Shad looks and acts like a Redditor's fedora who got a wish to turn into a real boy

"When I'm sad, I cheer myself up by remembering that I'm stronger than 100% of toddlers."

Once not long ago I was a fan of Shad At the time I thought he was a Chad Now my eyes reveal to me he's just plain sad

When he says "I'm stronger than most women" what he means is "I can assault and beat up most women" because he obviously isn't mentally or emotionally stronger than most women. Or teen girls for that matter.

He’s un ironically just “wHiLe yOu wEre hAviNg sEx I StuDiEd tHe BlaDe”

If you ever feel like you have no shot at a love life, remember that shad is an incel with five children.

I remember when this guy would just talk about cool castles. So sad to see he's gone full incel now.

His mistake is that you can’t make a “logical argument” about the value of a person. Their value to you and to others is purely in their relationship to you and others. Nothing to do with “logical arguments”.

Remember, Shad's little brother is Jazza here on YT, who is a legit artist, and a very attractive man, and the constant comparison obviously GALLS him to no end. EDIT: 26:20 There it is, he's just venting b/c he's Jealous of his talented, hot little brother whose channel is doing WAY better at this point... (and I'll bet the divorce involves his wife telling him what he feared to hear: Jazza's better than him and she probably wanted to be with him instead: it's Insecurity)

I started watching Shads stuff when I thought he was just nerd like myself with a thin for swords and armor. But then he added the casual bigotry to legit everything. Really ruined it for me

I like how he says woman were valued for beauty and fertility, as if that's a great thing. What about older women? And women who were infertile?

The virgin shadiversity vs the chad skallagrim.

The whole "are you a good person" thing is something he pulled on Jack Saint. Shad did a response video and actually posed that question to Jack, which seems highly hypocritical given many of the things Shad has gone on record about when it comes to people who have different thoughts and opinions to himself on a variety of topics. Everyone from other sword youtubers, including actual fencers, archery youtubers, including actual instructors, metalwork, including actual blacksmiths... He's called any of them who disagreed with his views all sorts of things, which kind of implies Shad is not "a good person".

I lost all respect for this clown when I found out he's a transphobe, but THEN I discovered his tweets about his AI "art" which are the peak of unintentional comedy. Absolute lolcow, this one.

leave it to conservatives to reinforce misogynistic stereotypes and then whinge about how hard it is to live up to misogynistic stereotypes. you can just-not. do that. stop it.

as someone that thought they would like Shad but immediately got turned off by his rambling 45 minute videos about his issues with teh katana etc. i am 10000% here for the fall of shad

Shad will on the one hand say he loves traditional family & gender roles & that men should be protectors & providers but then on the other hand complain when people point out women have been more oppressed than men throughout history by saying "men have been oppressed as well, it's men who had to sacrifice themselves by not getting on lifeboats when the Titanic sank, it's men who fight & die in wars." Like the blatant contradiction & hypocrisy is astounding.

The mind set Shad is talking about is Patriarchy. That's why I keep saying if he'd do some damn research outside the far right echo chambers he hangs out in, he'd become a much better person

Y does shad care so much that "men are stronger than women" sounds grapey

For science I've opened a random Shadiversity video from over a year ago and he wasn't wearing a ring back then either. I think wedding bands are just not a huge thing in mormonism, like I know they don't exchange rings during the ceremony. Maybe in Shad's circles men don't always wear them because rings are not manly enough or whatever. Also no divorce in mormonism anyway so she'd have to risk apostasy if things got that serious. I know it's fun to imagine some grand comeuppance for a bad guy like Shad, but likely he is just grifting his maidenless and frustrated audience.

his wife 100% left him and he realized very quickly that 16 year olds dont like some 30 year old larpy loser hitting on them that is my bet after seeing this and hearing the bs he says cause its "got divorced and now seek replacement sex object" energy written all over it and he seems fixated on "youth and beauty" like all creeps that creep teenagers when they are in their 30s

He's just so mad his fantasies aren't how the world actually works. Bless.

The statement he begins making at 4:05 is the biggest self report I've seen in a while💀

Shadiversity needs his Fedora back.

13:53 Race? I thought this was about men and women. Is there *more* you’d like to talk about, Shad?

Why does he have "diversity" in his name? That's woke. 🧐

Briefly I was convinced Shadman and Shadiversity were somehow the same guy. _This attitude_ doesn't help.

TREATing young men like they have no value. maybe like if a young amab kid doesnt want to do those "manly" things shad described, what if they arent good at those things. but they are good at all the things shad has described for the ladies. that person is shown no value by people like shad that are so simple minded that they think everyone does exactly the same thing

He made the arguments he has with the shampoo bottles in the shower into a KZfaq video.

In the Historical Martial Arts community, Shad is considered a poser. Any decent community member considers him a sad bigot.

