’s about how the world always has been like this, just now we have non-religious views about them
@@sturdyblastoff9300 just making jokes my man
Exactly, you don’t even need fantasy when you have the reality that’s less realistic than a movie plot
I shared this video with my sociology professor back in August when this came out... he just reached back out to me and said that he was going to use it in his upcoming "Sociology of Religion" class. So congrats on being college level quality!!
He rarely swears, but when he does, it always brings joy to me
Watch the livestreams!
It's funny you say that, because I understand exactly what you mean. His swear words are used very effectively for emphasis and poignancy but aren't overused or out of place.
I love this, the Alt Shift X format is simply so fitting - this is just real life lore.
Danm, reality's lore is almost as interesting as asoiaf's lore!
It's much more interesting bruh
“Reality’s lore“ - thats history bro
Religion in asoiaf is so much more tame
You should look into the lore of the Elder Scrolls series. It is like asoif lore on crack
More like this video? Yes please! Very well done, and a great way to diversify your content!
"Oh the gods won't mind, they spill more blood then all of us combined"
Dale Tryhorn his quoting Jaime Lannister from game of thrones and if the gods/god are real then they have definitely killed more living than Stalin
This sounds like it's from Game of Thrones book. Maybe it's your voice and format but it really suits for real world events. You got amazing narration style.
I love the sound of this video. It's like he's talking about a fantasy land. He sounds so incredulous talking about these stories.
It was originally titled 2012, but it took him 8 more years to finish.
He does have experience talking about fantasy lands
You did an incredible job with this video. I would gladly support you making more content like this.
Followed you cuz of GoT, but your content is still very solid and engaging otherwise. Keep doing this man

Real life lore analysed like this is even better. Keep em coming
awesome work. I'm not a religious person but i grew up in one and this one is extremely well researched and it's really well appreciated that this stuff are being talked about now.
Really enjoying this pivot, no matter how brief it ends up being.
I'm hoping this is where Alt Shift X's content is heading. There are only so many theories you can make about one series of books, and I personally loved this video. I could watch him make videos on anything
Totally agree. Very well done video. Nice presentation. Made me realize it doesnt matter what topic Alt Shift X videos have, if it's something philosophical, historical, fictional or psychological Im definitely interested.
The Year 2020 has better plot lines and intrigue than GOT season 8

Though 2020 left the whole murder hornet plot line hanging.
That's not saying much, tbh...

Great video man, glad to see you branch out. I'll keep supporting your content!
Is this Alt Shift CGP?
Loving it btw
Or Real Life Lore :P
That whole community rules tbh
WARNING I am the unprettiest human alive and I need YT to afford my house and the desires of my two girlfriends so please observe my highly stimulating videos, dear geo
Wtf is CGP?
@@jonsnowight9510 Probably named after CGP Grey, who is a pretty well known edutainer on YT who makes general education videos on general and miscellaneous subjects done with fun animations. He got his name from the CGP series of textbook from the UK, which depicts information in bitesize textboxes and fun cartoony drawings and diagrams.
Wow, this is amazing.
The reason I love History (and politics to an extent) so much is because it's like epic fantasy stories... except it actually happened.
So you covering actual history in the same format you cover fantasy makes sense and works really well, keep it up!
Thanks!
Thats the reason most people dislike it, if half the stuff in epic fantasy stories actually happened it would be horrible.
@@GhostEmblemToo true.
@@GhostEmblem Sadly, people throughout history have done worse things than most epic fantasy writers can come up with. That's why, for me, reading history highlights the awesome (not in the American sense, but more the awe inspiring sense) things humans are capable of and the most horrible things.
What an amazing video. It’s easy to see how much effort, thought and research you've put into it. I feel bad watching this for free but unfortunately I don’t have the means to support the content right now. I hope one day I can because this type work definitely needs to be shown to everybody. Content not based on fake news, conspiracy theories or something that your grandmother told you, but based on facts, research and analysis.
Wonderful video. More like this for sure.
''When Robert's Rebellion was raging, people that the end was near. The end of the Targaryen dynasty. "How will we survive?" When Aegon Targaryen turned his eye westward and flew his dragons to Blackwater Rush--"The end is near! How will we survive?" And thousands of year before that, during the Long Night, we can forgive them for thinking it truly was the end. But it wasn't. None of it was. The Wall has stood through it all. And every winter that ever came has ended. ''
Konkopt GRRM will never finish this, and we have an ending already...it’s weird he let it happen. But you know money...dear authors : don’t do this if you want to maintain any sense of integrity or fan loyalty, unless you don’t give a shit and just want a pile of money to sleep on.

