🎼Guy love, that's all it is

Blackbeard: Yeah I have 😍😊😚

that would be rackham, the fuchboy pirate, I imagine him as a boastfull loudmouth looking the part of the dashing rogue but really just a player without any backbone

me too lmao

SO MANY THINGS in the show are true! It's wild.

There's a certain percent of loot that goes to the crew for every raid. I've loved pirates for years and I'm so happy to see them getting popular because of OFMD :)

A lot of the jokes are based on history. That’s the real magic of the show

People actually made it more than 5 min into that show?

Present

I need the angst to be resolveeeed :((((

You caught me

Guilty

hiya

Cool story Hansel!

A man of culture

Int it

A not so noble Stede.

Steeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeede

yeah

8:04 they sure did

Lmaooooo

😳

☠️

You mean david jenkins?

That's literally how everyone approaches everything these days lol

Sorry, he wasn’t a queer, he was married with 4 children and decided she was crazy and couldn’t live with her anymore. He bought a ship”revenge “ and left her. Although they portrayed him as a fag in the series, he was not. I am his 8th generation granddaughter

@@jmreeves89 could be because the straights are boring lol

@@kileyrowe8091 purely political, they do it with everything because they want to act as if it's always been accepted but truth is that even the so called ok to be gay greeks by all sources considered man on man sexual relations to be debauchery, pederasty was common but both greeks and especially romans looked at it with argus eyes, in fact ceasar laughed away and even confirmed many alegations of him sleeping around (for roman elites this was considdered shamefull) but one thing he opposed hard is the accusation that he had engaged passive xxx (receiving) with a former mentor. greeks themselves depicted sexual acts like this on vases but those showed saters, pretty much the creatures known for being debaucherous fiends, meaning these were meant as insult not as much else (homosexuallity wasn't a concept prior to the modern age btw, hence why i have not used the term, they didn't classify people on sexuality, in the medieval period they spoke of sodomy but this also included anal xxx or oral xxx or any act of it that was considdered to not serve reproduction, and truth be told none of the above actively persecuted people for it, the romans did once hunt down an xxx cult over reports of doing it with children of both sexes but even so when people were procecuted over sexual acts it was usually in times of crisis that couldn't be explained easily and usually in wartorn or suffering regions persecution only started in ernest in the modern age, enlightenment, people who were not "normal" have to "cured" so they invented ways to try to do so, like electroshock therapy, here the term homosexuality emerges, now the sexuality becomes a group identity

That's so funny, oh my God you need to be a comedian no joke. I pay to watch you make some funny jokes.

This did not age well

the shortest one and a half hour i ever enjoyed

lol exactly. I was like, waaaait a minute.

And count dankula dont forget him

What’s with KZfaq and pirates this week

Nah Simon is better.

*raise my hand* The History lacks gayness though X)

interesting seeing the historical storyline behind it too! It seems like they start the show when stede's injured and blackbeard takes over the ship in his absence but ignore their previous history of working under his fleet. I wonder where season 2 will go!

I'm here as an Assassin's Creed fan...

@@friendbesto2599 Based Black Flag enjoyer

​@@friendbesto2599same, I was suprised that his portrayal is black flag is actually pretty accurate

You need to look up the Internet Historian's video on Stede. It's great.

And the show played heavily on actual events, like him pairing up with Blackbeard, and how Blackbeard never was attributed with killing anyone...he actually preferred to not kill anyone and use his prestige and myths surrounding him to scare his foes.

I think we all developed an instant addiction that we desperately want to satisfy while waiting for a second season.

1717 a leap year? ehhhhhhh whatever Pinocchio wasn't written until 19th century? who cares love this show so much tho fr lol

Roomates.

just guys bein dudes

Boys who like to play with their swords

They weren't even friends lol, Bonnet was basically a prisoner

@@MozartOfficial bro it was a joke 😭😭 have you heard of the show “our flag means death” ??

So, simon, simon and, simon?

@@AftermathRV are they all named Simon or what?

Nice to see a fellow fan of all three!

Do we all watch the same channels?

@@simplelife7522 probably

I was looking for this lol

@@---qg6nq historians vidoe is WAY better in my opinion

If only she had given him the maple syrup

I see you are a man of culture

The men rely on me to get.....there booty

Amen to that!

Except he died at age 30 so it wasn't really a mid life crises

​@@calpurniabruchi5742 given life expectancy back then, I think it was indeed a mid-life crisis

Life expectancy was low because of high infant mortality.

But how is it that Biographics has no "Pirates" playlist?

Well yeah, the thing is back then the conditions in which pirate endured we're literally hell like.

Shii I be a pirate too if it wasn't for the fact that I'd be gunned down the moment I try to steal a ship

Hi my homosexual friend. Do you think Black Beard and Bonnet had a relationship? I was shocked when I saw the kiss on the show, because I have been told that Blackbeard had a lot of wives. So maybe Blackbeard was bisexual and Bonnet was just gay?

