Talk:Sir Isaac Newton vs Bill Nye/@comment-25008580-20140617143729

This comment is directed towards anyone in this "community", whether they be focused around the YouTube comments or the "UNSUBSCRIBING BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHO BILL NYE IS" idiots.

As a college student trying to recieve a masters degree in history, can I just say that just because ERB is located and filmed in America, the point of history is to learn and understand people and society as a whole. When an ERB comes out, it's pretty obvious someone somewhere wouldn't have to slightest idea on what a specific character stood for in Americana history, let's just use Bill Nye for example. However, if you really were interested in history, or at least gave a fucking shit about ERB itself, then you'd be happy that two historical characters, albiet from a society you know jack shit about, were being used. And perhaps, if they were to stay interested and not remain arrogant jackasses, they might learn something. So, the idiots of YouTube are not fans of either history itself or ERB as a whole. To summarize, the point of history is to learn and understand all people throughout all history. Some characters in this dramatic play we call life are only known on a few stages across the world. And because ERB did research on them to bring them to the attention of other stages is them trying to not only broaden their own horizons, but the horizons of the characters they portray as well. So, to that idiot on YouTube who said "stop using celebrities that are only known in America", I have nine words for him/her/it.

Go fuck yourself, maybe you'll learn something through that.