i mean, that sounds like repentance to me. realize you're doing something wrong and you need to change?
a lot of the details of religions are out of date or even entirely extraneous but the broad strokes shouldn't be dismissed too quickly in my opinion
It's so refreshing to hear a reasonable voice in times like these. Thx!
11:00 i always find it wild how the "made in a chinese lab" theory went from complete crackpot to mainstream news/the prevailing western thought behind the origin (regardless of it's accuracy) in a year flat
Why would it be wild? Biological warfare is real, the Chinese government is far less ethical than many other governments on our planet, so why wouldn't the Chinese government try to create a virus like COVID to use as a weapon? Sprinkle in a little of bit of human error and you have the last couple of years.
@@Nekranon i mean sure maybe, but i was more referring to the 180 flip by mainstream discourse on the subject. just funny how fickle
@@ysbhw not saying I think it’s the case but it’s very strange indeed
@@Nekranon there's honestly so many reasons why this can be debunked, for a start the fact that epidemiologists & pharmacologists across the globe have confirmed that the virus performs badly in laboratory conditions and basically that I if you wanted to mass produce a bio weapon, it makes little sense to use a coronavirus strain in the first place
@@Nekranon Because warfare is logical and targeted, and the covid spread was not. Because it has hurt the chinese economy as well as any other. Because studies on the virus' genome showed very little difference from "natural" viruses. Because tailoring a virus is really fucking hard.
17:47 "If you want more video like this, please let us know in the comments"
Yes, I want more videos like this. Now that I let you know, I expect to get it. =D
Best channel on CZcams.❤️
same i hope theres more
definitely more like this! it's always unexpected and surprising to be reminded how lore and fiction both derive from and influence everyday lived realities - often in unexpected and surprising ways.
that said, it may be best to somehow indicate that this video isn't specifically about GoT... i really thought this was about old gods vs new gods or something like that.

Perfection! Great that you are now delving into real world issues with your unparalleled story telling style. Thank you sir!

Your voice and explanation is great for this. Keep it up :D
The work alt shift x does is truly amazing. I really enjoyed it and when I saw the title I didn't think I would !
You have so much more to offer us beyond literature interpretation and popular culture meta knowledge. You're one of the content richest youtubers I've ever found. Whatever you post is gold, ASX! Thank you for this video.
This was much appreciated. It's getting... weird... out there and having a discussion like this with strangers, or even friends, isn't really possible. It's nice to see a group like Alt+Shift+X add to the dialogue in their own way.
LOVE THIS NEW DIRECTION FOR THE CHANNEL, would love to see even more world event / history coverage
hell yeah
Didn't expect a non-fiction vid from Alt Shift X but this is really good
I found it a great and informative video. I would love watching more of this. Keep up the good work!

I love the new direction for your content. I never realized how interesting historical info could be with your presentation. cheers!
Enjoyed this vid a lot, your voice instantly hooks me. You were very responsibly honest too, especially about subjects some people are defensive about
Hey, I never comment ever, almost, but this was really cool, I thoroughly enjoyed it and would love more videos on real world topics or issues.

Hopefully the last season of this story isnt as bad as GoT
"i have achieved comedy"
well.. everyone got their happy endings and only the extras (and some badies) died, thats (partly) what made those last seasons so bad in a GoT sense.. hopefully the last season will be exactly like GoT.. making no sense at all but everyone being alive and happy

This is a brilliant video! Thank you Alt Shift X!
This is serious super high quality content. I really like the direction your taking!
The movie "Shin Godzilla" is a SUPER compelling story illustrating the insight that people working efficiently together, not glamorous "lone heroes," solve disasters.
Godzilla is also a metaphor for nuclear power which is why the early Godzilla movies he is the bad guy, because of the Hiroshima bomb, but in the later movies he is the good guy, because Japan now relies on nuclear power for a huge percent of it's energy.

I want to point out that a big part of ancient Chinese mythology was also a Great Flood, but the cause usually was not said to be supernatural. And the mythical Emperor Yu built dams to stop the floods, founding the Xia dynasty. This mythos is seen as a testament to civilization conquering and regulating nature.
This is a very pleasant surprise. It's great to see you branching out.

This is the pivot I knew was always around the corner and the one I've patiently been waiting for - taking parallels within real world lore and dissecting over tropes and ideas presented over history, can't wait to see what topics you tackle next
This is incredibly researched. As a theology student - I definitely want to see more of this!
I’m sorry you wasted your education analyzing fairy tales for deeper meaning...not that sorry you know what you did wrong from all this stories you read hopefully

"Everything that has a beginning has an end" The Oracle said. And one day, maybe not in our lifetime or our children's or our grandchildren's lifetime, the world or at least society as we know it will end. Something new will arise from that, but not knowing what happens next is an unconfortable feeling for people to have.
I would wager that civilisation as we know it will end in the next 30-40 years. Global warming predictions are pretty straight forward.
You have given a great amount of respect to religion, philosophy, and humanity in this incredibly intelligent video and, for that, I thank you Alt Shift.
Absolutely loved the video and the new direction tackling real life events