@ the fight to the death thing, this one guy i see on yt shorts who's a pole dancer and an archer would definitely wreck shad

Get your sword content from the based and woke Skallagrim. Scola gladiatoria is cool too. Both have called Shad out and have had to suffer his fan base.

The attractiveness debate/issue for folks like this is so hilarious to me. Most of what I see of the left is a large group of people BROADENING their opinions of what's attractive and sexy and hot and beautiful, not to mention BROADENING their own feelings on what they're personally attracted to to the point where lots of people are bisexual, pansexual and attracted to MORE than just "one gender" of people. Fostering passion and attraction and orgies and whatever else people want to do, and even people who are aromantic and asexual, hey, there's room for you too to have parties where no one is in love or does sexy times or anything. Extremely accepting and welcoming regardless of what you look like and what your exact gender or sexual orientation is... Vs the right...who feel things like "beauty" are these rigid genetic lotteries where people either hit jackpot or not, and those that don't, welp, commit unalive because you don't deserve anything, oops, unless you're a horrible male in which case, ONLY the ugly women are worth nothing, and young men apparently need to be propped up and encouraged because poor them. Lol. Also, any and all sexual tidbits need to be kept locked behind closed doors, and should any of those things be revealed then the propaganda machine needs to be kicked on because everyone needs to be pious and chaste and holy, despite the unbearably conflicting bullshit about men needing to be ravenous neanderthal animals that rigorously spread their seeds to any and all beautiful buxom FERTILE females, regardless of age, and yet also need to be considered "not man whores." This literally makes the left the honest side. And the right the emotionally, sexually, and intellectually repressed, not to mention viciously dishonest side.

do y’all think he got into it with his brother? cause Jazza do be mad cute, he seems real butthurt that some guys are cute and he looks like a 4th graders attempt at drawing theodore chipmunk

When I saw this video pop up my first thought was this was something to do with Shad's latest twitter meltdown at Skallagrim. No, not the one from a few months ago, the one in the last 24 hours. Skall liked a hand drawn image by an artist of a comical character throwing their pommel at a comical rendering of Shad, and because Skall liked it, Shad is having a hissy fit about how he's a victim of people wanting him physically assaulted. So you know, Shad's usual BS when someone makes fun of him when he's been his usual obnoxious self.

Call me overly charitable, but sometimes I see some kinds of internet discourse as people simply misunderstanding a common problem everybody faces in capitalism as gender specific. Usually people end up blaming the other gender for these issues, but the issues themselves are not fabricated, like, men do face gross standards based on what they can provide. Is it a sign that women have value and men don't? No, it's just capitalism and patriarchy.

Shad loves to make up scary shadows snd fight them bc they can't argue back

I think I'm starting to understand why the crusades always ended up failing...

Yeaaah... the "men are born with nothing, women are born with everything," isn't some sort of common saying... it's just a popular saying on incel forums.

Shad is saying Pretty Privilege doesn't exist (it does), and is also complaining about people having it? like, does not exist or does it chaff that it does?

He use to be so cool when he gave people writing tips and critiqued historical accuracy in media. What the hell happened to him?

It just clicked for me Shad is very hung up on physical superiority for a man with chronic fatigue. Not to make fun of a dude for health issues, but considering his defensive stance on his status as an artist, I’ll bet he’s also quite protective of his own physicality and feels emasculated for lacking stamina.

Wouldn't surprise me if Shad only watched people like Andrew Taint

As an actual man i resent people like shad talking about masculinity telling others to be a man in spite of him not being one.

"can we get him in some sort of competition where he has to swordfight someone else" Lmao its very funny, because he will not got to any fencing competitions in Australia despite being INVITED to. I have accounts of folk that is impossible to properly coach and deceptively edits his videos to make him look better than he is, from reputable Australian HEMArists and fencers.

I liked his sword stuff, but he’s literally unwatchable after seeing his trash reactionary childish positions

In this video Shadiversity talks about the shadversity faced by men who don't wash their balls...

"Women had a lot of power in society but the feminists will never talk about it. Think of all the women married to powerful men who had the profoundly important ability to choose what's for dinner..." See, if that was a joke, it'd be misogynistic depending on how it's told I suppose (like if it was mocking the power imbalance, but most likely comes off as a 'lol women in the kitchen' joke), but it'd be a joke. Instead this dude literally said "women had the power to fire the help staff and pick what they ate for dinner" as some indication women have had some higher power over men throughout history...

not gonna lie, I didn't know what the opposite of asmr is until Jake suggested talking through a ball shaving tutorial

Wait, are the rest of you ladies not walking around trying to attract suitors?

