>>2274179

Lindy is based desu

>>2274179
Why is he not married?

>>2274283
The same reason the average 4chan goer isn't married.

>>2274283
He's gay. I heard he is into fisting dues and golden showers. Bonus points for boys who show up in British WW1 garb.

>>2274283
He is quite misogynistic (not full on MRA-tier), and I say this as someone who shitposts about feminism every chance I can. He simply can't disguise his power level

why does Lindy trigger /his/ so much?
>he's a layman shouting his unfounded opinions online
oh, so... just like the average /his/ poster then?

>>2275042

He reminds is of ourselves. And we hate ourselves.

>>2275042
>layman
He has a degree in archaeology.

>>2274297
I honestly do think he is gay.

>>2275052
Indeed

>>2274283
>""A woman's place is in the home." This is a very old saying, and has today I think come to mean something very specific. When people use this expression today, it is usually in ridicule of someone else, and suggesting that they have very old-fashioned and reprehensible beliefs. [...] However, I may surprise you by stating that I am more in agreement with the statement than against it."
This is why.

>>2275145
>because he's based
this is why women's liberation needs to be ended.

>>2274283
He hates the French while women love them

>>2274297
Nah he's not gay. He (awkwardly) flirts with some cosplaying girls in his comic con vid.

He's just an autist.

>>2274283
I'm under impression that he has so many autistic hobbies and interests and projects that would never go anywhere that he doesn't have any time or desire for family left.

This. Isn't one of his tank videos based on a girl pretending to be interested in tanks in order to talk to him, and he just spergs out about fake geek girls?

>>2275450
Haven't seen that because it's not really my type of history, but it sounds funny as fuck.

Not a lindyfag, but his points on castles and their garrisons were actually quite good. You're taking what he said here out of context.

>>2275490

Because obviously he hasn't said enough stupid shit himself, so we need to deliberately misquote him too...

>>2275490
>>stagnant social mobility isn't real
It's actually funnier than that; he claimed the the UK is a near-perfect meritocracy and everyone is where they belong.

>>2275490
>>no one used swords, axes
Literally never said that. Has stated the very opposite numerous times.
>>no one used horses
Again, never once said that. He made a video about how peculiar an idea cavalry is, especially to people familiar with horses only as beasts of burden.
>>no one used throwing knives
Acknowledged the historical uses of them in his video, but stated that for military use they're simply not as good an idea to have as javelins, slings, or archers.
>>no one used double strap arm shields
His own Hoplite shield is strapped to the arm. His videos on shields were about how, most of the time, a center-grip shield was more effective given the reach and mobility. He's far from the only youtuber to say this.
>>no one used scythes
Said scythes, as in the L-shaped farming equipment, weren't used in battle save for very desperate times by peasants, and that they are unsuitable for combat roles. Addressed warscythes in a second video, and stated that they were converted to spears/glaives or were never a scythe to begin with and bore the word only in name.
>>no one used mail coifs
Holy shit does anyone even watch his videos? He said that they weren't worn in the way we typically see them, because the chin is exposed and they don't have (enough) padding, which wouldn't have been the case.
>>no one used torches
In his videos on torches he lists numerous uses for torches, but again it focuses mostly on how people today view them through media.
>>Pikemen didn't fight each other
His commentary was that the fighting was done in melee, rather than with the pikes themselves.
>>no one spoke French during the French revolution
He said France did not speak a single "French" language as we think of it today. There were (and are) many regional dialects that are often considered separate languages.
>>no one spoke Latin during the Roman Republic
See above about dialects, but also he says that the Elite spoke Greek among themselves.

>>2275836
>>battle of Zama didn't happen
He casts doubt on whether or not it happened as is described by later Roman historians, suggesting it may have been a series of battles that ultimately lead to the defeat of Carthage.
>>Romans carried one pilum
Hardly remember this video because I didn't find it to be a particularly interesting subject but from what I remember he just went on about how it was to fuck up enemy shields and they fought primarily with their swords.
>>Vikings weren't real
Said that "Viking" wasn't a culture or job description because the culture was Norse/Scandinavian, and raiding was usually an occasional thing that only a few would participate in, and that it wasn't exclusively their role in society.
>>berserkers weren't real
He said berserkers as we think of them today (Khorne Berserkers, for example) didn't exist, but that they were personal champions for a thane or jarl who was denoted by a bear skin.
>>climate change isn't real
Ancient videos that are fairly damning, but he's been BTFO in the comments for the past 8 years, so who knows where he stands now.
>>stagnant social mobility isn't real
Is this about the video where he talks about the two conflicting notions people have about social mobility? Those being "Some people are born to be successful" and "Anyone can potentially achieve anything".
>>castles were defended by three soldiers
Literally when did he say that.
>>operation market garden was a success
I don't recall him saying anything of the sort, so please, do give me a source.
>>Napoleon was literally Hitler
He's only the, what, millionth person to draw comparisons between them because they both made efforts to conquer Europe and both had their turning point in Russia?
>>The Churchill was the best tank in WWII
He's a big fan of them, but I don't recall him explicitly stating that they are hands-down the absolute best of the war.
>>The English won the Hundreds Years' War
He never said that

>His commentary was that the fighting was done in melee, rather than with the pikes themselves.
the idea that the pikemen would drop pikes and run at each other with knives because it was too lethal for both sides is absurd
by the same logic, WWI infantry would refuse to use machineguns if they faced machineguns
but I think it would make sense to generally not use pikes against pikes (I suppose unless you outnumbered them)

>I don't recall him saying anything of the sort, so please, do give me a source.
it was in comments under the infamous Spandau video I think
something along "Monty said it was 90% success"

>The English won the Hundreds Years' War
>He never said that
also in comments
something like "we invaded, killed bunch of Frenchies and went home"

>Churchill
>He's a big fan of them, but I don't recall him explicitly stating that they are hands-down the absolute best of the war.
I think he said something like it is most underrated/overlooked

>>2275490
I'm surprised you didn't mentioned that he claimed the naval guns on Malta could lanuch projectiles into space

I do enjoy his frequent ribbing on the french

it feels right

I've been watching these threads for a long time and the same stuff cone up over and over. So I have a question

Why isn't he allowed to be wrong?

Other people are wrong all the time. Everyone here would suck Toby Capwell's cocktail at the first opportunity, but he openly admit's that there's things wrong with with stuff he's published previously. Even during his book launch disguised as an Agincourt conference, he said stuff in the book is wrong.

So why expect more from Lindy?

Why do people insist on him being 100% right or he becomes a laughing stock?

Is it just a personality thing with Lindy have more of himself on show so there's more flaws to hate on? Or is everyone just autistic and getting triggered because a 5 minute YouTube video was slightly wrong about a minor poi the?

>>2278032

>cocktail

Interesting choice autocorrect but I'll go with it .

>>2277974
Holy kek
Why can't he accept that Britain isn't always the greatest?

>>2278051

I think/hope most of his more obnoxious British Nationalism is him playing uo to his Lindybeige persona.

>>2278032
He has a very British accent and he looks like an eccentric professor, so people assume that whatever he says he thinks is an undeniable fact.

>Not having an autistic gf
My gf and I create fetish pornography on deviantart together. We have a list of at least 2 dozen OCs we've created together. Despite this, we never actually have sex because it's less sexually fullfilling than 2d. We also have an incredibly strong relationship because we hate talking to other people, and work at home as a result.

This is marital bliss.

>>2280043
>this is martial bliss

No, that's severe autism.


I wish I had someone like that;_;