@@Dave-te5bs I honestly don't think the show creators cared much for historical accuracy and so I guess I don't either! It is an interesting idea that they might have seen each other romantically but we'll never know so I'm not going to waste braincells over it ya know

hello

@@Dave-te5bs On the show it's pretty open-ended about his orientation. He definitely loves Stede and slept with Calico Jack, so there's that, but he also has that line about being "massaged to death by mermaids," so I think bi is a fair interpretation, if not set in stone. Stede is definitely meant to be gay, though. IRL though? There's literally no way to know, and in any case the number of alleged wives is so comically large that it could loop back around to "I have a girlfriend in Canada" territory.

@@Dave-te5bs On the show, yes they do. Real life, no. Blackbeard told Bonnet he wasn't suited to be a pirate and kept him as essentially a prisoner.

HELPP same

i like finding out about things like this about games. Assassins creed being the best.

I was like...Stede Bonnet, where have I heard that name before? Then it clicked.

It was very unfortunate, but have you seen my sugar?

in the game, the guards said he was hanged

For this channel, whenever they do a pirate video it does well. Therefore, by YT logic, if a video does well try and replicate that success. Although I’m sure other factors were involved. Notably a certain unorthodox historian.

@Ethan Schmidt Why would they copy this video? Also, the "Sundance Rejects" video is definely older than a day. Old enough to inspire the writer of this script.

The date of his execution is approaching.

@@NathanCassidy721 I think you underestimate how long it takes to write and record/edit these videos. Most likely just an astronomical coincidence.

@@teogonzalez7957 I've done editing and animation in the past for school work. I know how long it takes to make these kind of videos. But that does not mean they didn't get the idea from IH or Count Dankcula. What is the most time consuming is the fact they would have to do research and condense it into the 20 minute informative format that this channel is known for. While they would have gotten around to Stede eventually, he clearly got priority. Not hating, but to call this a "coincidence" is bollocks.

what was the documentary you watched called?

You almost got me there

Thank you, he was hung after being captured in cape fear s. Carolina.. he’s my grandfather generations back. My linage was well documented and I learned that he was grandpa in 1972, when my father ,son of descendant Edward bonnet’ , researched our family crest.

You say that again 😅

we are here

"He was respected and feared yet somehow he sailed with bonnet for a while", me: HES GAY!

Or he just wanted to be a pirate...

Definitely.

Yeah

👋🏼

So do i.

I’m not Obama but he did tell me to say that he approves as well

I love you A Turtle.

You again? You're either a bot (a nice one) or we share the same interests! 🐢

I heard that we're all just part of one of your dreams

Let me guess... Dunken Donu- I mean Whorlpool.

The money loving, rum drinking pirate assassin himself

Yeah this is real fucking weird I got it in the sale earlier and have been playing it all day and boom this drops xD

Was thinking the same. Sounds like the story ,somewhat ,of Blackflag. Assassins Creed.

Stede was always so cheerful in that game. It was so sad when he got executed at the end.

@@marimarianations9355 ffs xD I never finished it back in the day

@@stephenrainda5838 that's because the Ubisoft team used real life historical figures in Black Flag, just as they do in every other Assassin's Creed game.

Gay pirates? Yep, gay pirates..

Wink

To wind down after basking in Moonglow, of course.

Tbh for me it's due to Black Flag

@@ab-bb1tu God hates flags!

I guess people know how to catch the wave of a trend, eh?

The date of his execution is approaching.

Idk man I'm just enjoying the "Bonnet Fever" He's such a meme of a pirate and deserves more attention

Definitely because of Internet Historian

I want it now!

i agree lol he is actually my great great great great great great great great great grandfather 😊

exactly

I’m thinking he should do a Biographics pirate queen Gráinne O'Malley....

It's time Biographics had a "Pirates" playlist.

They had notes from their Mums

As a crew 😌

Well, he was a pirate, being a role-model was hardly a requirement.

@@DinomotoMennovi lol it was a figure of speech it’s like saying he ain’t no saint either.

@@DinomotoMennovi technically Sir Francis Drake was a pirate in the eyes of everyone except the British. He's not exactly a bad choice for a role model. Neither is Henry Avery, who took the largest score in pirate history, escaped, and disappeared from history. In fact, most pirates weren't pillaging, town raiding rapists. The truth of the matter is, pirates were usually privateers who were abandoned by the country they served, and seeking a measure of revenge for the betrayal. While Naval vessels of the time were run like floating dictatorships, pirate vessels generally operated as maritime democracies. Courses, scores, and ports-of-call were chosen by committee, and scores were split fairly according to rank and length of service. Furthermore, pirates weren't in the business of slave trading, unlike the Navies they regularly engaged. Rather, pirates regularly seized slave ships, freed the "cargo", and left the slavers in the hands of their former captives. Any freed slave who wished to join a pirate crew was usually welcomed with open arms, as well. In most cases the stigma surrounding pirates is no more than sensationalist propaganda that was disseminated by the Spanish, English, and Dutch crowns. Pirates were dangerous folk, but they had to be. Pacifism would have meant certain death for any privateer after their commissions were revoked.

Maybe his family was shitty though