Love the BS in the chat by opposingpitbullworship. What a load an ignorant racist dribble. Australians are a diverse population in which English ancestry is often overstated, Australia’s convict ancestry is actually small, Scottish and Irish influence is larger than English and can be seen in Australian English with some words and pronunciation. Shad is not representative of Australia, he is a Mormon (0.5%) of the population, lives in a rural area of Victoria in a place known for high usage of meth, has no university education (which is the minority of his generation). Let’s not suggest Shad is representative of Australians.

As a Christian I would like to say, I do not associate this man

Not to defend SV but the ideology he is arguing against is Andrew Tate manosphere bs.

I used to watch Shad for interesting videos on castles amd medieval weapons. It was weird watching him slide away and get weirder and weirder. Haven't heard about him in ages, until he popped back up going on an anti trans rant.

We do, though in Australia we call them 'One Nation' voters.

Oh man, I used to watch this bloke's videos all the time. Had no idea he actually espoused medieval attitudes in his life and relationships.

you heard it here. no country can protect a pregnant woman like her husband can. its a lil known fact that a dad to be can summon the power of Black Bolt if their to be family is threatened

Watching this grown man tiptoe around the word sex while at the same time referring to young girls as fertile… Fundamentalists’ backwards ideas of what is or isn’t appropriate never cease to shock and appall me.

Shad talks about sex as if it's a complicated science project, and rape like it's a causal plot device

"the value of men is that men don't get pregnant", shad 21:40 dear god, he considers himself an author but he expresses himself horribly. He could script these videos.

For everyone who wanted to like Shad's content, Matt Easton of Scholagladiatora is a relatively based dude and broke relations with Shad after learning of Shad's knightswatch content and views.

The bearded man who loves swords is literally out here soapboxing about Chads, Stacys, and the belief that men's value is that they can and should protect women and protect and defend society. Doesn't matter how lanky or thicc you are, you are "inherently" made for defense. It's like he's gone out and read in-cel forums and took it all completely seriously. Shad also makes fun of mall ninjas, despite wearing faux armor on his channel constantly. So he's like worked himself into the middle of the venn-diagram between in-cels, neckbeards, nice-guys, and alpha-males. Holy. . . crap.

I liked when Shad only talked about Hema and the medieval period. Then he created his Knights Watch channel that bled into his main one, started preaching Mormonism and ranting against anyone who disagrees, especially the LGBTQIA+ community and anyone politically liberal. At least thats what he was doing the last time I watched him, and yea he was married with kids then too, if I am remembering correctly. I stopped following the bigot a few years back cause I can't stand the opinion that people are lesser and deserve to be devalued cause they are different, be that due to gender, sexuality, ethnicity, nationality, race, etc, which is an idea the dude fully embraces.

I followed this dude...then I started seeing signs of right wingery. Yeah, he's pulled a FN PRONOUNS.

The ideology he's talking about at the start comes from the traditional patriarchal perspective. So, it's referring to "value" in a warped sort of way. Not value as a person, but value as an object, as a commodity, and so on. They see women having inherent "value" as desirable objects, and men having to earn their "value" through productivity, etc. In other words, women are seen as assets to be protected, and the average man is seen as worthless beyond what he can provide. The men (and these days, women as well) in power except themselves from these "standards" by presenting themselves as the most "valuable" people in society, of course. They also present their positions as something that can possibly be obtained by the average man (or woman, these days). You know, this is all sounding a lot like a certain economic ideology, now that I type it all out...

11:10 please don't encourage him to talk about swords, he knows almost nothing about them and it offends those of us that've made serious studies of it... 😢

Shad harassed his wife about having children until she left him for an attractive man. Now he's bitter.

All that Chainmail armor can’t protect his feelings 😂

23:30 If we can get Shad to my local area, I'd be HAPPY to oblige, I'll even be sporting, since I'm a woman, and let him chose his weapon and armor, while I'll just use a knife... it's fine, we'll use blunt/wooden ones... but that also means we can go full power too...

Really Shad, how many fights have you had to be in to defend your wife?

I am very angry at the people making this argument I just invented. Grrrr, me!

Such divorced energy, Shad doesn't understand it isn't some inherent quality that makes him unlikable, he just doesn't pass the vibe check.

Currently in my masters (biology) and am actually doing sexual selection and it’s just hilarious how the manosphere misconstrue the topic.

Considering he voted 'No' on the voice referendum, it seems clear to me that he doesn't think Aboriginal men have any value.

nobody who like and know swords actually watch Shad. he doesnt know anything and can not actually use swords. There are many real sword channel. Shad is not one he is fake lols

Disappointing to see him fall off. I guess he was always this person but there was a time when he stayed much more hyper focused on geeking out about weapons, armor, and castles n shit, which was interesting if you like that sort of thing. This is just pathetic and weird.

Its such a bummer to find Shad has such dumb opinions.

Lol because evey woman is attractive right?😂😂😂 I work for what i have incel. I earned it by working I think he's complaining about the fact that women have the capability of rejecting men

Shadiversity and people like him are the kind of people who cannot let go of the Gender is an absolute and defines your role ideology, mainly because they benefited from this ideology for so long, and now that the country is starting to move away from that, they find themselves without any legs to stand on, and so they lash out in the attempt to drag everything back to a time when things made sense to them, not realizing that they are in fact doing insane amounts of harm in the process. Also given that Titanic reference I bet you five coupons Shad hated the portrayal of Caledon Hockley in the movie Titanic as he tried to bribe his way onto a life raft before sneaking on one like a coward. 20:43 So does Shad just not accept artificial insemination as a concept, or does he believe that by donating of the semen that a man is fully involved in that process, despite the fact that it may be a same sex couple who has opted for one or both partners to get pregnant, a heterosexual couple had to get a donner because the male in the relationship was infertile, or a woman who lives on her own decided she wanted a baby without involving a sexual partner in any way. 21:06 "If he has any virtue or honor he is going to be supporting the results of his action which is fathering a child." ......He's one of those assholes who believes that if you father a child you should be required by law to care for them isn't he, and I'll bet he is also one of those assholes who believes that if a child is fathered through artificial insemination that the person who donated the sperm should have full legal rights to the resulting child. 21:15 "The woman should be his wife..." ......And he just identified himself as one of those disgusting individuals who believes that getting a woman pregnant automatically makes them property of the one who got them pregnant....god this man is disgusting. As a weird aside, I love how he keeps talking about how pregnancy's is debilitating, and how some women can handle it better then others but then turns around and says they always need help with pregnancy, yet I have heard countless stories about single women who got pregnant by their own choice and were able to function throughout their entire pregnancy without help, save for when they asked for it, yet the way he paints it, pregnancy is so debilitating that only a man (who should be their husband) can help them through it. 27:58 ......Why do these people still exist, why in 2023 are there still people who think that women's only end goals in life should he getting themselves married and starting a family, not all women want that! 35:55 .......The idea that you can't build yourself into someone better because you don't have inherit value is a disgusting concept that is thankfully dying out, you do not need inherit value to make yourself better, you can make yourself better regardless of who or what you are or how you view yourself. It's scumbags like Shad here who place value on who and what you are and how you view yourself, and at the end of the day what they think does not matter, the only person who can gage your own value is you. Thank Buddha I watched this video with a buffer, because watching the original video by itself would have been painful.

HE says good person just like ray comfort

As a man that has hair on his shaft...I feel highly judged by this video. Yes I do shave my shaft.

Is it just me or is the whole thing about “women throw themselves at attractive men” that these incel adjacent guys always talk about, first of all kinda just a weird thing to say, but also not really true at all? I’m not saying that there definitely aren’t men that are so attractive that women actually “throw themselves at them” but these guys act like it’s super common and all women are like that? Idk I think it’s weird, maybe it’s because I’ve had a few girlfriends and know that generally women are just normal people and normal people don’t throw themselves at people they find attractive. It’s also such a weird thing to be upset about? I’m decently attractive, I’ve never really had issues getting dates, but I’m not upset when a girl doesn’t like the way I look, I’m not entitled to women and people have different tastes idk it just puts me off how entitled some of these guys are.

obviously shad knows about all the male midwives., no women ever helped a pregnant lady....................................

I for one am *shocked* a sword guy turned into a Christian incel

I would actually watch a video showing which if any kind of medieval armor can survive a guillotine

funny how this guy spends ten minutes telling us not to treat women as a monolith and then breaks into THE PLIGHT FOR MEN IS BAD. buddy, I think you dropped your nuance back in the ladies' section

I recommend Jack Saint's video essay "Knightfall" for a Shadiversity deep dive.

"We are being held hostage and it's a good thing. If you don't constantly tell young men that their masculinity carries inherent value then *woof* I don't wanna tell you what could happen but it's bad so just tell the boys that being a man is cool, okay!"

Desperate AI "artist" believes women have it easy, what's new?

I think I commented on this video as a reply to another comment on my views and it started a debate.

It's under ideology. Like pick up artist incels shit. No one else thinks about shit like this except incels

This is peak Divorced Dad Energy

So what i take from Shad is, "be not afraid of the sexy pretty boy or the sexy chiseled muscles his friend has!"

Shad seems to be trying to position himself as dad of the incels

Why does Shad have Hassan Piker's face on his desk?

"He should stick to talking about swords." No. Because of his socia-political arguments I've lost trust in his opinion on swords.

6:06 Shad is Mormon, and was issued his wife-mate by the church accordingly.

omg i was SUCH a shad fan but his rant just makes me sad edit: you've just gained a loyal follower

shad sounds like a conservative desperately arguing against the results of his own ideology

if your gonna do a ball shaving tutorial i expect props
